@ KCGGIRL, LOL, I love that thought..."Did you get off the couch?" I think the same thing when people tell me that I can't count my miles if I walk it. Well if I ran 3 and wanna walk 1 to hit 4 miles for the day, I'll count my miles. A Mile is a Mile.

My first was 11:10, not the fastest...My second way 10:39, running in the rain I think my time would have been faster if I had not been afraid to fall while running. I was extra cautious on this day! I have another one in July and I am hopping to run it in 30 min flat or less. I have found that I always run a bit faster on…

A.loha, I would rest for at least three days prior to your race. I just ran a 5k in March and three days prior to the race I forced myself to relax and focused on stretching out my muscles and my diet to prepare for the race. It worked for my, I ran a PR 31:00 5k and for me that was awesome. I'm not sure what your fitness…

Ohh, a 30DS group. I'm on day 3, and boy are my legs aching! Good luck to all and I'm interested in seeing everyone's amazing results! :wink:

YOU ROCK!! Doesn't it make you feel so empowered? Keep it up!

What if you just make your own burrito, in a healthier and ligher way? Make your our salsa, grill your chicken with cumin and chili powder, get light sour cream and light cheese then add black beans and you could have a burrito for half the calories. Experiment with the spices that they add to create your even better…

Maybe comparing your before and now pictures will help you see a change. This really helps me notice tiny differences and keep on track. I tend to give up very easily if I can't see progress. Good luck

Weighing in....151.4 When I get my tape measure I'll send my my measurements in. Good luck all....

I mean I prep my veggies ahead...

Yipee!! I'm in!!! Can't wait to be a hot mom trick or treating with my kids!

A 5k is a 5k! You did it. You completed a 5k, now you know your time for a complete 5k and slowly improve it. I did a 5k two years ago and finished in 31:00 min, the week prior to the race it took me 45:xx min. Everyday you get faster and stronger. You can do it. Don't quit. The high you get on race day will help you go…

Another 3.25 miles down only 4.15 miles left. I am hoping to get a one mile walk in to shave off another mile. Thanks guys for keeping me moving.

Mahalo mom2nate08, he is doing much better now. We had a series of dr. appts yesterday and tomorrow, to pinpoint what his allergy is. I forgot what waiting to be seen by a dr. entails. OMG 2 hrs yesterday and 2 hrs waiting for the meds at the pharmacy!I am really hoping to get my miles in this week, but if I can't I'll…

Once again I'm in. I feel short of my goal last week my .75 miles. I fully intended to complete it but my son ended up in the ER Friday night due to an allergic reaction! I had little sleep and zero energy for any type of movement on Saturday. I am determined this week!! Good luck to all my old friends and welcome newbies.…

Aloha all, 4 miles yesterday and another 4.25 today!!! Only 3/4 miles left till I meet our goal. Can't wait to complete our goal. Keep on moving....we can do it!:flowerforyou:

Hi ya, I got 3 more miles in the bag, a grand total of 7 miles. I am hopping to get a 4 or 5 miler done tomorrow to help me get closer to my goal. Keep on moving. Aloha, firemama

In the past I used my HRM while doing Chalean and burned about 250 calories. I am about 150 lbs, 5' 5'. I would use a HRM while working out to find out your calorie burn. -Aloha-

Aloha All, I did 4 miles today and my "new" thing for the week is ab exercises, I'll do 100 abercises 5x this week. Good luck and happy moving.

I love mini challenges I'm in! Good luck everyone.

Goal complete!!! Yipee..looking forward to next week's mini challenge.

I agree reese66, can't wait to see what we're up against next week? A mile or two increase? Happy Saturday friends.

Aloha all, Checking in : 2.3 miles remaining.....we can do it!

Try find one low in sugar and high in protein. It is best to buy whey powder and make your own. If you visit one of your local vitamin stors, GNC, Vitamin world etc. the clerk should be able to help you out. Good luck, na firemama

Aloha all, I logged 4 miles today brining my grand total up to 8, only 7 left! We can do it!

I'm in...good luck all. Just keep moving, just keep moving :laugh:
