RayG Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I started C25K on June 8th and finished today... I'm 62 and on June 8th I tipped the scales at 280 and today I weigh 255. I still have a long way to go but feel better about myself. I have always hated running but C25K has made it more interesting and challenging. I have read many posts from fellow runners and have found many to be an inspiration which has given me confidence. I didn't create a burning path behind me when I ran which may account to why I didn't have any do-overs. That was a goal I set for myself even though I knew if I did have a do-over the world wasn't going to end. The plan is to start C25K over and kicking my speed up a notch. I have given some thought to just go into the 10K, but I really don't have the desire to run a 10K. Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

KellyAnn Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi there RAY!, First welcome here. 2nd, YOU DID IT, woohoooo! Congratulations on completing the app. That feels good huh? Just continue on witht he 10k app, you do not have to run a 10k, if you want to get stronger, faster, then go for it. I am doing the 10k app just to keep up with myself. I love it. OR, just redo the 5k app again, but I think you will like the 10k one. Start at about Week 3-5 to see where you are at. PROUD OF YOU!
