W1D2 - I did it at the middle school track today and did 12 laps in 35 minutes. I speed walked the jogging parts - it is just too hard for me to run still, but I did it all!0

So, it looks like most of the votes are leaning to keeping the thread going. So that's what we'll do. Isn't 500 posts the limit?
When we reach the limit, maybe you can start another topic with the same name. Or even make another topic now and post a link to this thread before we reach the limit. We can all go back to this post and look for the link. Just an idea.0 -
W1D2 completed! Wow do I need to work on my calves!
Found out the Speed Interval button on my gym's treadmill works great for this.
How is everyone else doing?0 -
So, I did W1D2 last night, and I am feeling it. I really think I'm gonna have to repeat week 1. This running thing is COMPLETELY new to me. Haven't done it since high school, at least.0

Did W1D2 today. It was about 2 miles this time with a 2% incline, running at 6mph, and walking at 3.5mph. Whew! I never liked running before, but I am really enjoying this program! You guys are all doing great!0

W2 D2 complete.Treadmill version, walking 3.5mph and running 5.0-5.5mph. It was 97 degrees today when I did this, my treadmill is in the attic, only a ceiling fan. Let's just say it was a little warm.LOL! Keep going everyone!0

I completed a W3 run today. (I started the Get Running app in April and completed up to W4D2 but took a break because my knees were very sore) The runs for week 3 are 1 1/2 min/3min/1 1/2 min/3min. That last 3min gets a little tough! This was the first time I ran on an inside track and I like it! My knees/ankles/feet didn't seem to hurt as much as outside and certainly less than the treadmill.
Glad to see so much "chat" on here. I don't know about anyone else, but it certainly makes me want to be successful when I see how well everyone else is doing! Keep up the good work, everyone!0 -

Thanks! I definitely feel like repeating is the better option. If I move on before I'm ready, I'll only discourage myself.0 -
I did W1D2 yesterday and it was worse than D1. I wanted to give up so bad, but I made myself finish. I hope this gets better and not worse.0
