I'm just getting back into fitness etc - have set myself the challenge of a half marathon on the 6th September!!!! :noway: so this challenge is perfect for me to keep me motivated - thank you setting myself the challenge of 50 miles this month. So far Thursday 3rd 1.24 miles Friday 4th 1.24 miles Sunday 6th 2.5 miles…

I moved up to level 2 last night, omg its a big of a jump. Was feeling nice and secure on level 1, now I'm back out of my comfort zone. Bring it on! :happy:

today is day 6 at level one for me. I seem to be getting through it - but those arm raises with the side lunges - OMG feel like my arms are going to fall off! lol bit worried about starting level 2 after all the comments on here - it can't be that bad right? :ohwell:

thanks guys. Training is going well, so far. I have come across terms like TEMPO training, on the plans I have downloaded. It said run 5 mins warm up, 5 mins easy pace, 5 mins fast, 5 mins easy, 5 mins fast, 5 mins cool down (to start with) and then to build this up so there are longer fast periods and shorter easy pace…

I'm doing my first half marathon in May - I've found training plans on the BUPA website. Good Luck x

Originally from Dundee, but living in Denny, and working in Grangemouth xxx

thank you x

Today will be day 5 for me. I'm struggling with the arm raises when you do the side lunges - they are killers - keeping at it though - no pain no gain right? :) Can you tell me, when do we move up levels? Is it 10 days per level? thanks Sheena x

I'm doing the falkirk race for life too. I also do the Strathcarron 10k - thats in October - you might be interested in that one. I heard there was a 10k in September in Stirling - thats a flatter course if your interested?

I've just signed back up - need to keep motivated this time. Need all the support I can get - are there any challenges I can join? I live in Denny x

i would definitely be interested - I've just started back and need to be focused - got a wedding in 9 weeks - and want to feel comfortable x

Can I ask what this challenge is? And how do you join? I really need something to keep me focused x

am I too late to join?

Hi I'm Sheena, originally from Dundee, but now living in Denny. Last year i lost over a stone - but then injured my foot and couldn't exercise for 3 months - and used this as an excuse to pig out! Anyway now have closer to 2 stone to loose now. setting myself two challenges - the falkirk race for life in May (5k) and then…

I'm on 1280 calories. Only on day 2 so not doing too bad - YET! lol x:blushing:

thanks x

my husband and I got married at 24, we've now been married for 13 years and have 2 daughters one aged 8 and one aged 5. I would truly be lost without him. I truly believe there is no right age to get married - you have to do what feels right for you. Don't pressurise yourselves

I did the falkirk one - my advice to you - get some hill training in! sx

sorry what is Herbalife - educate me pretty please. always on the look out for help! x

Have to say i'm a huge fan of Davina's dvds. I love power of 3, and her 3 30 min workouts. I've recently bought her new dvd not tried it yet. fingers crossed its as good x

I'm definitely thinking about it - has registration opened? You've got plenty of time to train - just believe in yourself - a fantastic cause. I've ran the race for life before - and I have to say i was in tears reading everyones stories on their backs. made me more determined. Good Luck! :flowerforyou:

how much water should I be drinking? I'm going for a glass everytime I feel hungry, having that first to try and combat the food wants. I know I'm not hungry so don't want to say hunger pangs! Islandjumper - I'm also a vegetarian - do you have any other tips?

Thank you guys. I think thats really true BigJimmyu - we're all human and I suppose slip ups are inevitable. i think i should cut myself some slack and not worry about it - as I'll probably make myself slip up through the worry! vicious circle Jasmincontrer - thank you so much for that tip - never thought of that before -…
