JLoree Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 C25K helped me start my running journey! Since becoming a graduate of the C25K app, I have since completed the 10K app and will be starting the half marathon app as well. I have completed 4, 5K's and logged MANY miles on my own since the beginning. I have lost 45 lbs. and have never felt better! I'll be turning 50 next year & will also be doing my first half marathon, cannot wait for this! Thank you so much Zen Labs for creating these programs for someone like me who was new to the running world ~ I am forever grateful!!!

Guest Sharon Bell Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 That is wonderful. I have not lost in pounds but definitely lost in inches. I am also grateful for this program. I never thought I would be a runner and would not dreamed I would love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fite getting fit Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 I started over 4 weeks ago at the age of 57. I did week 3 for two weeks and did w4 d1 this morning. I was able to complete the 3 and 5 minutes intervals. YEAH. I am anxious to keep going.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof5 Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 I recently started this also. I love it, however, I have injured my knee at home not while running and I am down pending MRI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jojo Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 I had foot issues for years that caused me pain to walk across a room. After having surgery on both feet and still having pain I was ready to give up. So, 15+ years of no activity and gaining lots of weight I decided I had to something now because I wanted to be around for my kids. I started watching what I ate, cutting out majority of carbs. I started loosing weight and thought I would try walking. Then a friend was doing the c25k app and I was curious. I was hooked! I was so proud of myself because I was loosing weight and was running which I never thought I could. My feet finally feel better from the surgery and weight loss. I can now run a 5k. I'm very thankful to my friends and family for the encouragement - I couldn't have come this far without them. I still have more weight to loose but I'm motivated!
