Sounds like a great plan! I was doing Jillian's 30DS on the C25K rest days but found it way too much to cope with - now I think you're even more awesome for graduating C25K whilst doing RI30 as well! :love: My Get Running app is actually 9 weeks - so two weeks to go! Out of interest, what app/planning tool do you use to…

I'm so glad to have week 7 over! Day 1 was great, I was able to speed up for the last five minutes and felt like I could've carried on at the end, but Days 2 and 3 were such a struggle. Day 2 I felt like every part of me was aching by the time that run ended, and it seemed to stretch on forever! Day 3 wasn't as bad as day…

Wow congratulations on graduating! You'll be up to 5k in no time at all!

Great work everyone!

Hi All, Week 6 Run 3 completed yesterday. It seemed like the time flew by, and I actually ran faster for the last five minutes. My new running trainers are super comfy too - no shin issues :happy: Can't wait to get started on Week 7!

I took all my quit-smoking anger/stress out on dairy milk chocolate buttons... That's kinda how I ended up here though so that's probably not the best option :noway: If you can't have gum, try sucking extra strong mints - this helped me when I ran out of chocolate. And if you're in a relationship, send some anger their…

Hi Everyone After two long, frustrating weeks of rest from running, I'm officially back with the programme! Last night I ran Week 6 Run 1 (again) and was pleasantly surprised to find it pretty straightforward, I thought I'd have struggled a bit more after such a long time off. My shins feel fine today so fingers crossed…

Wow, I was really surprised to see my name up there! Well done to everyone :flowerforyou:

So cute!

Hey everyone! I made it through Week 5 Day 3 on Sunday - that dreaded 20 minute run wasn't as bad as I expected! I start week 6 tonight, I'm actually really surprised at how quickly the weeks seem to fly past, I mean week 6 already??!! Just a quick question, sometimes when run I feel my shins start to ache. I wouldn't say…

Awesome, thanks for the ideas!

First off I'd do the usual - pay off debts / help family out etc. Then I'd open a Rabbitery. I've always wanted pet rabbits, but my boyfriend always says it'd be too hard finding someone to look after them if we go on holiday. It's easy to put the cats in a cattery, but I've not yet found somewhere that would take small…

Last night I ran Week 5 Day 1! I thought a lot about repeating week 4 again instead but in the end decided to go for it, and it was better than i expected. I'm still not convinced I'll get through days 2 and 3 but I'll go for it and see what happens!

Hi, I just started 30DS yesterday. I plan to do 30DS 4 times week (as I'm already doing C25K three times a week). Height = 5 ft 5 CW = 132 Ultimate Goal Weight = 120 My goals from 30DS: 1) to be able to do some of the moves! Right now I can't do push ups - even the modified version I really struggle with. So, hopefully by…

So I took your great advice and ran at a slower pace last night and... got through week 4 day 1! I (slowly) ran a whole 5 minutes without stopping... twice! It did make me laugh when the app started off with 'we'll be doing two long runs of 5 mins and two short runs of 3 mins' seeing as how just three days ago 3 mins was…

Congratulations! I quit smoking on 1st October 2012. I used an E-cig for the first two months before giving it up completely. For me, the difficulty was changing my routine. I am a creature of habit, it was less about craving cigarettes and more about it being 'time' for a cigarette because that's what I always did at 11am…

Hi, this sounds like a lovely idea please count me in :flowerforyou:

Hi, I just finished week 3 of C25K yesterday and will be starting week 4 on Thursday :noway: Pretty nervous about the jump from 3min runs to 5min, I struggled enough with the 3mins! Will give it a go though and may end up repeating week 3 if I don't feel I'm quite there yet :ohwell: My runs have been indoors - up and down…

Hi I'm Emma, I live in Derbyshire but originally from Essex. Feel free to add me anyone.
