couch to 5k program

Has anyone actually done this? I am planning on starting tomorrow but I am not a runner at all. I would like to be though! I want to see if this program is actually successful!

Re: couch to 5k program

My theory before couch to 5k was that I didn't run unless somebody was chasing me.

Now, I love it! I've been doing it for 6 weeks (but I repeated 2 of the weeks since I didn't feel ready to go on - I'm starting week 5 tomorrow).

Good luck!

Re: couch to 5k program

I did it also, it was a great program! I signed up for a 5k when I first started the program and used that as motivation to keep going! I really loved running, but stopped when it got cold outside.

I need to get back into shape after having a bay and plan to do it again, I think I'ss do the same thing and sign up for a 5K to work towards.

This is a podcast I downloaded

I did the first couple of weeks of it when I was first trying to start running again after taking some time off when I was pregnant. I loved the Ullrey podcasts! I never finished the program because I just skipped ahead and starting running, but I think if you're completely new to running it is a great program!
