Hi Maverick,
You don't have to wait, it just checks that you are sure you want to miss a rest day. X

Thanks for that, I didn't want to undo week 1's work by being too keen!!

Started week 2 today and did find it quite tough if im honest, but in my head if other people can do it and do it well then so can I!! Since I have recovered a bit I am looking forward to getting more runs under my belt and feeling fitter!!

How are you finding week 7 woodland girl
 
Hi Vicki. I did it wrong so it was hard! I did last day of week 6 and then didn't have a rest day just went straight into 7!!!
So I started feeling a little tired and stiff and although I completed it my legs were wobbly all day!! Lol

So, yeah, it's fine but I know see how much rest days help, I was too cocky! Lol
Still love it though b

How are you getting on?

Well I ran 5K last night, which took longer than 30 mins, but have decided I'm still calling it Week 9, Day 1. I'll run two more like that, then call C25K done!

Well done everyone on your progress. I love that we're all saying things like 'I never imagined / I wouldn't have believed / When I started, the 3 minute runs were hard / etc. This just shows what we're all capable of doing!

I know, its mad isnt it - I still cant get over the fact that I'm so hooked.

Will we be seeing some of you guys on the "I will run 100 miles" thread soon?

Don't think you'll be seeing me on a 100 mile run! I am enjoying it and am really pleased with what I've achieved so far but I'd still be doing 100 miles a week later the speed I run! X
