Any Couch25K new starters?

Hi thinking about starting this, see how far I can get. Had masive asthma attack from running 5k (wekk running 3 of it walking rest) last weekend so going to start slowly and see how I go.

I do. Any links?

I would really like to join.
how do I find the pod casts?

I am unfit and overweight, need to loose 2 stone would love to loose 3
but mostly and honestly I would like to be fitter.

I will get chance to go out tomorrow (do i need to do it every day?)

Do you have an iPod Fearne? There are some good apps.

I'm in! I'm also doing the 30 day shred, but I am not shifting any weight what-so-ever. I've quickly googled this plan and got some bits, but can anyone give me a decent overview / link?

I would like to lose 2 stone, but it will never happen unless I get some proper exercise

I've just finished week 3, and loving it so far. (Which is very out of character!! )

Only discovered the podcasts last week though. Before that, like a muppet, I had to use the stopwatch on my phone and keep track of the times in my head.

The podcasts are fab!

I'm the same. I'm size 14, 6 ft tall, age 39. I've never been fit in my entire life. I was always last in cross country.

I'm not overweight but I'm not very healthy in my lifestyle and routines. I am always shattered once I've got in from work in the evening and done the kids' bedtimes etc. I'm 41, 5'6 size 10- 12 and weigh about 9 1/2 stone. I need to drink a bit less than I do, lose around half a stone, go to bed earlier and do some exercise.

OK MarionCole. I'll be sensible and start on week 2. I'll be able to do a run in the mid-morning so will report back.

I might go out tomorrow morning then. Will start with week 1 I think.

Count me in. About a month ago I completed the first two weeks but then had some really crap crap crap news totally out of the blue - the sort of stuff that you never think is ever going to happen and just couldn't get myself out at all (nothing to do with health - I'm fine to run :)) However I'm more on top of things and I think I'm ready to give it another go. I should probably do week 2 again but I don't think starting on week 3 would be too bad.

Duende - my DS2 is 26 months, my work is fairly sedentary and I really need to start exercising again. I really need some me time as well.

So are we planning a run tomorrow?

I need to do it. I keep starting and never keeping up with it. The best I've done is get to week 6. I feel a bit out of my depth on the big thread.

Hello all :)
Lemonade, I find that if I don't go out first thing in the morning, I then spend all day coming up with reasons not to go. Plus, I'm often simply too tired in the evening. So, like CharlieStinkySocks, I get up at the crack of dawn and I'm out at 6.30. I can't imagine doing the same in winter...

I just finished week 2 tonight. I have lost over 4 stone but still have a couple to go. I have never run before so was surprised that I managed it the first two weeks. I am really enjoying it, but alsomvery worried about running 3 minutes next week.

I'm happy to jump in here if I may? I'm on week 4, should have been week 5 but illness meant I decided to repeat a week just to give myself some time after I took a week off. I'm about a stone overweight and do my running evry other day at 6am as it's the only time I can fit it in.

Hi, I have just finished week 2, so very early days. I have never run before and always hated the idea...A few weeks ago though I started to feel a very strange urge to run. to do something! My DS is 22 months now, when I was on mat leave we would walk for miles everyday so I felt I was getting enough exercise. Since I went back to work in August I have been spending all my time between working and being a mum and I now really fancy doing something for myself.

I am not overweight, but I am not very fit either. Let's put it this way - doing 6 runs of 90 seconds each is not a walk in the park for me :)

so when are you thinking of starting LemonadeDrinker?
