Hey Jesse! I'm doing the Couch to 5K program, too! Mine is a little bit different from what you posted above, though. Anyway, I just finished week 4. It's my first time running as well, and it's a real struggle most days, but feels so good afterwards!

cool.I am sure when the jogging minutes pile on it will be a struggle for me too.today I did back, I walked to the gym so figured i did the walking part for the couch to 5k so I just jumped on the dreadmill and jogged for the two minutes, I went a little faster today than I did on Sunday.
Back
I am really happy about getting to 135 on the ass chin ups, getting closer to doing real ones..lower the weight is the closer i am getting to my bodyweight than it won't be assisted anymore

I have wailed on Bob a few times as well. He's a shady guy who deserves to be punished. Haha!
