    I finished week 2 this morning! This is probably the longest I have stuck with a program so I'm proud of myself! Hope you all have a great day and I can't wait to hear from you all that complete week 2 today as well!

    Way to go, Melissa! I was just thinking last night that I tried this program several years ago, and I can't remember if I quit in the middle of week 2 or week 3 . . . I think it was 2!! I am so determined not to let that happen again, and you girls are keeping me going. Hope today goes well for everyone else as well!!

    Thanks, ladies! The only thing I've been consistent at is quitting, but I'm super determined this time! This group is helping me so much! Tracy, we're not letting you quit!

    I haven't run yet today, but I think posting will help make it happen for me today. I had a very long day in the car yesterday (and through a heavy snowstorm at the end). I really, really wanted to go skiing this morning, but work wouldn't let that happen :-(

    There shouldn't be an excuse for me this afternoon though. Thanks everyone for posting - I think it will really help me stick with this!

    Curve ball! had to leave town unexpectedly, staying in a hotel tonight (and its still snowing). But there is a treadmill here and I did W3D3 - running on a treadmill for the first time in years. My 10-yr old is with me (and was impatient to get into the pool/hot tub), so I skipped most of the warm-up and cool down. Glad to get in all of the running though. Yay!!

    Did W5 D1 today with a friend (friend who got me interested in running in the first place, she stopped d/t back issues but has been doing intervals on treadmill to try to get back into it). Told her what I'm doing and asked if she could do 3 and 5 min runs with me...she goes if I don't "run too fast" . LMAO at that one.

    We did it and actually talked as we "ran". Both of us couldn't wait for the voice to say "start walking" but all in all it was a really good workout (not fun by any means, lol, but not bad). Was the first time I ran/walked w/o music.

    Hoping weather on Sunday not too bad (we're due for rain/wind this weekend).

    Good going, Kim! Things rarely go as planned, but at least you still ran! Great job, airangel!
