I tried to start it, and realized i was in worse shape than I thought . I couldn't get past the day 1 in 2 months of trying 3 days a week. I even tried to do the run every other time even instead of every time. So good luck to you. Maybe post surgery I will have more success. I wish there was a couch to 5K for beginner beginners. LOL.

I'm on Week 6...gotta run 25 minutes tomorrow! It's tough but doable.

I'll be starting couch to 5K on January 3rd. I've been doing some tests of day one of the program using different smartphone apps to see which app works best for me. I've noticed it is way easier to do on the elliptical than on the treadmill or outdoors .

I am starting January 9th. I have attempted it before. It is difficult, but if you do it at your own pace- it is always great. Look on youtube for BandedWendy, losingitwithrebecca or newtoy4kt. They have all done it and you can look in their vlogs to see their tips. They are all banders.. so they have great advice. Wendy is the farthest out (2.5 years) then Katie and then Rebecca. All great. Good luck!!

Thanks all for replying I heard about C25K from banded wendy, follow her on Facebook, and did good this week. I did the 3 days at my own pace. so far so good, good luck to all starting after the new year! I got from Wendy a cool site that has good music. I didnt download since I have a loaded Itouch but will over the break.

The site is: Kissmyblackass.org
