Congrats! I do a similar walk/run workout on the treadmill. I'm not to the point where I can just get up there and run for a full 20-30 min.

I'd suggest you definitely try to stretch before and after as you start jogging more. It can really help prevent injuries.

I started the couch to 5K last year but stopped when my knees started hurting. My family seems to have a history of knee/ankle issues. I'd still love to do the couch to 5K but I'm not sure how to work around keeping my knees pain free.

Also, make sure you do some of your traning outdoors. In my experience running outside is MUCH harder than on a treadmill. I think if someone only did their traning on a treadmill and then tried to do a 5K outdoors they might be suprised by the difference, at least in my personal experience.

A 5K is such a great goal, I really hope I'm able to get there some day.
