Hi! I'm new to running and pretty much believed that the only reason to run was if you are being chased. And even then, negotiating may be an option. But since the zombie apocalypse is near I thought maybe I should learn this survival skill. Just kidding (not about the zombies...). So I started the C25K and I am on W4D2 tomorrow. I won't lie, this stuff is tough. I think a big problem is not warming up enough or stretching enough. Like I get through the whole workout sometimes before it stars to feel ok. Sometimes, it's fine, though. I haven't figured it out quite yet. Most of the time I will run/walk for about 20-30 minutes after. At this stage, if I ran a 5K race people coming to see me would have to set up camp. I'm slooooooooow.
How fast are you guys going? How are you feeling during the workout? Is it hard for you? Do you have any tips? Are you running to music? Do you run according to the BPM?
It looks like the program I'm using has you running for distance at 6 weeks. I'm terrified. LOL
