Congrats. I jut finished my 2nd park run. Came in second to last I think. Oh well, loads of hills on that course and I could have stayed in bed so all positive thoughts!
Very well done Jen. I am sitting here THINKING about going for a run so you have certainly done a damn site better than me!

Hi all! Hoping to gate crash this thread.
I have just completed (earlier this morning) W1D2 of c25k. Planning on doing day 3 tomorrow. I know I should leave a days rest in between but couldn't run WTF this week cause I already had things on!
Got a feeling I'm gonna be sore in the morning, but used the power plates after my run, so hoping that eases the pain a bit...
Happy (?) Running folks

Well done!
I completed W1D1! Yay! I was sweating buckets at the end but I felt great, even did a couple of extra minute runs. It just proves to myself that I CAN do it. Think I will wait until Monday to try W1D2 but might jump on the treadmill for 20 minutes and run for a minute then walk for two, just to help improve my fitness.
Wow if I am ever able to run 20 minutes non stop I will be so happy, that is a fantastic achievement!

Congrats guys. Stick at it! I suspect I might need to rest for a few days, can barely move!

Hi all I complete C25K early last year. Never managed to run 5k though. Hoping to get back to running but at the moment I have bronchitis, it's easing off but my chest still feels a bit tight.. I'm also away next week so hoping to restart when back.
Happy running everyone x

Well done you like you when I started in February 2013 I could barely manage 60s having never ran/jogged before. Size 18 then part way through my 13.5 stone weight loss journey I am now a size 12 and contribute jogging hugely to helping my weight loss. Today's jog
What app are you using. And did you find that running helped with the weight Loss.
I found for a few weeks I stayed the same but noticed inch loss which is just as good to me x

Sorry Maria I have only just seen this! It hadn't been going very well since xmas, having 2 weeks off with cold and festivities really seemed to take its toll. My PT suggested allocating 2 nights a week to just running (I'd been adding runs to other classes so was already tired when I got on the treadmill) and tonight I went determined to break 3 mins......I did! I did Wk3R1 but with an extra 90secs run to finish. I have a class tomorrow but going to push through again Thursday. I feel a bit like I have broken the pain barrier so will keep going! I have to now, against my better judgement, I agreed to sign up for the Reebok Spartan race in August so I have to ramp up the training now!
Well done to everyone else on the journey

Well I joined my local running club for a 6k tonight. Really held up the group but they didnt seem to mind doubling back. Really having trouble with breathing since it's got colder, gp reckons it's a resurfacing of asthma I had 9 or so years ago but the inhaler didn't help tonight...
