Was wondering the same thing

Great that you're getting your kid involved. I hope to do the same with mine. Trying to get my dad on the trail but not happening. Have fun!

Marc, I hope you continue to enjoy running. Rob

I hope it's not too late. I am 60 and I downloaded the app 4 days ago; day before yesterday I went for my first C25K workout. Who knew I was that out of shape? I used to weigh #313 and now I am down to #215 through portion control and common sense. My goal is #180. My neighbor turned me on to the app. He started about 6 months ago and now routinely runs 5-7 mies a day. Of course, he is 20 years younger than me too, but hey, it's a goal, right? Today was my second day. I love the app and I did as someone suggested and put the iPhone in my pocket instead of looking at it. I did great and I did also use my treadmill this evening just to walk off some stiffness. When I got a little disappointed in my pace I thought about the quote here someone said, "Regardless of your speed, you are moving faster than the guy on the couch." That's good enough for me. For now.

I would move on the with the program. Building up the endurance will improve your pace. Once you have a good foundation (say running for 30 minutes to hour straight), mixing in some intervals will help ( say one workout a week). Good job with making it this far... Rob
