  • Some ideas: If a cold day a warm roasted sweet potato (plus it takes an hour to cook in the oven so that delays the snacking taking up time as well) Some puffed wheat cereal (that does not have too much sugar - you can eat quite a few cheerios for 100 calories) Raspberries (though expensive where I live right now) Nerds…
  • Here I come January! Second month partaking of this challenge. Total Goal: 25 miles/40 kilometers Long term goal: Signed up for my first 5K on May 27, 2018! First week of January: Looking forward to my week of vacation in warmer weather so I see if the "treadmill at 1% incline" = "real life outdoor running".
  • Did not make December goal but still so happy as I have never run before and today ran for 20 minutes straight! Very cool :) A much harder challenge was keeping up with this chat which I also definitely failed at! Sorry! December running challenge: Dec 3: 3 miles (running 1 minutes, walking 2 min) Dec 6: 1.5 miles (running…
  • Hope everyone with injuries on this thread improves quickly. It is good to hear because it inspires me to not be lazy to take the time to warm up/cool down/stretch and be careful as a new runner.. December running challenge: Dec 3: 3 miles (running 1 minutes, walking 2 min) Dec 6: 1.5 miles (running 3 minutes, walking 1…
  • It is really cold here in Toronto. Not sure I can run fast enough yet to keep warm so sticking to the treadmill for now. Looking forward to a trip to Miami in January - My sister thinks I am crazy to want to run on vacation but its going to be warm! December running challenge: Dec 3: 3 miles (running 1 minutes, walking 2…
  • Thanks for posting! As a new runner good to know what aches to keep a closer eye on.
  • Dec 3: 3 miles Dec 6: 1.5 miles Dec 8: 1.5 miles Dec 10: 1.5 miles This thread is really motivating me though only half keeping up with all the posts unfortunately. I have never run before so pretty cool to see my legs can actually hold me up for more each time. I found a nearby indoor track here too as it getting under…
  • Signed up for a 5K in May, giving myself LOTS of time to get ready! Thanks for this info!
  • For lunch this week I made taco salads and squash soup. I have almost always conquered breakfast and lunch but at dinnertime I still fail myself too often (yesterday was McDonalds) so that has to be next. One step at a time..

  • First log of the month: 3 miles down of 25 mile goal for this month.
  • Very new newbie here! My goal is to run at least twice a week. At my current pace with a bit of stretching that is 25 miles for the month! :) Gotta start somewhere! Working up to my first 5K scheduled for next May.
  • I am trying to eat more at home but when I do go out I find if I get meat and veggies I'm in my calories. I just have to skip the bread, potatoes and dessert! I ask for extra veggies to make sure I do not get hungry later. Some restaurants are generous with the veggies but some do charge me extra. Salads can work but you…
