Happy Thanksgiving my 30/40/50 brothers and sisters. Enjoy the day, eat, use this as a cheat day (sensibly).

Check 5k off bucket list !!! Had a great time. My main take away was seeing the finish line and pouring on the speed for a strong finish. Mind you that I have never ran a race of any type before. Even with an aching hip. Nothing ice, heat,and ibuprofen cant fix. Pictures to follow.

5k in 16 hours. Time to recharge batteries for the big day. Nite everybody.

Quote for the day: I may be circling the drain, but I have a few steps left in me!!! Alright all of u middle agers, get out there and bring it!!!

52 and 1st 5k in 3 days. I just finished the Couch to 5k program this morning. And I am actually anxious to get out there and let it rip. Ooh-rah !! Weight down by 16 lbs. Playlist prepped and ready to go, all geared toward running: ZZ Top, Aerosmith, Stray Cats, Johnny Cash, Enimen, Harry Belafonte and ending at finish…

It is a Happy Friday. 33 days and 16.2 fewer pounds. Was trying to do 15 lbs in 30 days. Unfortunately I have a weakness for Halloween candy. 1st 5k = 9 days away 😄

Everybody is different. I can tell you my wife had the surgery to band her stomach. She did not stick with the diet and exercise that goes along with the surgery. She gained the weight back. Eating is a problem for her because of the physical reaction to eating more than smallish portions. There are a number of factors…

I'm looking for feedback on pre-work powder/drink. I am looking for something that will not cause me to drop dead or grow a 3rd eye. I am healthy with minimal health issues. There are so many to choose from. I'm looking for something to give me some "umph" when I'm working out or running.

I'm on it. Was out in 36 degree weather busting it this morning. I have been training on the race course that will be use. I can finish the whole thing sn have been pushing through the pain. For the last 16 days will be working on endurance. Everybody have a good weekend. I will be iceing my ankle this evening 😁

@kmac0822 hang in there with the D. Been through something close to that. Gym helped me blow off some steam. Chopping wood at full speed also helped.👍

Ditto @gemiller87. Coming from the dad of three with a massive soft drink addiction (the real stuff with sugar) and belly to match. Roughly two months clean. 😏

Tennessee by way of Western North Carolina, the "original" Furniture Capital of the World (no offense High Point). 😁

Same here. Love the app.

Thanks guys

Absolutely, especially if u are starting exercise for this time. Or in my case in the 50+ crew.

52 and 1st 5k, here I come. 19 days and counting. 50 is the new 30. Hoo-rah !!!

That's great TheMrWobbly. I'm also doing C25K. I've walk/ran the entire course in 56 min. Now working on dropping time a little more. Ive trained in cold and rain so I'm ready for whatever comes. Uptempo playlist to set my cadence: Johnny Cash, Eminem, ZZ Top, Aerosmith, DMX, ........ Thanks to all of u for the supportive…

MFP has been the key to the weight loss. I now know when I'm reaching my calorie max for the day.
