Well the first question is how are you controlling your asthma?
It's definitely part of the reason why you can't run the distances that you want. Your muscles aren't getting the O2 that they need.
However, it's great that this program is helping you make progress. 🙂

It was much stronger when I was younger, but as I grew older it didn't hit me as much. I used to own an inhaler but now I only get it after extreme exercise during certain weather - and even then its controllable.
Thanks for the support though! Are you a runner by any chance?

Not necessarily. I used to play soccer for like 14 years. I dabbled a bit in track, but since I got my running in soccer, I stuck with it.

I've been doing it too. But I've not been that dedicated. I'm on week 5, day 1.
It's just been hot here.
You're still ahead of me at least! You're half way there, just keep at it. You're running for 5+ minutes, that's insane!

So, Tora, how are you doing? I skipped too many days so I'm still on week 5. I was feeling like I was gonna die, but I went with a friend today and I guess I was going too fast because I felt much better today.
Admittedly I am not doing it as often as I like either. I'm on a six week vacation, while I do have some time to run it's not very consistent.
I did just finish my week 3 today however, so that means week 4 is coming up! I'm nervous about the five minute run though - this place is so incredibly hilly and going uphill is MURDER on my legs.
Running with a friend must be fantastic, I bet you guys kept pushing one another. How are the 8 minute runs?? I'm dreading them already.
Wooo! I just finished week 4, day 1! Wow, I felt so good and I was so close to the 5k mark (4.8k overall). Gotta say I'm pretty proud of myself.
How did your run go, Capgirl? And here is hoping week 5 is just as easy for me as it was for you 😉 As for lungs, yea that's the part that gets me too - plus I run in an incredibly hilly area so I try to time my long runs when I am running downhill.
Can't wait til the end of week 5, that's when I get some proper running shoes! I'm going to a runner's store to get my gait analyzed.

Anyways, I found out about c25k not so long ago and I fell in love with it! However life keeps interrupting my progress and I never manage to finish the full 9 weeks. Still, with this program I managed to run for 5 minutes straight for the first time ever. I know, I know, for those of you who do 7 minute miles that may seem like nothing, but trust me - when you were so asthmatic that just making it to first base seemed like such an ordeal it's something.
So I am on Week 3, Day 2 of this program (after restarting a few times) and I was wondering if anyone else on here has tried this before, or at least would want to join me on my mission to run for 30 minutes straight. C'mon guys, I can't be the only one wanting to get fit and healthy!
