    Thank you! :smile:

    For the running, I started with Couch to 5k at the end of December, and I'm currently doing a 10k training plan from Active.com. I think there's only a week or so left of that.

    I got the EA Sports Active game at the end of January, and usually do it 4 x a week, sometimes a little more. I started with the 9 Week Challenge on Medium, then did the 3 Week Cardio Kickstart on Hard, then started the 9 Week Challenge on Hard. Just finished week 6 (workout 24) yesterday. Sometimes I do extra custom workouts. I swapped out the resistance band for 5# weights, but I think it's getting near time to bump it up to 8 or 10 pounders.

    You are inspirational! And I hope to be looking that good in my bikinis as we move further into the summer!

    I started Couch to 5k-- and I think I can be very successful with it--so many people have been.

    Can I add you?

    I love the after-run picture. It tells so much to the people new to here and maybe new to exercize/fitness/running. To me, it says:

    "This smile, this sweat, and this me does not come quick, easy, or free."

    But....it is SO worth it.

    You look like a woman who feels awesome. I am fond of saying that all women are beautiful when they smile...and that's a helluva smile.

    I don't know. I never played Wii. I don't think you need Kinect for it, though. I have the Playstation Move, but it's not required for this game. It's available for the Wii, too.

    The one thing I *really* like about it, though, is that you can import your own music, so you're not exercising to the canned elevator crap that comes with the game.

    Sadly, they had an "update" that made it so your custom music isn't played during step aerobics or boxing. :grumble:
