Thanks for all the posts...everyone has such awesome achievements. I look forward to reaching some of your points myself!! I had one more achievement yesterday...I did 20 minutes on the stair machine...after doing my 5k training. I hate that machine with a passion and the first few times I was lucky to get to 8 minutes. I will eventually get to 30 and then ramp the speed up but I'm glad to have done 20!0

THESE KILL ME! Congrats on your progress! I will keep trying0 -
There is this horribly annoying hill on my route when I jog. Yesterday, it was much easier and my legs felt so much stronger. It was awesome. I could just keep going now. Also, when I started jogging....I was at about a 14 minute mile. Now it's about an 11 minute mile. Took a while to get there but the trick is to keep at it : )0

I can run a longer distance at higher speed on the treadmil (about 1.5 miles at 4.2 speed), I can do more sledge hammer slams to a tractor tire, and I can do pushups easier. my next challenge is to work more w/ the battle ropes, flipping the tractor tire, muay thai bag, and bosu ball. sorry if my spelling is off. :blushing:0

I have a much easier time at my job lifting the 45-pound boxes of nails and screws and walking up and down ladders with them. I get less easily winded, and catch my breath faster. It's still nooby, but I can now run for up to 5 minutes at a stretch, instead of not at all, lol.
I also walked 3.5 miles in an hour the other day.0 -
