Couch to 5K (C25K) beginners group
Anyone recently started C25K? I completed the program in 2016 and it was great. I was running 30/40 minutes 3x a week non stop for over a year after, so I know it works! Starting again after not running for years and it’s like I’ve never ran in my life. Was it this hard to start last time?😰 Just completed W1D2 today with…

I’ve been off and on here

All progress crashing down
Hi people. I am currently on a 30 day vacation here in China. I'm struggling to keep in shape and keep my mindfulness and discipline. There is close to no healthy food available as my grandma always makes the most oily and carb high food (noodles, dumplings, etc) It is very hot here in China as there was just a heat wave…

Help! - Couch to 5km/ Fitbit distance issue
I started using the couch to 5km app and also wear my Fitbit when I run. It’s been a few weeks and I have only been using the app and then just recently started tracking the run with my Fitbit as well and found out that they have a 1km discrepancy between them! Maybe even a bit over… I was shocked and super discouraged. I…

Foot numbness/aching from running
In the past few days, my foot has been aching and I have numbness on the outside sole, near the pinky toe. X-ray showed nothing unusual. Doctor declared it plantar fasciitis. It's a bit of a catch-all for every non-specific foot problem. I read that it's unusual to have numbness associated with it. Anyone else gotten…

Total v.s. Active Calorie Expenditure from Garmin
Hi I have noticed that my activities from Garmin are synced into MFP, it takes "Total Calories" as expenditure. Total calories of an activity is base calories + active. Since MFP gets a base budget based on basal calorie expenditures (i.e. calorie expenditure based on activity level, age, weight etc.), I think it will be…
