Hi, The runs are going well. I really need new shoes! My shins hurt even though I stretch. My shoes are old and I'm pretty sure it's their fault. I have to wait until the end of next week when my husband gets paid.

VanCityGirl will you ever come back? How are you?

Candles what point fo the plan are you on?

Hope you are all doing well!

Hi. Had to take a week off as my daughter had a nasty cold and I couldn't take her to the health club day care. I started again today at the beginning of week three. The second three minute run was kinda tough but I got through it. I've been listening to "Flood" by They Might be Giants. Have you ever heard of them? They a really fun band. I was listening to disco before. "I Will Survive" is great to run to.
Are you doing the cool runnings program? When I asked which part of the program ou were on that's what I was referring to.
I hope you are doing well.

Hey Jen!!

I started the Couch to 5k about 3 weeks ago!! I didn't know there was a thread for it

My dd had some minor surgery on her foot and as caretaker my routine has been abbreviated....but I am still working the program.

Congrats on your 20 mins. that is awesome!!

Hope you keep it up...and if you have already given up..then let's get motivated again!!

Hey. I'm so glad this is active again!!!!!!!
I was supposed to start the 25 minutes runs on Monday but this week has been freakishly busy. I can start - right where I left off - on Monday. I really like this program. There were a couple of runs when I thought I would stop running early. I kept up every time, though and felt so proud of myself.
I never thought I'd be able to run, much less start running at 35. Sorry I lost track of this challenge thread. I'm so glad you're both here. Tell me how it is going for you both.

Yikes. What a week. I think it's getting better (knocking wood!). My daughter has been too sick to go to the gym's day care. I think we'll make it in on Friday, though.
This is the longest I've gone without running since I started and I hope it won't be too tough. I plan on doing 25 minutes even though I've taken almost 2 weeks off.
How is everyone else holding up?
