C25k in 2015

  • I'm seeing a C25k for 2014, but no posts since November, and just a couple of individual threads asking questions. Is it ok to start a 2015 thread? I've promised several people I'll be racing this year, and I've got to start training. Anyone else working on it?
  • I am! This fall got the best of me and I went 5+ months without running. I'm young and have always been athletic, so I may abbreviate it a little bit. I'm excited to get back into the running habit as I always feel so much better. Today I'm finishing up week 1.
  • Hi
    Yes I've just finished week 4! I've been on it since the end of summer because I've had to take a couple of long breaks due to one reason or another. But I'm back on it! Can't say I'm as motivated as I once was, which is disappointing, but I go to the gym 3 times a week now anyway so it is something I just automatically do as soon as I get there. Hope I'll find myself enjoying it again once I get past week 5 (which is as far as I've gotten over the past 6 months!)
  • maybe I'm alone here but I had to say it somewhere...
    I completed W5D3 today and ran 20 minutes straight!! Wooo!
  • I'm going to start in a couple of months, I hope. I want to get my weight down more before I start to protect my bad knee...
  • I would like to start this program and stick with it. I've started and stopped twice now. I haven't exercised for a while, so I'm totally out of shape. I feel like I need to ease into this. My goal this week is to walk on the treadmill daily, even if its just for 10 minutes. I figure if I at least get on it daily, I'll be more willing to follow a plan in the following week or 2.

    I'll be back if I can get my act together and get started.
  • Good luck psychic! This is my third attempt at doing it and it's well worth it! I got this far before and gave up because I moved back to uni, now I'm doing at uni I'm more positive that I'll keep it up! It's not been great at burning calories so far but I feel like it's given me the tools to burn more calories! I'm on week 6 day 2 tomorrow, the last of the interval training, and I'm really looking forward getting back to the longer runs as I run the intervals faster and I feel like I want to die by the end of it :P
  • Good for you guys!! I am training for a half marathon again and need motivation! Hopefully this site can help me too.
