After day 1 on Monday I woke up with VERY sore quadriceps on Tues. Yikes!! I assumed they'd be back to normal this morning but not really. I did stretch and got through day 2 though without any pain while running. My poor old muscles are just going to be taking a beating these first few weeks I"m afraid. I have to say I LOVE Ullrey's podcast. The music is not anything I would normally listen to but it does work to keep you going. That's my post for W1D2! wooohooo Chris    Report

That's my post for W1D2! wooohooo Chris Congrats on beginning the road from couch potato to 5K :) I'm surely not laughing. The above could have been my exact story in week 1. I was rather sore the first couple of days, however my body quickly seemed to adjust to it. I also took the stretching afterwards a bit more seriously after the first day :) As for ullrey's podcasts, it's not something I would have listened too normally either, but they have really helped me a lot. Don't think I would have gotten to week 4 without his encouraging words. You can do it! :) // brian C25K finished Oct. 02 - 2008.    Report
