Thanks Sofartogo,Biggysmalls,Eatwell & LilyintheValley! I forced myself to go out yesterday even though it was warm. I ran in a wooded area so it was shaded but still felt tough. I was so pleased to complete the plan just got to keep it up now! next plan is to speed up a little bit. Including...

Hi Sweet Pink, my plan is just to try and run 3-4 times a week. Not sure I want to try for 10k but I would like to work on speeding up a little lol! I am doing just over 5k now but taking me around 40 mins

Thank you Sofartogo. I just need to take a few days rest I think as my knees are a mess at the moment. I was gutted as I really want to finish the plan before I go on holiday in 4 weeks.

:mad::cry::o I went out running before and ended up falling over what I thought was rubble but turned out to be some concrete! so I have grazes to both hands and really bad ones on both knees! what a stupid cow I am!!! one knee is very swollen as well and both are very painful..GUTTED!

Just updating... I didn't have the energy to do so last night! Sofartogo - I was looking at a program called pooch to 5k, I was thinking about taking one of my Jack Russell dogs out with me. She isnt 1 year old until July so I might wait until then. It seems to follow the human plan which will...

I think you can create your own plans here Running | ASICS United Kingdom

Thanks for the support Gemini76. I am just worried as it was the last run I would have that had walking breaks in it! I struggled to run 10 minutes how the hell am I going to do 25 mins :cry:. I know I did 20 mins last week so I know my body can do it just doubting my mindframe. I am going to...

I ran last night and hated every damn minute of it! my legs felt like lead and I was so slow. Not sure what was wrong but it is the 1st time I have felt like that :sigh: Karen.hat (week 2 day 3 complete) Margery Dawe (week 3 Day 1 ) ChocolateTrish (week 3, day 1 done) misspinky8 (week 1 day 0)...

Well done Charmel and Sweet pink

Gemini76, I cannot believe I am on week 6 either! I think in a strange way I prefer the longer timed runs rather than the run, walk, run, walk options. My legs seem to be more tired if that is possible! :D:happy096: well done in finishing the plan Gemini76!!!!!!

No problem mandy296. I am not yet at that stage yet but I think it is a great idea. Just not ready to run with real runners yet

Thank you Gemini76! I dont know what I would do without all the support I get from here from all you lovely people x Just hope my damn weightloss speeds up. 46 days until my holiday, not that I am counting and I want to feel comfortable on the beach :o

OMG biggysmalls I would have been scared as well! Glad you managed to get back to the main road. I ran in some woods last week and I was on edge while in there. It was lovely to be away from people but I was aware that it could be a little risky. Maybe I will try running with one of the dogs! Do...

Hello All, I have been lurking on this thread for a few days now and I finally picked up the courage to try the C25K. I am on week 1 and completed run 2 last night. I have enjoyed hearing all your motivational stories and I am hoping that I can complete the training. I might not be the faster...

Thanks, I think I will need a lot of luck!
