CleBkPkr reacted to Cutieboots in Hello!!! New to Running
Just started running with this app and I must say I feel pretty good. Now, to keep motivated! I have asthma and was told running would help condition my lungs so I wouldn’t rely on the inhaler as much. I hope they are right!

I love Linkin Park and rock music, but when I’m working out, I go with mostly pop music such as Ariana Grande or Salena Gomez.
Here’s my playlist on Spotify that I use. Feel free to check it out.

Just bought a new one so I have no excuse not to do this!

You are absolutely not silly! You can do this.

CleBkPkr got a reaction from sarehkkk in Is it possible to dial down the intensity of C25K?
I repeated week 1 as well. I wanted to be certain I was settled in with that before moving on. One thing all of my "runner" friends have said about when they first start was it takes time... they all said repeating weeks was not a problem at all. As long as you are working it will come.
I would like some advice for a new runner. My calf muscles get pretty tight. Any suggestions for a good warm up/stretching routine?

CleBkPkr got a reaction from AngelaCobb in Training for 5K this summer.
"Running a 5K" is on my goal list for 2019 as well! I walked a 5K last year on Thanksgiving Day and it was a lot of fun. My average mile was 19:01 so that is my benchmark. I signed up for one on St. Patrick's Day to see how I am progressing. I'm on week 2 of C25K. I repeated week 1 on purpose. So far so good. The weather here is not conducive to running so until it warms up and thaws out I'm using a treadmill.

I’ll also be on a treadmill for now. Michigan weather isn’t fit for running here. Too much snow and ice. I’ll be hitting the gym here in a few hours. Treadmill and 30 minute circuit are what I have planned for today.

Anyone have a playlist they wanna share? I listen to albums and such but need some fresh ideas for mixes. One of my favorite training albums is Linkin Park's Meteora...

CleBkPkr got a reaction from TryingAgain in Treadmill for now
Hello! Just getting going with the app. Right now the weather here isn't fit for running so I am on the treadmill. I purposely restarted week one. Trying to make sure I am adapted before I move to the next week. This is all very new to me but I am determined to succeed!

CleBkPkr reacted to Trailblazer in Hiker that’s new to running!
Hi there! I am an avid hiker/backpacker who is looking for an outdoor workout I can do year-round to strengthen my knees and ankles and keep me conditioned for summertime hiking goals. I have never run before but am looking forward to the challenge of it. I do worry about building endurance but I know that comes with time. Would love any tips or encouragement others have! I am from Upstate NY so I’ve chosen to begin my running journey in the snowy winter. We’ll see how it goes.
