Starting again.I like the Couch-to-5k program. At least the first week... I have never finished program, but I want to start again. I often neglect running for weight training, even though I know they are both important. Yesterday, when I started, my knees were killing me after the first 10 minutes. I finished it off on the elliptical machine. I hope my knees get used to it so I can do the whole thing running. Posted by absmith on Feb. 26, 2008 at 01:53PM |

I am starting Week 2 this evening. I am certainly surprised by how difficult running is compared to the Elliptical. But I am also suprised by how quickly the body adapts. My third run was already much easier than my first run in week 1. I have read a lot of success stories with this program, and I hope to be one more of those success stories.

Done with week 1My knees handled the latest run much better than the first... Must be getting used to the pound or something. Posted by absmith on Feb. 29, 2008 at 02:14PM |

Stopped...Always on the quest to better my workout.... I started a Body-for-LIFE challenge this week with some friends, and it has a different cardio routine. Pretty intense, but only 3 times a week for 20 minutes. I did Body-for-LIFE about 6 years ago and really made a big difference in my overall physique. I'll probably jump back to 5K training at the end, but I will be far from the couch stage. Posted by absmith on Mar. 12, 2008 at 04:11PM |
