I completed my first 5k this morning with a time of 36:31. My goal was 36:00 so I'm very happy with my time! I finished C25k in early May and have been running a few times a week to keep up with it. I'm so proud of myself. I never thought I would be able to do this at 190 lbs. I can't wait to see how much faster I can run it with another 20lbs gone!

    Awesome! I'm doing C25K also and have my first 5K in 2 weeks and have a similar time goal to yours (great job!) but my real goal is just to keep running throughout the whole thing.
