I finally made it to 30 min in the elliptical. Doesnt sound like a big victory, BUT the first time I got on it I barely made 2 min. Woo hoo! :happy:

    Way to go! I understand and you should be proud, the first time I got on our elliptical I only made it 3 minutes. Keep up the good work!

    So exciting! I find the elliptical to be the hardest thing to do for extended periods of time. I'm at 20 minutes now, but anxiously awaiting my 30 minute mark!

    I usually only do 20 minutes with a 2 minute cool down. My NSV is that I can now use the elliptical and not have my thighs rub against each other while I am using the machine!

    Great job! It's a good feeling isn't it? I finally got to 30 minutes today too! Had to turn it down a notch because my first week I didn't get past 11 minutes max..

    woo hoo! I started at 30 minutes and ended up at 50 minutes, improving my distance every time. after a few months I started to jog instead of the elliptical, now I'm looking to improve distance there :) Congrats!
