Fran1206 Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 I am Fran and I have never done anything like this. I do workout, but never practiced for a 5k or never tried to be a jogger or runner. I do have a treadmill and I have run in the past on it, but not for any events. I quit smoking over a year ago and I have a sedentary life, so this will help me get into shape. I am over 50 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bstay2 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'm 48 and haven't been running for 10-15 years. My initial goal was to make myself jog around the tracks 3 times a week. I now managed to do twice a week (Friday 8pm after work, and Sunday 7pm skip dinner). I found myself out of breath and cannot even run one round (400m), and had to walk-and-jog for 3 to 4 rounds around the stadium. That's when I discovered this app and it fits my current situation and goals. I just completed Week1 Day1 and almost gave up after the 4th set (4 of 8). I didn't have to worry about running one round ..... the app tells me to start walking after (only) 60secs jog. I finished the 20mins walk-n-jog covering 2.6km. Very slow considering I used to pass 2.4km tests in under 13mins. Looking forward to Day2 and Day3 to see if I can cover more distance with each workout. I'm not concerned about "repeating" a week. Doesn't matter because I just want to jog 3 times a week and the app helps me keep up the motivation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
