I didn't want to go all the way back to the beginning of the program, so I decided to just run and see what happened.

Instead of Coach-to-5K, I have followed a Belgian program called start-2-run (5 K after 10weeks). In that book, there also a few other schemes, one (5K after 6 weeks) can be followed when you haven't been running for two months, but are still able to run for 10 minutes. If you'd like, I can post that scheme here... (Another scheme is 5K after 8 weeks, when you haven't been running during half a year. I started that in august after not having ran for 7 months).

@Sushigirl: Here is the three-week scheme. Conditions: - You haven't been running for a 2-3 months - You're able to run for 10 min. + = one minute running 0 = one minute walking Walk briskly for a few minutes to warm up before, walk for a few minutes to cool down afterwards.
