Yeah for you Willow. I have such a struggle running and doing short intervals to get myself up to running more often. It's definitely a process. Let me know how it goes! I can run for about 1 min at a speed of about 5.0 on the treadmill before I have to stop, then walk for 2 min at 3.5 then run again. My goal by the end of May is to be able to run at 5.0 for 5 min and/or a whole song (long one) on my IPOD!
YAAY!! I've been there and I know it feels great so congrats! I'm towards the end of the C25K program now, I lost track of what week though lol. I do a 5 minute warm up and then just run for as long as I can which is around 2.25-2.5 miles. I love this program it really helps! Good luck!

that's exactly where i am at! running at 5mph, walking at 3.5mph.
Woo hoo! That's awesome! I braved it and tried running for a couple of one min. intervals the other night...I managed a collective 2 mins. Hard to believe I used to run cross country!
Keep up the great work, before you know it, you'll be running more and more!
