For those that started C25K today how did you do.
I didn't do well. I didn't run for all 60 seconds at a time. Heres to hoping tomorrow will be a better day. Do you think that its important to take a day off in between or can it just be any three days in the week. Good luck to everyone else. Lets keep going!

I did all right, but would've liked to do better. I started out with some serious shin splinting (that went away after a couple rounds of stretching in between) and ended with hip pain I couldn't even jog on anymore. I finished, though! Here's hoping Thursday's better.0

I did great! Probably mostly due to excitement lol. Immediately after I did a one hour personal training session and I made it through that too!
I'm sure next week is going to be rough though....
Great job everyone!0 -
I did W4D1 yesterday. run 3 mins, walk 2.5, run 5 mins, walk 3, run 3, walk 2.5, run 5. I was so proud of myself at 250lbs to be able to do that!
I think it is a good idea to take a break and only do it every other day, especially if you have a tendancy like me to push myself really hard and then burn out.
Next week I am working nights 6:30pm-8am and so I'm hoping that with Sophie on her bike and the triplets on their scooters that I will be able to take them along with me. I have no other childcare but this is so important to me that I am even considering hiring a sitter just for that 30 mins every other day!
Well done you guys who started yesterday. xx0 -
It. Was. Awesome. I was so proud of myself. I ended up moving my workout INSIDE because it was storming at our house. Day 1 was a 5 minute warm up, intervals of 60 seconds running, then 90 seconds walking, for a total of 20 minutes, followed by the 5 minute cool down. I walked at 3.2 mph on the treadmill, and ran at 4.9! In 30 minutes, I completed 1.89 miles! I felt comfortable, I never had to stop early, or slow down, and I could breathe! I honestly (can’t believe I am saying this) can’t wait to go running tonight. #****INSTOKED!!!
Sadly, my little Harley dog didn't get to run with me last night. She is excited for our run tomorrow though!!!0 -
I am on W2D2 and just sore from the last workout but trying to stay with it.
Did anyone sign up for a 5K race yet for when you will be done with training?0 -
