@Jackson - I understand your question - I do not have a gym membership and due to space don't own a treadmill. I run outside rain or shine. Wish I had trails closer by, but the streets and our near by lake (small) will just have to do. The heat is hard on me, but 0530am or late evening usually takes care of that. I use a…

THIS IS AN AWESOME JOB!!!!!

I have a set of 5, 10 and 12lb weights. You can also get a set of 3lb. I would suggest working with whatever you feel comfortable with until you can increase safely to heavier weights. Strength training is an excellent addition to your work out schedule and will increase your metabolism. Good Luck and have fun.

I will be missing the rest of my mileage over the weekend, but there is always next month and I have a 10K training in the works. Should be an easy August. Way to go everyone on your accomplishments and here is to a great…

Hello fellow shorties - I am 5'1" SW 135 CW 119 GW 115 or less My age is killing me with losing weight. Never had to fight this hard.

Wish I was closer, going to be a great time!!

Nothing makes me feel better than when my husband compliments me!!! He loves my running muscles and I have a new found addiction to keeping them just for him :) Way to go on your running and success!!!

My first race was a mud run and that is what motivated me to boost up my workouts. I started with the C25K and have built from there. I also added some simple push ups everyday. Luckily, I have always been pretty athletic and the obstacles didn't worry me, well the crossbars did, but I decided to just deal with them when I…

Congratulations!!! I more than understand, I am right there with you. I just put on those same jeans the other day and could not believe I fit into them again. I was motivated to try on a couple other back of the closet items and to my surprise I have a few new things to wear. Keep up the great work!!

I run about a 9min mile, but all pictures taken of me from a 5K make me look like a crazy woman running. I have good form but my facial expressions are insane. At least we are all moving and improving!!
