Mistiism Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Don't get me started on the scariness of week 5 haha But lets just tackle Week 4! After spending way too long obese and unhealthy, 7 months ago I decided to get my butt into gear... Since then I've lost 30kgs (66lbs) and walked at least 10K a day to get healthier. For the first time I've felt I can finally start the C25K program, and have made it to week 4 (just ran Week 3 Day 3 yesterday)... and while I was super worried I wouldn't survive 3 minute runs, I did... but now... 3 minute runs and 5 minute runs? Eeeeeep? How did everyone else find week 4? Mistiism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tugarunner Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Hi I was really worried about week 4 as well. I did just what TrishE suggested and slowed my pace right down when I began to struggle. I also kept telling myself that I could do it and wouldn't give up. Two things made a massive difference for me. One was getting proper running shoes and the other was working on my breathing. I did week 5 day 1 and made it through all the 5 minutes runs and was so proud of myself. Dreading day 3 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistiism Posted May 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Well I did it!!! I had to Jog slower than normal, but I survived!!! I felt pretty dead after, but I survived!!! I'm gonna hurt tomorrow, but I survived hehe I have a feeling I might need to repeat a few days in week 5, but right now I know I can make it through week 4!
