    I quit in the middle of my c25k program... :-/ I just restarted since I now have a better stroller. :) I hope to be able to make a "completed" brag about it in 7 weeks! :)

    Great job!!!!

    I'm pretty sure I cried a bit when I finished C25K back in January.

    I know for a fact I cried last night when I tried to run for 1 minute intervals! :laugh: Obviously, I dropped off the running train!

    I just did my final session of C25K! I cannot believe I am able to run 30 mins straight! 10 weeks ago I couldn't run for 30 seconds without feeling like I would pass out. So awesome how our bodies respond when we push them.

    I also hit the 1/3 mark for my weight loss journey this week.

    I'm a happy girl :-)


    quite simply inspirational

    I'm on week 2 again, having had to stop on week 3 due to illness.

    GOOD JOB!!! Have you signed up for a race? I'm doing my first one this weekend, even though I have another week on C25K to finish.

    I haven't signed up for a race yet, I'm not quite ready for public running (I use a treadmill in my basement). I am working on speed next, keeping it at 30 min runs. I'm hopeful it will help me keep my weight loss moving, and I'll be "race ready" in another 6 months or so :wink:

    I am so proud for you!!! I have started and stopped so many times. I have many excuses (like my running partner son overdid it and couldn't walk for a week) but I need to JUST DO IT!!

    I know what you mean about the public running. I really thought people would totally be judging the fat girl running. So I started in a park with a nature trail (ie away from a lot of people and traffic). No one pointed and laughed. I'll even run on the sidewalks now..in full view of traffic!

    I totally understand as I did c25k on my treadmill starting on 1/1/2012. Took my running outside a couple weeks ago. I go real early in the AM and had to back up to week 6 for 1 week as it is more difficult. Now working towards a charity 5k run/walk on June 9th. I know I will not be first, nor will I be last. I find pacing the hardest to get down so I do not start out to fast & burn myself out, but it is getting better. Do not be afraid to take it outside, just remember you are lapping anyone sitting on the couch.:flowerforyou:

    Great job! I actually just started this one, I was able to start with week 2 thankfully, and I am so excited to do a 5K! I went to the Ogden Marathon today and cheered for the runners, I want that to be me next year! It was so exciting to see all those people. I am going to be on week 2 day 2 tomorrow, looking forward to my run!
