It works for me. I have done it 4 times in the last 10 years and my wife joined me this year. We are on run 2 week 9 tomorrow. I just turned 50 and although I have a few aches and pains after 5 minutes of running I feel so much better. We will be running in Florida next week. Early mornings before the sun comes up, really looking forward to running around HRH.

Good advice.
Also we find on days when our legs are sore that if we start really slowly and gradually build up pace the legs relax within 5 minutes.

I found that doing the 5 minute brisk walk before and after the run helped and even now I still do it before all my runs plus I also do some stretches afterwards as well.

I'm back on C25K.
I cam run 5k but was finding it hard to maintain the speed, so I'm using C25K as a kind of interval training Nearly always wear a head band And I brisk walk 5 minutes before and after. But I'm not good at remembering to stretch! |

For those that have recently done it, how did you find the transition between weeks 3 & 4? I’ve found the running for 3 mins tough this week (pathetic, I know) but just looking at week 4 and I’ve realised it’s now 5 min runs 😱

They are big steps between weeks 4,5 and 6. There’s going to be good days and not so good days so don’t panic. Every run, no matter how slow or many stops, helps build muscle and stamina and improves your heart and lung efficiency.
We left it 2 or 3 or 4 days sometimes between runs and that gives your legs more time to recover. Also at the end of a long run a, if you are feeling tired, fast paced walking/running will keep your heart rate at the same level as a slow run so I assume it is every bit as good as running. Another option is to interval e.g. walk then run. Telegraph posts or lamp posts are great for this, e.g. run to this lamp post walk to the next. I did this last Sunday at the Plymouth hoe run for life. The last km was uphill past the royal marine barracks, there was no way I could have made it up running but lamppost interval walk/run did the trick. As long as you are injury free then keep on going, no matter how slowly

So I’m doing the couch to 10k at the moment to train for the run Reigate 10k, seems to be going okay, on week 3 run 2, feeling good so far, though made a bad route choice yesterday and had to try run 2.5 mins uphill - had to walk at about 1.5 mins, but the last 1.5 mins run I extended to 2.5min to make up for it instead, but it’s all about trusting in the plan I guess!

Week 9 run 1 today. Sundays are the runs I do in the morning and the rest after work at about 7 and after being on my feet all day really start to dread doing them. This morning I felt so positive that the run felt really easy- it was more mental positivity than anything. To keep the running up I've signed up for the Newcastle 5k race for life on July 14th.
