Just wondering which podcast you are using? I've always wanted to try a 5k and always wanted to try the Mississauga one since I always see the sign when I drive down that way. But I have no clue where to start.

Here's the link to the podcasts I'm using (free and easy to upload to Itunes or any other MP3 player):

http://runningintoshape.com/5k-training-downloads/week-1-c25 k/

I've heard that there are also apps out there that will use your own music to create a C25K program, but so far I'm liking this one, so I think I'll stick with it.

Good luck!  If you do sign up for the Mississauga 5K, it would be great to meet up and do it together!
