my mini C25K victory!

Congratulations! In the weeks to come, you'll wonder why any of it scared you so much. Running is more about your mind than your body. I mean, yes, it's about your body, but it's your mind that will keep you from being able to do it. Don't listen to your brain when it says, "That's too hard." Just try it anyway. Your body will surprise you.

And for those of you just starting: there's no shame in taking it slow, repeating weeks, taking your time. Getting through it is an amazing feeling--and soon you just might want to kick it up to a 10K or half marathon and then you'll be even more amazed at what you can do!

That's awesome!!!!!!!!! I started the program in January, and am currently on week 8. I have never been a runner, but now i don't know what I'd do without it. It's crazy to think that I feel like I've been missing out on something. Week 5 was the week the had me going, "You want me to WHAT?!" And, I kinda have to admit, there have been times I have felt like that since. But, I am now running almost 3 miles completely and run my first 5k on the 31st Good luck with the rest!! You will do great. Just remember, you will have good runs and bad runs. Don't get discouraged when those bad days happen

That is so AWESOME, congratulations!!!!! I can't wait for my ankle to get better so I can re-start my couch 25k.

My sister told me about it today but I am scared! I have a LOT of weight to lose and pronated arches. Even walking and yoga hurt my feet but I don't care I am gonna keep working out....but I am thinking about doing this...it would be nice to get those same looks from runners and athletes! Hahahaha! That would be pretty cool!

Way to go!!! I just atarted and on week 1 day 2 so I appreciate the inspiration! Thanks for sharing!

I love it! Running was so difficult for me until I found (and actually followed) a C25K-like program! Your mini-victories will continue, I am sure. Congrats!
