I got a champion sports bra from sports authority that keeps the girls in place very well. I can even do jumping jacks and such in it. Might be worth a look if you want to run.

Tomorrow is W2D2 for me! It's a fantastic program.

I started running ealier this year then took a break for the past month. I started again Sunday. My level is W3D1.

I typically use an MP3 player for my runs. Downloaded a set of C25k podcasts today that plays music and announces when to change speeds during each run. Will try it tonight.

Feel Free to friend me.

I did w1d2 today. Not run in 10+ years, but I actually feel really good!
I normally walk, cycle and dance so running is something new to add!

If anyone wants to add me, I'd love it!

Ps defo get a sports bra, such a huge difference to keep the boobies down than up in your face :-D

I would! just started on monday, tomorrow will be my second run. I use the Get Running App - I really like it because a voice tells you when to run, when to walk half way/point etc and no issues with playing tunes at the same time.

Did week w5d2 last night .. Honestly the two 8 minute jogging intervals almost scared me right off the treadmill .. Went on with it anyways .. and to be honest its really not that bad!!! I slowed my jogging pace down back in week 3 and kept that pace through 4 and into 5. the first 8 minutes passed really good ... the last 3 minutes of the second were a bit rough but just pushed through it .. I think i may do it again tonight and tommorrow just to prepare myself for day 3..

I just downloaded FreeC25K.

Feel free to add me as a friend. I'm on Week 3 Day 2 and I am not a runner by any means!

I did week 1, day 2 today. Anybody else C25K, add me!

I had 2 off days between day 1 and day 2, because day 1 had my muscles so sore for the next 2 days. Yeah, stretching would be a good idea!

Day 1 I didn't have music, day 2 I had the soundtrack to Chicago playing in the background. I can only imagine what I must have looked like as I was running, and wiggling to some of the jazzier licks in the music.

Somebody talked about painful boobs - any suggestions for a bra that actually keeps the girls from bouncing so painfully? I got a new sports bra, it's soft & comfy, but doesn't seem to do much for the bounce control. Seems worse than a normal bra in that area.

I have the Moving Comfort Maia, I love it. It is comfortable and it really controls the girls.


I use the Ease into 5K app, I really like it, There is a counter on top that tells you what run/walk you are on (run 2 of 9, etc) You can create a playlist, the app is free. I upgraded and added the GPS for .99 so that it also tracks my route. It breaks down my overall speed, running speed, walking speed, calories, etc.

I have done W1D1 for 3 days, and am going to do it at least one more time until I can make it through all the run segments comfortably.

Slowing my running pace down helped tremendously in being able to get through the entire thing, also getting fitted for proper shoes is key.

Hi everyone, I just started with this program. I just moved in, the summer promises to be beautiful, and the gym is way too expensive: this way I'll also get to know my neighbourhood better
w1d1 today, I feel so good, and I hope I will be able to stick through it :sick:

Add me for mutual support !

I have been DYING to find somebody to do this with me. I NEVER run and I need to start! I could use the motivation! It sounds like we are at the same fitness level! Add me if you'd like!

I just downloaded the app (just searched C25K for Android and it came up right away), I've been walking outside for 6 weeks and have had the urge to start running, so I think it's time! Going to get the right support tonight (large chested friends you know what I mean), looking forward to seeing how this works. Even walking I've been running into some joint pain though in knees and hips, any suggestions? Friend recommended Flex-a-min......? If I'm going to gear up to start switching to walking/running want to get everything at once and do this thing right!

Let's hope! Last week threw a loop into my good intentions and the 100+ degree temps makes me do my stuff at like, 10 at night, so want to get started on this by end of month. Let me know how you're progress goes and I might get motivated beyond downloading the app and working on my playlist lol!
