Couch to 5K - Week of 25 – 01 December

Hi everyone,

this is our nineth week in the Couch to 5K program. This is designed to be a 9 week program, but you can repeat weeks (as I will be doing) until you are comfortable moving on. However, you are not supposed to skip weeks.

It has been strongly suggested by trainers and runners alike to NOT run on consecutive days.

More information can be found here: Cool Running :: The Couch-to-5K Running Plan

Please go to the cool running site to view your week’s detail.

Anyone is free to join, no matter where we are!!

This is the place to check in and support with each other and see how it is going.

What week are you doing?

How is it going for you? Is it too difficult / too easy?

Any comments??

Good luck everyone!

Hey thanks. Im still sickly with a sinus infection. I took night quill last night and my alram goess off at 4am and there was NO way i could get up. I feel guilty of course now. I will try and get over there tonight.

I have shin splints yet again! ugggh... so i did the b ike today and plan to run on wednesday. I may end up spreading week 7 out for 2 weeks since we'll be in Rome for my workout 2 and 3. I'm not upset about that though because week 7 is the first week of just running. so i think it's ok to just keep running and not worrying about what week i am on.

good job whos ya! way to go!

[losingjusme 12]

Keep going Karen!

Here is week 9 workout 1. I didnt put the 5min warm up on there just running and cool down.

Pretty weak but i have a nasty sinus infection so i slowed it down.
