    Done it!

    Not easy, I can tell you, but not as hard as I thought. I thought that I was going to have to stop running, but I managed to push through and did all of the running (and all of the walking)

    I can definitely feel it in my legs. Ooft!

    I started today! It was really tough. I did it on the treadmill at my gym because it was raining outside. Switching the speeds was a bit of a pain, so I hope to be able to run outdoors next time.

    Great job starting, guys! I am currently on week 4, and I am continually terrified of each day's run, and then continually astounded that I can (and do!) complete it. So keep at it! You'll be amazed at what you can do.

    I did W1D1 as well and it was easy on the tredmill. Monday I think I will do it outside. Can't decide if I want to do it at 5 am or wait till after work. It will be soo hott tho.. lol

    Or maybe I will just push myself to go faster on the tredmill.
