  • I'm have some Ascic's I bought a year ago. But I've finally figured out that my foot tends tilt out so I'm wondering if I need to look for another pair of shoes. Definitely going to check out youtube though. I'm hoping that some localized stretching and some yoga will sort this out

  • I was stuck on Day 1 of Week 5 for 2 weeks.

  • I actually started on the 1st as well and finished my second run of week 1 today. I'm using a treadmill (I'm currently manually adjusting the speeds to 3.8 for walking and 5.0 for running) since there is way too much slush and ice. I had done the C25K once before, but only got to two weeks. I'm doing okay at the current…
