Started C25K this week! Treadmill speeds?
I'm not a runner. I make the joke "I only run if someone is chasing me with a knife." But I really want to be a runner. So after talking about it for months, I finally decided to start! I went with the C25K program so I had something to stick to, and so I didn't go too far too fast at first. I've completed the first two…

After C25K, how to increase speed.
I am currently on week 7 of the C25K plan (my app has it lasting 8 weeks.) I am doing my training on a treadmill for now, until the weather warms up a bit, and I am running really slow at 5.0 mph (12 minute miles.) Once I finish the program, I want to work on my speed. I would like to get to under 10 m/m, at least, but…

C25k week 5 failed

In between C25K days...workout?

I do the program usually on MWF (this week, finals week is threatening to get in the way but I'm trying to push through!) Should I be doing more cardio? Or some strength based activities? I can't really get to the gym,…

I have a question about total calories and protein?
I am 18, 5'5", and weigh 123 pounds. I would like to lose about 5-10 pounds (my target weight is 113, so I think that's good) According to myfitnesspal, I should be eating 1290 calories a day, with my protein at 48 grams. I have already exceeded my protein for today, and it's not even dinner! I had cheerios for breakfast…
