  1. Ok I just did week 2 day 1 and I am so excited about this! I never imagined I would like to run, but i think it will be my new favorite past time very soon. What are the others of you setting as your speed? I am walking at 3.5 and jogging at 5.0 should i be going faster or slower? I am worried i may do this wrong and end upo hurting something and not finishing. Thanks for the help!
  2. Georgia I am so excited about November. I am sure we will do great if we have to walk it will be ok, I am sure we will not be the only ones. I just realized that the 5K will be two days after my one year bandiversary! I could not have even dreamed of doing a 5k last year, my band is awesome!!!

  20. Nip I am so impressed with your weight loss, I on the other hand have slowed to nothing and can't seem to figure out why. I eat 1400 calories or less per day I walk atleast 4 days a week and I am pretty active with my family on the weekend. If you have any suggestions on how you kept yours up I would love to hear them. take care Jeannie
  21. Leslie I'll be there today, i might be a few minutes late.

  24. We are planning to be at Darton tomorrow (Tuesday) at 5:15. We would love to have more people, please don't worry about being able to keep up. It's not a race we are just trying to get a little exercise in. Really, any of y'all that want to come out come on. We are meeting up in the rear parking lot closest to the wooded area. Take care.
