Day 2 of week 1 done. I'm surprised I made myself go. Figured I couldn't use any more self pity right now lol.

My ipod got taken from my car on the weekend  but I had it for 5 years so that's a good run...

I just put my cellphone on stopwatch, carried it with me and checked the time every 30 seconds lol.

So went for the first run of week 1 last night. Actually went really well. Didnt feel like I was going to die at all.
I think if I tried to do the same thing tonight I may die half way around though.

I drove the waterfront where I live last night to check the distance. From my house to the end of the waterfront and back is exactly 5km. So I will know I have made it when I can run from home and back.]]> Wed, 10 Nov 2010 12:19:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1196668&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1196668 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : good luck kiwikt, what a great...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1196120&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1196120 Author: RachFizz

Hi ladies...I have decided to join this forum because last time I tried this programme I only made it to week three. I figure I can use the rest of you for motivation.

7 weeks till christmas and I want to loose 5kgs...fingers crossed I come even close to this.

So starting tonight I am downloading the podcasts and hitting the waterfront.]]> Tue, 09 Nov 2010 13:40:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1195962&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1195962 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Had Day 1 of Week 1 today, went...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1195608&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1195608 Author: RachFizz

I so have to start this! I used to be able to run, but then I got lazy and stopped. I can normally walk for miles, although it was not so good for a while after the birth. My hip joints were pretty wrecked, so I didn't do much exercise. I'm super unfit now so I must do this. I'll have to run with the pram but it's a super heavy, chunky one, so we'll see how that goes!]]> Fri, 05 Nov 2010 07:35:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1192917&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1192917 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Well I just tried to go on an...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1192631&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1192631 Author: RachFizz

Well I just tried to go on an evening run for the first time in like a year. Planned to jog/walk for 20 mins but managed only 10. Have been strugglin with fibromyalgia for most of this year tho so I'm putting it down to that!

I think I have the same problem! Reason I was motivated enough to go out for a run is that I've started to try and treat systemic candida and - lo and behold - it's working!

My mum told me to look into it, I did, and became convinced it was the source of my fibro symptoms. Did those questionaires and the spit test thing. Anyway, my point is: how have you been treating your yeast issue? Are you just trying to cut things out of your diet or are you on probiotics, etc?

I've been researching and there are so many products out there, I'm not sure which angle of attack is best lol.

 

Sorry to blatantly hijack the thread!

Back to running: So yeah I was unimpressed with my efforts tonight and I think I will jump on board with the suggested program

I ran with the double buggy but not the dog as he would need to on a leesh and I am soo not that co-ordinated. it took me a couple of weeks to get use to running with the buggy.

I started the programme just after Christmas, (my Christmas pressie was a pair of running shoes from DH, I tried not to be offended ). I do not enjoy running but this was so great and I didn't miss a run for 6 weeks and I felt so fantastic after running. The weight dropped off of me. I got sick with Campylobactor 6 weeks in. Went for a run and just didn't have it in me that day, dragged myself home was ill, for two weeks, tried running the next week, still felt weak, so didn't get very far. The following week, I woke up with a sore hip that got so bad, I couldn't walk for a week (running and hip injury NOT related), has left me in physio ever since. So all my hard work, down the toilet. Funny, though, I've really been feeling a "pull" towards getting back into running. My hip is better and I've been given the go ahead. So maybe I'll start tomorrow. ]]> Tue, 15 Jun 2010 14:43:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1064223&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1064223 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Raspberryjam wrote:hmm so has...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=1062899&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#1062899 Author: Staffylicious

I did my first run tonight yayy. Next one on Saturday.

Running along the coast in Windy Welly was 'interesting'.

DH is going to do it as well so hopefully we can coordinate with the girls bedtimes and so on.

I have an iPhone so bought an app specifically for the C25k and I was able to play my own music as well.

You go girl!

I'm taking the rest of this week off, then I will ask the physio if I can start back next week.

I think im going to slightly modify it, so that I do two runs a week with at least two days in between, but do each week twice, so week one will be week one and two and I will do four runs, I figure I will just start week one again.

Hopefully that will help out my knees (once you have them reconstructed they are never quite the same, especially if your hauling around 15 more kilos than normal) ]]> Tue, 27 Oct 2009 06:03:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=817282&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#817282 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Lo and behold.

I could manage week two after just one week of week one. Actually, I've found the transitions between weeks pretty good. It's not a lot more running and I think you get a good bit fitter even in those first three runs.

I'm on week eight now - first run tomorrow, I shoudl actually listen to the first bit so I can psyc myself up for whatever it is I have to do. I have to admit that I found the 25min runs in week seven hard...

I started this today, but not the best start, woke up with a stinking headache and thought hmm the walk/run may shift it, after 3 lots of running it was awful, so I walked the rest and then took panadol as soon as I got home, headache still not shifted but nevermind.

Anyway I will continue, day off tomorrow and carry on tuesday, I may do 2 weeks of week 1, are you really ready for week 2 after just one week of week 1, or do you carry on until you feel you are ready?

Hi Flissty, you are doing well and will definately be able to do your 20-30 minutes in the near future.

I have pretty much finished the program as i find i can comfortably run 5ks now in about 30mins So i have changed my cardio program to include a 20min hill run, its about 3k's - hard work but i feel much fitter now after finishing the C25K program, especially as 5 weeks ago i find running 4mins hard work and that was on the flat.]]> Thu, 18 Jun 2009 20:15:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=705279&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#705279 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Hmph, had to do 2 min run/walk...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=705186&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#705186 Author: fire_engine

Hmph, had to do 2 min run/walk for the 2nd half od the run (meant to be 3 and 5) - was slight uphill with child in buggy and a head wind. Still, first half was good. Will head out in the weekend with DH to push the child. My goal is to do 20-30 minutes in 3 weeks, which should be doable. I just have to KEEP AT IT which is hard cos my motivation isn't that great!

How's everyone else???]]> Thu, 18 Jun 2009 17:20:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=705186&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#705186 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Well today sucked.

Well today sucked. I didn't feel good going into it so just did a short run - more like week 3. I decided it was better to go and do something than to not do anything. My hamstrings are really tight and I think that's one factor in why it's hard (that and a mental plateau) so I will do lots of stretching over the next wee while. Might head out tomorrow with DH for motivation.]]> Sat, 13 Jun 2009 16:48:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=703064&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#703064 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : yay Monikiah!

Hi Chonni, if you already have some level of fitness i wouldn't see any harm in starting at week 2.

Heres what week one and two entail:

Week 1: Warmup 5mins brisk walk, 8 x 60s jog + 90s recovery, 5mins cool down

Week 2: Warmup 5mins brisk walk, 6 x 90s jog + 2m walk, 5 mins cool down


I twisted my ankle at kickboxing last night and then pulled my shoulder during the grappling part, but i am determined to do my week 7 run 3 today.]]> Fri, 12 Jun 2009 10:39:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=702505&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#702505 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : hey everyone im joinging inn\...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=702452&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#702452 Author: chonni

Hi Kye and welcome.

I don't take Madison running with me - she never sits in a pram as she is now too independant. As she has been sick i have been either at home with her, or as i work and have to travel i have been away. Last week i was in Napier and didn't run because i didn't know where to go, but i did got the local gym and do an aerobics class.

One of my gym instructors has told me he is going to do me a new cardio program to up my fitness some more - i think he is living his martial arts dreams through me - so that should help with the running too. ]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 22:57:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=701844&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#701844 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh your so lucky...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=701751&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#701751 Author: tropics

i dont take him out. i admire ppl that can run with a pram but i trip over my feet and lean forward too much which is really bad for your body. we have a routine now where DH gets home at 530 and i go for a run then have a shower and cook tea at the same time DH feeds, baths and puts the baby to bed. its nice to have so much time to myself at the end of a day. i find the routine means i go even when i dont feel like it because i cant put it off to later in the day etc...]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:43:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=701743&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#701743 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Hi everyone Im joining in!

Kicker hope Maddison gets better soon

Well Ive been randomly running here and there and decided I needed some plan to stick to so I actually stick with it! so I did my week one day 1 today and found it really easy I felt like I could have run more than one min at a time but figured I should do the plan properly so YAY! going to commit to it 3 days a week always easier when you have something to commit too

who takes there babies out? how do you run wtih the pram? one hard or two? may sound silly but it feels so awarkward?]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:24:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=701732&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#701732 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Shins are OK.

Shins are OK. Did wk 4 day 2 and it was a killer. So much harder than w4d1, don't know why. But, I've got wicked pain in spots by my tummy button - I tore my rectus abdominus in labour and I'm wondering if the running is irritating it? Will ring my friendly physio sister tonight.

Me thinks w4 will take about 10 days to do.

Madison has been sick so i haven't done my runs :( I am hoping to get back into it this week, although i think i said that last week. I had the regional Tae Kwon Do championships last sunday and i think the running really helped with my fitness for my fight... so it is worth doing them.

Flissty how are your shin splints?? I have never had them but i heard that they hurt like anything.

i skipped my weekend run cos i didnt feel well but am going to go onto week 2 today anyway as i think i can force myself through it. it cold and raining but i have gloves now. yay. had a few cigarettes at a cocktail party on sat night so hoping that doesnt screw me too much

ETA: yay did week 2, was definitly harder but i did it all. i have had 4 days off or so since i missed my last run so think i would have done better without that break. next run thurs :)

I'll go with that theory! Yesterday DH told me my trousers were starting to look a bit baggy - when I bought them 3 weeks ago he told me they were a bit tight in the thighs. So maybe the running/walking is paying off!

I reckon there is a mental game that happens when you change your route - the first few times you do the new route it seems so much harder (even if it's the same distance/walk/run pattern). I've spotted a new one that's reasonably flat - up Ash St, round someof the back streets to Lynn Mall and home so I might try that later in the week. I'm planning to have a go at my shorter route this avo since DH will be home - means I don't have to go out pushing 20kg of baby and buggy.]]> Tue, 02 Jun 2009 09:55:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=698779&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#698779 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Flissty i run from avondale and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=698602&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#698602 Author: Kicker

I'm in New Lynn. Unfortunately there are a few wee hills that are only wee but feel huge . And they come near the start of the run so tend to knacker me out. I just need to harden up! I think this week is probably going to be my hell week that I just need to get through.

Not going out today - all blocked up and snotty and think it would not be wise. Will go tomorrow or Wednesday and week 3 will definitely be 2 weeks.

25 minutes straight is fantastic! YOu give me hope that I'll get there. I'm not sure I'll get to 5K - my "block" (the larger one) is about 4K so I think if I can do that, I'll be happy. ]]> Mon, 01 Jun 2009 13:33:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=698450&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#698450 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Hey Flittsy, where abouts are...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=698441&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#698441 Author: Kicker

Hey Flittsy, where abouts are you? Did you go out again and do the route.

Monikah when are you due to do your next run.

I am going to go out tonight and run the 25mins straight i think (week 7), i find this easier than the stop start anyway. I went onto mapmyrun.com and found out that the last run i did was 4.5kms so not to much further for that 5kms.

Go Kicker!

I was in hiding as I piked after a nasty gastro bug on week 3. I've restarted and am day 3 week 3 and it's killing me! I did a new route yesterday and really struggled so am thinking I might make week 3 a 4 day week. I'm not sure about going out in the nasty weather tomorrow with a cold, but also know that if I don't go, I'll find it easy to give up. And given that this is the third time this year I've done week 3, I would really like to just keep going! ]]> Sun, 31 May 2009 19:58:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=698216&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#698216 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Hi Monikah, i am still doing the...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=698150&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#698150 Author: Kicker

I have a confession to make - I should be properly into Week 4 by now, but I've been letting my busy-ness and the weather stop me from getting out there. I need to start making time - after all, it's only half an hour!

(But it IS so friggen cold out there!)

Is anybody approaching Week 4? Do I need to update my sig with the details or is week 3 enough for us to focus on for now?]]> Mon, 11 May 2009 16:47:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=683535&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#683535 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : Its official.. my nose overtook...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=680318&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#680318 Author: Kicker

I have had REALLY sore knees. I was at the end of week 2 but then tried my first run of week three and could barely run! I was really bad with the warm downs and warm ups so maybe it is my own fault. Have had a week off but am feeling better so going to do a couple of the week 2 runs again and then hopefully do week 3 next week if my knees are ok.   Very annoying as I was loving it. Will definitely do the warm ups this time.]]> Mon, 04 May 2009 18:23:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=677795&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#677795 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : My butt hurts!!!

Haha no it was fine, i ran a little slower than normal for the first longer run, but did my usual speed for the rest of them. I actually liked the 3min runs as i found i got into my stride.

Got my mum into it today too - so thats good.]]> Mon, 04 May 2009 18:18:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=677790&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#677790 <![CDATA[Couch to 5km running programme : I&#039;m in the middle of Week...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=677660&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#677660 Author: weegee

I'm in the middle of Week 3, but am a day behind, so I might have to be on Week 3 for more than a week. I want to be doing it reasonably comfortably before attempting Week 4 and as I mentioned above I did find Week 3 a little bit of a jump.

How'd you go today Kicker?]]> Mon, 04 May 2009 16:25:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25925&PID=677660&title=couch-to-5km-running-programme#677660
