Is anybody here from the UK? If so, do you know about Park Run? Every Saturday morning, all over the country, there are free, timed, marshalled 5k runs which are open to anybody of whatever standard. I've done the Cardiff one 4 times, run/walking 2 min. intervals - which took me 41 minutes! - and was cheered on and…
Just replied in another thread about how important music is to me while I work out. Are there any songs out there that just get you guys pumped up and ready to go? I've never been a big Lady Gaga fan, but for me, "Edge of Glory" really just puts me in the mood to get up and go!
I finished C25K last Saturday. Today I started HIIT to build my speed and endurance. Thanks to all who have been posting. Your encouragement has kept me going when some times I didn't feel like it. For all of you who are still in progress keep going, it can be done.

Later it dawned on me that I had done 75 squats during the day at work. So I learned not to do weight lifting on my aerobic days and vice versa.
I just finished my Week 5. Before I started day 3, I had in my mind that before i was done I would have to lower my speed. But I just kept putting one foot ahead of the other, maintained my speed at 6.5 mph, and did it. What was amazing was that after the first 10 minutes I did not feel like I was fighting a battle and…

I've noticed there's some people jogging towards WK4 and agree it'd be good to have a "Weekly" thread so here it is! :wink:
the last 3 weeks are nearly the same - 3 /25 minute runs 3/28 minute runs, and 3/30 minute runs. Lets all hang here for the last three since we'll be in more or less the same place
