Re: Only One Week Left!!

Way to go! Let me know what app you choose next, I'm very curious about what's out there. I tried RunHelper Bridge to 10K, but it was too much too soon for me, so I then went to RUnHelper Ease into 10K and just finished the 3rd week of it. The program is not as difficult as Bridge, but is more diffi...

Re: Only One Week Left!!

Lanclass, that sounds similar to my goals as well. I don't have a half marathon that I'm targeting, but it is on my bucket list and I'm not getting any younger! The 10k app I have is the Runhelper Connect Bridge to 10k. It doesn't compare to Get Running & Claire But I guess it will do. :roll: No...

Re: Only One Week Left!!

Thanks, Colin and Lanclass! And congrats to you both for finishing! Two week 9 runs are in the books... Only one run to go! I'm signed up for a charity 5k this Saturday which works out perfectly, as long as I can get the last run in this Wednesday. I'm curious to know what everyone's plans are post-...

Only One Week Left!!

I just finished week 8! Only one week left... can I actually do this???? After multiple attempts, I've never officially completed the program. And this time it took me 6 months :oops: But just three runs left! Anyone else close to or on their last week, too? I've also just discovered a love of trail...

Re: Transition from treadmill to road

Hi Lynmull! How did your transition go? I tried the program years ago mostly on the treadmill, and when I finally ran outside, it was much more difficult (though a LOT less boring!). When I saw that you wanted to try W5R3 outside, I really hoped you'd be successful. That seems like a tough run for t...

Re: Week 1 day 1...couldn't finish

Oh no! So sorry to hear about the kidney stones. I just finished w7r2 and if it makes you feel any better, I looked back on the app tonight to see when I started. I was afraid to look because I knew it was a lot longer than 7 weeks! And It was actually March 20. :oops: I stopped and started a lot, b...

Re: I havent run for 1 week :(

Way to go, Tiny Dancer! After just a week, I will usually try the next run, too. If it's been longer, and is a run I am dreading, I may go back. Just took me four tries on week 6 run 3! And haven't run since Tuesday because of all the back to school appointments, orientations, shopping, etc. But mos...

Re: Week 9

Congratulations, Lankeymarlon! I'm in the same boat, have given up many times before. This time, I have just finished week 6 and still going. As far as improving stamina and distance, I am no expert. But I do know there are programs that serve as a bridge to a 10K once you're running a 5K. Best of l...

Re: Week 6 Run 3 Hates Me

I did it!!! Tonight, actually, instead of last night. Last night I was literally getting out of the car at the park when one of the kids became ill and I had to return home. So tonight, I got out there and slowed when I thought it was impossible to continue. And at times, I was sllloooooowwwww. Than...
