    Right then, no time like the present, so I'm off a run. I'll do my best to get 20 runs in but I reckon it will be nearer 12 as I'm doing 6 cardio workouts per week at the moment :)

    I'm in. I got 20 days in for February. Although, March will be a challenge since I will be on vacation all next week and probably won't run but a couple days.....

    Hi everyone! I am jogging for 1 minute then walking at a 4.1 pace for 2 min. Today I did 45 min and burned about 400 calories. This is my fourth day on MFP and I love it. I hope to keep it up, a little nervous about sticking to it. I figured if i can make it past two weeks then I am good! :smile: Good luck everyone!

    Good morning I ran 21 minutes at 5.2 this morning = walked 3 min at 3.0 mph ran 15 min at 5.2 mph walked 10 min at 3.0-3.5 mph ran 6 min at 5.2 mph and walked for another 7 min to cool down. I am so bummed that a muscle in my right thigh keeps acting up (hurting)when I run. Burned 252 calories.

    That's 2 only 18 more.

    So far, I have run Thursday, Friday and Saturday - now contemplating whether or not to go out a run today? I have to say Insanity with Shaun T is kicking my *kitten*, but I love running all the same, so trying to keep up both.

    I'll let you know how I get along (if I go) hahaha

    Yesterday(sat) I ran at 5.2 for 60 minutes and went 5 miles and a bit. Today was my rest day in which I was going to go to hot yoga but instead I just slept in lol. Tomorrow I'm going to attempt to pick up my pace a bit perhaps 5.8? Or 6? I'm very excited about it. NOT excited about the humongous blisters on my feet, defiantly need to save up for some good shoes!

    Ok, so that's 5 runs down as I went to the gym last night and did my sprints inside an hours jogging, which consisted of a 5 minute warm up at 10km/h then 6x400m sprints at 16km/h with 200m recoveries at between 10-12km/h.

    So, 15 runs left to go but I am having a rest day today so will need to try and pick up again later in the week.

    Good luck everyone with this challenge :)
