Sailing through this way easier than expected thanks to the app. I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to fully run a 5k by the end, but I'll definitely be running huge chunks of it more than expected. I'll definitely be fitter, at any rate, and my endurance has gone way up.

Doing the Zombies, Run! 5k training app and enjoying it a lot so far. I'm a little worried about when it starts to go from walk-run drills to serious running, but so far it's easing me into it very gently. Plus zombies.

25/02/2014 - Second day of Day 1 5 minutes warm up at 5.5km then 20 minutes alternating 60 second jogging at 9km & 90 seconds walking at 5.5, followed by 5 minute cool down at decreasing speeds.

I'll be doing a day a week, as in the first day all week the first week, the second day all week the second week, etc.

24/02/2014 - Day 1: 5 minute warm up 60 seconds jogging/90 seconds walking for 20 minutes. Unfortunately the programming I spent 20 minutes on to make the treadmill change speeds automatically appears to be a failure, so I had to do everything manually.

Week 1, Day 2 - Done. Slightly better but could be a number of things. Also not going to do the squats today since it made my legs hurt too much yesterday to do the run!

Week 1, Day 1 - Done. Can't say it was easy, but I did manage it. So unfit! The app is really good.

After researching the plan, and working out a schedule, ended up just downloading a free C25k app for my phone :)

Talks to me and everything; the helper robot revolution has begun! -8- (me with open arms).
