  1. if you need another person, let me know. Thanks
  2. 5.66 today, for a total of 99.5...Woot woot! I will hit it tomorrow even though it is a rest day! If I can not go without running! My hammys are a bit tight today...
  3. Just finished w5d2, I was a bit nervous for week five until yesterday I ran over 15 minutes without realizing it. I actually incorporated today into a 5k so after I was done I just kept jogging the rest... Bring it day 3!
  4. 6.10 today, 93.89 total! Yay!
  5. I'm in Tucson Tucson at a hotel for a family wedding, I ran w5d1 yesterday, but I had access to a treadmill. It is a real nice one and it had a 5k program, so I thought I would try it and see if this training is paying off. I finished it in just under 41 minutes, I actually ran for over fifteen minutes at 5.2. I run slower, then I can run longer. I was so excited, I probably could have ran longer but my shoe came untied, I had to stop to tie it then ran for a bit more. I'm so excited, it works, for those of you that are just starting keep it up for those of you that are veterans and kept encouraging me you were right, and Thank You!
  6. We have all been there, I remember thinking I would never advance, but I did. This program knows how to teach you, and all these people know how to help and coach you along the way. With good form and persistence you will do it. Redo days or weeks if you need to, we all have! Just so you stick with it. You can do it!
  7. I still don't run, I jog. I took found that I can sustain longer if I'm slower. I really focus on form not necessarily speed. I completed W5D1, and I ran three times for five minutes at a time.
  8. On vacation, will weigh in next week
  9. Ok 6.79 miles today, 87.79 total! On vacation, there is a treadmill at hotel, looking forward to using it tomorrow! Crazy!
  10. Didn't do c25k today but I did have a NSV(sorry if this is a duplicate story) ... While I was waiting on my mom to land, I parked and went into the airport and walked around baggage claim, I had around 45 minutes, did over three miles, and as I was walking, I had to control myself because my body wanted to run....WANTED TO RUN !? what? I had to give myself a mental pat on the back... It was awesome!
  11. Sorry was flying yesterday... Total with yesterday and today, 81 miles! Woot!woot! Also an NSV... While I was waiting on my mom to land, I parked and went into the airport and walked around baggage claim, I had around 45 minutes, did over three miles, and as I was walking, I had to control myself because my body wanted to run....WANTED TO RUN !? what? I had to give myself a mental pat on the back... It was awesome!
  12. Woot! Woot! Can't wait till I'm at goal, I've been stuck for awhile, my next goal is to be in onderland, ten pounds to go, then from there I will decide how far to go...
  13. Did W4D3 yesterday, looks like I'll be doing week five in Az, looking forward to challenging myself and not talking myself out of it because of this fat girl in my mind... She's not as strong as she used to be!
  14. 5.29 miles today total 71.08
  15. I'm 5'9" my surgeon had told me any number starting with a 1 he would be thrilled with, I started at 347, now I'm 210, I'm struggling to lose weight for awhile now, really slowed. I have upped my exercise added more weights, so I'm toning. I also upped my calories and hopefully I will start dropping soon
  16. Only 2.5 today, hung out watched football and the rain continue to flood out our streets...I think it's over! 68.25 total...
  17. Great job! Congratulations! You are so welcome, I have had so many people inspire me or tell me to get back out there. W4D2..here you come!
  18. Ok, had a rest day today, only got in 3.24, mowing the lawn between floods and shovelling hail away from my doors. My total so far 65.74, my poor muscle in my right thigh is killing me, I hope I haven't messed it up. Probably won't do much tomorrow just stretching. Great job everyone!
  19. I really need to get info on your support groups, I have had a tough time getting to mine in Parker and really miss them. It would be great to meet a few of you from Denver area. I'm in Aurora, surgery over 1 year ago.
