Hi girls, I'm the one who basically had a meltdown yesterday after a horrible run.
Well I took your advice about following a C25K schedule. Today was day 1 and it went AWESOME. The weather was perfect, my cold is finally going away and more importantly, I didn't feel like $hit the entire time. It was *just* challenging enough to where I feel like I got a great workout but not so much that I wanted to die. In fact, my pace was 19 seconds better than yesterday's run, which isn't a lot but I'll take what I can get!
I'm excited about what I'll be able to do in 8 weeks.
Again, thanks so much for helping me up off the ground and giving me your advice and encouraging words.

Glad hear you feel good today!
I'm also doing c25k and think it's great!
I loved the C25K. I have done it a few times, when I've gotten out of shape. But last August was the first time I completed it and decided to push myself further to complete a 10K. Now I'm a week and a half away from a half-marathon and signing up for a marathon in October.
It is awesome the way you build up your runs and feel a sense of accomplishment each week.
Good luck!!
