Thank you!!!!

I did it! After many years of failed starts and stops, I have officially finally finished the C25K 9 week program!

Congrats to all the recent graduates and please add me to the list!!!!!!! Finished W9D3 this morning!

Awesome!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm excited too! If the money situation is good enough after bills, I may treat myself to some new celebratory running shoes! :)

1/15 2.3 miles 1/16 3.99 miles 1/17 3.75 miles bringing me to 31.58. I'm zigziging along!!! Road zig-zigs to top of a steep bank and goes down for the last time. Can see across Woody End to the River. **THEY STOP TO REST, EAT, and REST more! (ca. 1:30-4:30 p.m.) Sun was beginning to get low as they went down the hill.

Thanks! Yea, I had to repeat a bit during week 4 I think. Maybe try to slow down a bit if that would help?

How has everyone been doing with their runs? Hope you all are having a great new year so far! I just finished W9D2 today. I'm looking forward to "graduating"! :) Hope you are all doing well!

Awesome! I do need some new shoes as well. Maybe this weekend!

I'm fairly new to blogging as well but I have one! http://skinnygeekwithin.blogspot.com/ I also created a fb page for my blog as well, the link can be found on my blog page! Can't wait to go back and read both of yours!

http://skinnygeekwithin.blogspot.com/ I've only started actively blogging recently so mine is relatively new! I did make a fb page for it as well. The link is on my blog! Can't wait to go back and read everyone's that posted so far!

^^ this! Just go at a pace you feel comfortable with! You can always work on time later!

Wow thank you for posting this. How appropriate and timely!

I can soooo relate to this post today. I've been feeling a bit like a failure lately with regard to my clothes sizes. Now I started at around 244 and I'm down 22 pounds now and I have not gone down in size as of yet. Now things are fitting better but I'm an immediate gratification type of girl. I want to see my clothes…

I have been trying to build an actual running playlist also with songs either about running or having "run" in the title. I'm probably showing my age but here are a few that I've come up with... I Ran - Flock of Seagulls Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush Run Runaway - Slade Runnin' with the Devil - Van Halen and one of my…

I have attempted the program off and on about 4 times now. This is by far the furthest I've come with it (W9D2 currently..). To say I have been inconsistent is an understatement ;) But.. oddly enough this time feels different. My plan is to still run 3 times per week and increase my time gradually until I can actually hit…

I'm normally not a huge fan of the crowds but if the weather is good, I wouldn't mind checking this parade out!

Awesome!!!!!!

Ok I'm caught up I think! I'm on the Roller Coaster road too! 21.54 miles so far. (Road rolls up and down.)

Oh my goodness! I need to do this with you guys! I've been wanting to do the Hobbit/LOTR challenge for a while now. I need to go back and see if I can calculate everything since Jan. 1st! Yay! This is awesome! BTW, HUGE HUGE LOTR dork here. My and my husbands wedding rings are the one ring! But not the evil one. :) We have…

Congrats on re-starting! I've *attempted* the program about 4 times now but this time is sticking! I'm on Week 9 as of today! You can do this!!!!

Wait can I name 3 from each season? There is just no way to limit it to only 3! LOL Ok IF I had to pick only 3... Blink Rose and I just loved The Unicorn and the Wasp and The Girl in the Fireplace and The Family of Blood UGH!!!

Blink first, then go back and watch all the episodes starting with Eccleston!

Sounds like a great plan!

Thats really what I'm planning to do as well. Just start increasing minutes until I can actually hit the 5K distance. Once, I can do that consistantly then I'll work on time. And once I get that done, then I'll work my way into longer than 5Ks. But baby steps at first!

Pahahaha Geez, you just made me spit my water out! Love it! Love River and everytime someone starts to tell me something I don't want to hear just yet, I do my best River Song impression and yell "SPOILERS"!

You aren't kidding!!!!! It really would be!

Bahahaha! that really was perfect!

Thanks guys!!! I felt like I was on top of the world yesterday! These small victories are piling up! How's everyones runs been going? Actually I'm probably the only person in South Louisiana who isn't a fan of King cake! I know, crazy right? Now if someone stuck a piece right in front of me I'd nibble on it but I don't go…

Tennant fan here! I don't actually hate Smith, but I tend to say that I prefer his companions more than just him. Kinda hard to explain. I don't think we will ever find a doctor as charasmatic as Tennant. He was just literally BORN to play the Doctor. (I did see that he and Georgia Moffett are expecting again - squee!) I…
