No, you are not too old. Remember to listen to your body though. Follow the plan and take the rest days to avoid injury. In my opinion, you are never too old for anything!

Just did that run yesterday... One foot in front of the other. Positive self talk. It's a mental thing more than physical. I have even completed the program already- but quit running for 6 months. Had to start all over from square one. It's not any easier the second time around. It's still mind over matter! If you don't…

Got another 4 mile walk in tonight.

Didn't get to go back out for exercise yesterday because of the holiday and holiday plans- but I did go to a huge fair and walk around- just couldn't track it. Ended up being a pretty good day anyways- sorry a little off topic. Hope everyone had a good Independence Day (for those of you in the US). Now back on topic-…

Okay, so I added 2 miles today. Not sure if I am going to be able to get more in... I would still be walking but someone encouraged me not to, and now he is still out there :explode: :grumble:

Adding 6 miles for today: 2 miles C25K and 4 miles walking

Walked 5.5 miles... in the rain :smile: . It has been raining non-stop since last night, and doesn't look like it is going to let up until day after tomorrow. And I really want to stay on track so....

Just got 6 miles done: C25K- 2, Walking- 4. Can't believe how many have posted since this morning! Good luck, all!

I want to do this again. Going to try for 150 miles walking and jogging for sure. If I start biking, I will add those miles as well. Thanks for all the work that you put into this for us :flowerforyou: Edited to add ticker.

Finishing out the month with 8 miles today.

Got a whopping 0 miles in yesterday. But that's ok. Am getting ready to go out and get some walking done. Will post back a little later to update :smile:

Adding 6 miles today. C25K- 2.25, Walking- 3.75

1) I realized that I needed to change my exercise habits when I joined my local fire department and got winded putting on the bunker gear. I had always known that I was overweight/obese, but I always joked that "round is a shape". Well, after joining, I knew that I needed to be more fit, otherwise I would be useless to my…

Adding 6 miles walking. Means I made my goal with a few days to spare! Now to figure out what to up it to for next month! :drinker:

Adding 2 miles- C25K. Still need to walk at some point today, so will check in again to add the walking miles :smile:

Adding 2 miles for today...

I am doing it (again). Am on week 4- day 2 is tomorrow. I finished it last september then quit running. Figured I needed to get back into it.

Gotta love Mother Nature. Go outside in a temp of 89. With heat and humidity, it's about 103. Then, as I am walking a bird starts dive bombing me, for what reason, I don't know... :grumble: But I got 4 miles in, anyway... Now sitting here, literally dripping sweat.

Without exercise I try to stay around 1490. But am usually over. Usually end up around 1600-1800 cals.

0 miles yesterday. 4 miles walked today.

Couldn't pay me enough... stuff is nasty (imho).

I don't know if you have an Aldi in your area, but they are great for canned fruit, canned veggies, yogurt, and fresh produce. They also have good prices on pasta and sauces. Haven't looked at dried beans there, because I don't make a lot of those- though I should... They are also decent on eggs and milk. Otherwise, maybe…

It took me over a year to lose 40-ish pounds. Don't be so quick to give up. You didn't put the weight on overnight so it's not gonna fall off over night. Trust in the process and work towards your goals... you can achieve them if you put in the work and don't give up.

Adding 4 miles (C25K- 1.5 miles, walking 2.5 miles). Think I am gonna make it :smile:

Adding 8 miles for today.

Adding 6 miles- C25K (1.5 miles) and Walking (4.5 miles)

I know that it is difficult, but have you told him how his comments are affecting you? Maybe he doesn't realize that what he is saying is hurting you. If you have told him and he keeps it up, then yeah he is not being supportive at all. If he doesn't realize it, maybe telling him will make him more compassionate.

Adding 2 miles for today. May add more later but not sure.

0 miles moved yesterday, because of work and fathers day. Adding 4 miles today.

Adding 8 miles- (C25K: 2 miles, walking: 6 miles).
