Sorry to the ongoing couch to 5k thread but I am looking for others just starting out (and it looks like there might be quite a few of us on popsycal's thread).

So...anyone starting week 1 this week?

I had psyched myself up to starting today but it has snowed all day. I did the first training unit on the crosstrainer, better than nothing I guess.

I downloaded a great app for my iPhone which allows me to do my own training programme, complete with beeps when to walk or run whole listenig to my own music. And it records distance and route. Pretty cool.

Yes! Thanks for starting this; I'd thought of doing it but hadn't got round to it.

I started yesterday and felt I managed the run 1 minute, walk for 2 minutes fairly easy at first but by the end I was so, so cold! I need to buy a hat and gloves tomorrow before I venture out again.

I felt really energised afterwards, and feel great today. I can't wait to go back out tomorrow.

I am so not a runner though! If I can do it, anyone can.
