    a) W7D1 completed...Not! I ran a whopping 15 min :ohwell: I couldn't do it due to severe hip cramps. I was in the zone, ready to see it through, but my hip had other plans. I tried to run through the pain, but that didn't seem too smart.
    b) I'm icing my hip now and did some stretches
    c) I'll try again tomorrow, if my hip allows

    W7d1: completed at speed 5
    I think running for 15 minutes yesterday helped a lot.
    My shoulders did better, i took advil all day and 20 mins. Before running my husband rubbed biofreeze on my shoulders.
    I have a strong feeling that a lot of my problem was the fact that my two boys were playing with the treadmill two wkends ago with their matchbox cars and raised the incline to 2.5. I never figured this out till tonight!:laugh:

    Good luck and smiles to all:wink:

    a) W7D1 completed, it took every ounce of my being to get through it!!
    b) It was like I was starting from scratch, like I've never jogged in my life. I was so relieved to look down to see 1 min remaining!!
    c) I just want to get through the week. I plan on skipping tomorrow though, I need a rest.

    I treated myself to the steam room and jacuzzi afterward, which was the best part of the workout.

    WTG ladies for getting it done!!

    We should! I did it for 28 days and then gave up. It would be nice to try it again. :)

    I'm hoping I can fit in a run tomorrow! Finger's crossed.
