    Only ran today, 2 miles I believe. And Did 30 min on my spin bike. I'm not sure how that converts to miles.
    About to do 50 crunches. :p

    if i did my calculations right, this is a simple break down....it helps wrap my mind around it!!


    5 Days/Week
    2 miles
    15 crunches
    15 Dumbbell curls(or pushups)
    15 Lunges
    15 squats

    4 Days/Week
    2.5 miles
    19Crunches /day
    19Dumbbell curls (or pushups)
    19Lunges
    19Squats


    (((((The only reason i changed to dumbbell curls is bc I have had Open Heart Surgery(OHS) and its uncomfortable to do pushups. )))))

    I am in, too! :D

    I like the breakdown as well. Makes it seem a lot more realistic/achievable.

    I am just seeing this thread so I have some catching up to do w/ the exception of the walking. I do get on the treadmill every morning before work and usually manage to get in about 2.25 miles (fast paced walk).

    I will work on catching up on the rest this weekend. Wish me luck! LOL

    Yes you can walk, you can do anything that you need to do to get the miles in. I do the women push ups, I have to build up to the normal ones

    If you have a phone with android apps you can download iMapMyRun and it will tell you how far you've run, how fast you go, and even tracks your route. That's what I use. The only other thing I know of are the treadmills and stuff will let you know how far you've gone.
