  • I was doing the program fairly consistently, made it to W6D2, then slacked off for two weeks. Last night I decided to just set my distance run for 3.1 miles to see how long it took to complete. I knew I couldn't run the whole distance yet, but tried my darndest! I ran first mile, alternated walking/running for 1.1 mile,…

  • I accidentally skipped W5D2, and didn't notice it until 10 minutes into the 20 minute run! I went ahead and finished it, and continued on to W6D1. I guess I don't see the point in going backwards now. If you were able to do it, good for you!!! Go ahead and move on! Goodluck on your 5K! I got 3.01 miles in on W6D1, so I'm…
  • Haven't been on here much lately, but had to share my C25K accomplishment! I was on W5D2, but accidentally started W5D3. I was running my little heart out and finally thought "It's gotta be close to 8 minutes!" I looked at my phone, and lo and behold, it said I had 10:30 left! At this point, I couldn't stop and start over,…

  • I'm sorry- I rarely get on my PC at home, and I was off work all weekend. My cell doesn't allow me to get onto the message boards. If I can still be in the challenge, my weight was 168 on Saturday. If not, I understand. Thanks!
  • Check in for Thurs: 1) Ate 1502 calories! Eeek!!! Bad Girl!!! =( 2) Burned 391 calories (I don't think this is right...this is what MFP says, but Runtastic said 290...that's a huge difference!) 3) Rest day for C25K...tomorrow is W4D3!!! 4) Did not take any of my Rx today...had a REALLY rough day emotionally. That was the…
  • I have actually been diagnosed with the same thing! I'm only 30 and have no children of my own. When we first started going through all of the fertility treatments, my doc was pretty certain I had a uterine fibroid and sent me for ultrasounds and an MRI. It was determined there was no blood source to the mass, so it was…
  • Dusty- I just completed W4D2 last night too!!! Everytime I start a new week, and think I'm going to need to do extra sessions, I always surprise myself by just pushing on. So far I haven't regretted it! The 5 min runs are definitely trying for me, but far from impossible! I can't wait for W4D3!!!
  • Checking in for Tues & Wed!!! Tues: 1) Ate 1550 calories =( I was off all day and didn't go anywhere! Kept eating carbs!!!

Sudden change in the weather has made me…

  • Hi everyone! I am starting W4 either today or tomorrow! I actually started the program on 8/18, but did not join MFP until just last week and just found this thread last night. I've never been a runner, and I'm loving this program =) My husband has done several 5Ks and a 5mile race. He is training for a 1/2 Marathon on…
  • #1) I drink LOTS of water a day! I just log 10 glasses as a generic number...some days may be closer to 8, but most days are considerably more! #2) We have an elliptical sitting in our living room that I HATE!!! Thinking that since I've been running some, maybe my stamina is increasing, and maybe I'll give it another try!…

Go me!!! =) Goal #2: Did NOT burn 500 calories any of these three days =( But did average 300cals, so not too bad. Goal #3: I only ate 1083 cals on Fri, so close, but not quite! Then Sat & Sun…
  • Count me in! I'm not even sure if we will have the opportunity to do anything for Halloween (due to work schedules), but I may as well be HOT just in case, right?!? I'm finishing up W3 of C25K this weekend! So I will be up to running 5Ks by then! Walking/running daily. I have a gym membership I've been too self-conscious…
  • Thursday Check-In: 1) I completed W3D2 and improved from Tuesday night! Didn't do as well as I had hoped, but it was also 80+ degrees and muggy as heck! =) 2) Did NOT burn 500 calories! I was supposed to walk this morning, but we had severe thunderstorms, so I napped instead. Only burned 268. =( 3) Did NOT eat 1200…
  • Wednesday update: 1) Did NOT run any of my C25K today, it was my off day. Walked 5 miles though! KrisPage---I notice we are on the same week and day! I struggled a little too this time, but I pushed through! Keep it up!!! 2) Did NOT "officially" log 500 calories burned. However, we were at 448 from our walk, and I actually…
  • Thanks for the warm welcome MAK_01 and lttee! Oh, and lttee- Whitman is actually my last name, not for the author, who I can't remember if I liked reading in high school or not!
