2 years ago I too started Robery Ullery's c25k. Since then I have lost 25 pounds, have run 13.1 miles on the treadmill in 1:50, and am plannng my first half marathon in Nov '10.
No matter how far you go just be proud of all you have done and keep on going.
Thanks for making this, it helps because I am starting my Couch-to-5K program tomorrow, so it gives me an idea of what to expect. Its also very motivational! Noah
Too monitor myself I use the Podrunners podcast which is excellent, but I also run the mapmyrun application for iphone (Free version). The app tells me the distance I've run, the average pace, calories burned and all that stuff. No need for a treadmill. If I had a treadmill I would do it on rainy days but something about exercising in the outdoors and actually moving around feels powerful. I live in Florida though so it is quite easy with the weather here in the winter.
Outside you pace yourself to the beat of the music. The beats per minute are higher each week. Podrunner also has free podcasts. I think I like Ullery's better. I use both. I also signed up for 2 5K's. How exciting that all these post-obese people are become RUNNERS!! I love it! The WLS forum has a board for C25K for us to all talk. I also record my mile time once a month to see how much I improve. My goal is a 10 minute mile. So proud of you for running! Good luck~ cheri
Wow, Cheri, thanks for the info...I had no idea about the beat of the music, that's pretty cool! When are your races? I'm with you, I'd love to be doing a 10-minute mile by April when I run my race. Thanks for all your help with the running! :)
I'm starting this program tomorrow! Any advice / tips on this program?
