I Only Run If I'm On Fire...

Was what I used to tell people! But last night I took a boot camp style exercise class and ran with no problems for about 10 minutes as our warmup. I am so proud of myself! It was easy and I kept up with everyone else no prob. I never thought I would run.. Ever! NSV !!

Good for you! I tried to do the 30 day shed once or twice and the jumping jacks got me. I was so suprised . . . .I could do them 20 years ago lol. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations! I couldn't run if I was on fire. I'd have to "stop,drop&roll".lol

Maybe after knee replacement, I don't know.I'd settle for a brisk walk.

Keep up the good work, next thing you'll be telling us is your doing a half marathon.

Congrats on an awesome NSV!

Walk, don't run, it flares the flames! LOL. Congrats on your progress.

I hope after I get surgery I would be able to run. I always said it was over rated. But deep down I always wanted to just take off without feeling like in going to die

Before you know it your hooked! Doing things you never thought possible and loving every minute of it because of the great awards and good feelings it brings.

Self esteem...confidence....mental and physical health....and don't forget those endorphins !!!!

Pretty soon you cannot get enough of it and only feel bad - depressed when you DON'T get your workout in.....

B-52....I agree, I feel anxious and guilty when I miss a workout....
