And each week we couldn't imagine running the added minutes, but this program does make it easier building you up at it a little at a time. I never thought I could run for 25 minutes straight.

Thanks all for the ideas. CrazyTrack, I've been a healthy eater for several years and will continue to do so after these 2 weeks. As I said, I'm just looking to shed a few remaining pounds around the mid section that have been difficult to keep off since hitting age 50 (or 40 for that matter). I work out hard 5 days a week…
