Sorry, but you need to explain more what you are trying to do...

Good to hear from you again! Under 8min pace is very impressive!

Yes. It is common mistake - running too fast. You need to find your pace. Do not worry about speed, it will come. At the beginning your main goal is to complete the day and feel good about it. Since first three weeks are the same daily (you can peek at them in the app, or google "C25K" for text schedule) you can move on o the next day. But it is OK to repeat days or weeks if you want to be more sure in your strength.

Yes, Amie. This is name of this topic....

Jschaferhess, try to do week 9 and you see that you are gaining speed. There are some special training for speed increase - google it. But it is hard (would be for me) to hit two targets at once - speed and distance Wednesday 0.5mi walking, 3.5mph 1.5mi jogging, 5.4mph 0.3mi walking, 3.8mph All with 3.5% incline

Monday 0.5mi walking, 3.5mph 1.0mi jogging, 5.3mph 0.6mi walking, 3.8mph All with 3.5% incline

First you have to switch from Mac to PC (programmers joke). It is normal, I am sitting behind computer 8 hours at work and then 2-3 hours at home. But before I started C25K I did few month walking. So my start of the program was OK, however my pace was more schlepping than jogging. Please keep trying the first week, but reduce the pace to "cannot run any slower". Replace any minutes you cannot run with double time walking. Also add walking in "between days".

Friday 0.3mi walking, 3.2-3.8mph 0.7mi jogging, 5.1mph 0.3mi walking, 3.8mph All with 3.5% incline 15k steps today total.

The app schedule 3 days per week! And it is good for the most of us.the rest days could be used to train your other muscles or just walk.

10mi walking is a lot...it is about 3.5 hour, isn't it?

I took almost 4 weeks off from running - back and hip bugged me more than usual. But I kept walking 12k steps daily (well 90 % of the time) Today I carefully started my treading back into running: 1.6mi walking, 3.2mph-3.8mph 0.5mi jogging, 5mph all with 3.5% incline.

Do what I did - go very slow (schlepping ). And it is really OK if you need to repeat W3D1-3. C25K is just a schedule. It works well for most, but if you have to - adjust it for your physical current state.

Back in April I have failed W4D1 with 6.5mph and 3% incline. Since then I was continue to run three times per week and got much fitter. So I tried to run w4D1 today : Wednesday - revisiting Week 4 Walk - 0.35mi, 3.5mph, 3% W4D1 All walks are 3.8mph, 4% incline All runs are 6.5mph, 3% I have completed it but it was tougher than I thought. And I think I now know why - these short 'rest' walking intervals with 3.8mph and 4% incline are the reason! I will add more of these type of walking in my training. Thursday - rest day Walking - 3.8mph, 3.0%; Jogging - 5.8mph, 2% incline Light walking/jogging - 4.05 mi, 52min (about 50-50%% short intervals)

Somehow devil is stronger on Mondays... My son of a..Satan force me to snack on nuts and dry fruits all afternoon - I was sick even before runs. Decided to start and do as much as I could, but it got easier at the end Monday - "devil's day" All with 3.0% incline walk 0.6mi, 3.5mph run 1.0mi, 6.3mph walk 0.2mi, 3.5mph run 1.0mi, 6.1mph walk 0.2mi, 3.5mph run 1.0mi, 6.3mph walk 0.2mi, 3.5mph

Just try it! If it is too hard then you can make a decision.

Congrats! Friday All with 3.0% incline Walk - 0.8mi, 3.5mph Run - 0.5mi, 6.3mph Run - 0.5mi, 6.1mph Run - 0.5mi, 6.3mph Walk - 0.8mi, 3.5mph

Thursday - rest day All with 3.0% incline Walk - 0.8mi, 3.5mph Run - 1.4mi, 6.3mph Walk - 0.8mi, 3.5mph Breezee On the Google Play there are some comments that Strava gives to many errors. What was your experience? Do you think that mojo will come back if one or more kids will join you?

Because they are boring! That is why I am trying to increase my speed , so I can deal with them as fast as possible and move on.... Wednesday All with 3.0% incline Walk - 0.6mi, 3.5mph Run - 2mi (Four 0.5mi intervals with speed 6.3, 6.2, 6.1 and 6.0 mph) Walk - 0.6mi, 3.5mph

Of course the W5D3 was discussed here multiple times: http://forums.zenlabsfitness.com/topic/3848-week-5-day-3-how-did-you-get-through-it/ And your math is wrong: W5D2 is 3x5min=15min run. So it is just 25% Most of the time it is mental. Do couple times more W5D2, add bonus run at the end. When you will try again W5D3 take it a bit of slower... BTW The biggest gain 75% in total run time is W4D1 - 16 min vs 9 min in previous W3D3.

Tuesday - "rest" day Ex.Bike - 5.9mi, 20mi Walk - 0.2mi, 3.6mph, 3.5% Run - 1.2mi, 6.2mph, 3.5% Walk - 0.7mi, 3.5mph, 3.5% Upper body strength machines - 25min.
