Hi everyone!!
I am sort of a newbie to the C25K. I ran/walked an 8K last year at the VA Beach Shamrock and loved it. Had surgery the next month and didn't run again.
Today will be my first W1D1 run and I am hoping to pull my 14yo son along with me...well he'll be pulling me along probably... he runs all the time in football practice at least 3 miles a day soooo I'm hoping he'll be an encouragement. 
Is anyone else in week 1?
Looking forward to meeting everyone!! |

Hi turtlechick!
Congratulations on starting the program. I'm such a fan as it seems like magic in how easy it is to progress quite literally from sitting on the couch to being a runner!
I'm just starting week four and was really happy with how nicely my week three went. Each run was just enough of a challenge to remind me that I'm doing something new - but easy enough to be amazed that I was doing that much better than the week before in terms of time running and distance covered.
This group is a great place to come for inspiration and support. |
