| I'm into week 3 - running for 3 minutes at a time. Wow. I never would've thought I could do it and I love it. I'm excited to try week 4. After that, I'm terrified ;) Good luck to you all. Keep in touch with how its going for you.

I started doing the Couch to 5k back in early May. It's a great program. You start out by running for just 60 seconds then walking for 60 seconds. Over 9 weeks you get up to running 30 minutes or 3 miles three times a week.
Unfortunately, I was injured in late May (not from running) and only made it through the first 3 weeks of the program. The doctor said I needed to take a month break from high impact activities, such as running. I will resume the program next Thursday. I can't wait to restart the program.

Today was my first day doing Couch to 5k!! Yay!! I can't wait to see what it will be like at the end of the nine weeks.
The best is yet to come!

I started doing that program in January of this year. It really improved my ability and strength. I actually stopped running right at the end of it because I got super busy. I have been meaning to start up again but have not had much time. I would definitely recommend you try it, it really helped me. There are also sparkteams dealing with this as well. You should check them out.

| I'm not in the program currently but I just wanted to send my C25K well wishes. I started C25K on Jan 1st and "graduated" on March 4th by running my very first 5k race. Since then I've gone on to run a 10K and I'm currently training for a marathon coming up in December. I am living proof that this program works. Stick with it and you'll be able to do your own 5k in a few weeks!
