Here’s what the current Up &amp Runners are saying about Up &amp Running:

Philippa, UK:

The one thing that keeps generating me teary with regards to this running is how considerably I am capable of. I have never pushed so challenging for one thing that is just for me. I suppose I’ve thought it seemed selfish to spend this much time just on myself, but I require this. I will need to bear in mind that I am worth the effort and to stop being scared of failing. I can do far much more than I thought I could. So I CAN skip in the park and I CAN go for 2k. And I can do it just for me. And I can go and cry a couple of tears for the virtually 30 years I’ve wasted thinking I cannot.

Amy, USA:

I, too, am a Couch to 5K refugee. I just couldn’t make it work for me and it left me more discouraged. I’m positive it was due to the lack of community. Everyone here makes me really feel like portion of a team and keeps me accountable since I have to keep track of every thing and report back. The C25K program actually doesn’t provide that accountability that we get here. And the friendship. It’s actually beginning to feel like we are becoming long-distance friends, and who doesn’t want to run with friends?

Jo, Australia:

I do not feel I could say (but) that I really like the act of running. What I am really, truly loving though is the sense of my body being alive. I love all my aches and pains! I love finding out how I can make it move.

Nicole, USA:

Halfway to 5k! I’m so proud of myself for creating it to mid-program with out missing a workout! I’ve ordered my “Outrunning the Zombies” t-shirt as a reward. For the 1st time in my life, I’m able to run a mile without stopping. This is something I never thought I would be able to do, and it gives me the most extraordinary sense of accomplishment.

Jill, USA:

Over the past few years, running, as soon as a source of joy in my life, has morphed into a symbol of failure for me, both consciously and subconsciously.  But as I’ve begun to see major progress with the Up &amp Running on the internet program, I’m beginning to view myself as somebody who sets realistic objectives and then achieves them by way of repeated and consistent effort.
