    Thank you Liss416! I did D2 yesterday and was able to keep up with the runs much better. So far I have no pains in knees or any other joints so I'm feeling pretty good about running again this evening.
    I plan to do every other day next week since the runs get harder in W4.
    I hope your knee feels better!

    So I did W3 D3 today... and to be honest my knees hurt a little... 3 days in a row is too much... I'm excited about week 4...

    I'm starting W4 today and really nervous about the 5 minute runs. We'll see how it goes. Good luck everyone!

    I did it! I completed W4D1 and I didn't pass out! That is a huge accomplishment for me and I'm kinda proud of myself. Of course, I looked like I was gonna collapse by the end of the second 5 minute run and anyone who would have seen me would have thought I was having a heart attack! Lol!

    I finished week 4 day 3 this morning. Definitely was a lot easier than day 1.

    I plan to start week 5 on Monday.

    Great job finishing up week 4, Opal! I just did week 5 day 2... 8 min run, 3 walk, 8 run... it wasn't bad... I think day 3 is the 20 min jog... yikes!

    Have a great weekend!

    Just finished week 5 day 3... the dreaded 20 min run... It wasn't bad... I didn't hit the 10 min wall - nor did I get a surge of energy after running for 10 minutes.

    My legs are sore (in a good way)... Opalmel, how was your run today? I forget, do you treadmill or run outside?

    Must go!

    Have a great night everyone!

    Hi, I was not able to run today. I just started getting sick last night and this morning I woke up with the flu. I'm not sure when i'll be able to run again. :ohwell:

    Opal, I hope you feel better SOON!!! Take it easy and rest. Eat chicken soup (it's amazing how well that works) - and relax. Don't do anything until you feel 100%! Take care!

    I am doing much better, thanks! I will be starting week 5 today. Hoping I can still run 5 minutes after taking a week off.

    Glad you're feeling better, Opal! I just started a new job, so I'm having a tough time finding time to run (sigh). I just completed week 7 day 2... it was fun... hopefully I can do day 3 on Thursday...
