Hello I am Shirley, I used to run when I was in High School, I ran Track and Cross Country. After High school I started training for a full Marathon but got injured during the process. My knees gave out and maybe it was due to not having proper shoes. I was not able to run for years because every time I tried my knees…

This sounds like a lot of fun, cannot wait to see the results

Thanks for the responses I really appreciate it

First time participant, this sounds like a lot of fun. Currently training for a half marathon so I am in for 90 miles in November I hope I can make it but it is a challenge.

So here is my question for you, do you run the races for the enjoyment of running and pushing yourself or are you competing to win? I think that might make a big difference on how you see the races. I have two kids and work full time, it is not easy for me to get out there and run in the AM since I have to get my daughter…

Thanks for the response I really appreciate it

I need to loose weight too, so you are more focused on eating a certain number of calories?

This is such a great post, do any of you worry about hitting macros? what do you have set for Macros here on MFP?

I love Turbo Fire here are my stats when I did the workout Turbo Fire Started 8/9/2011 Completed 3 months on November 2011 Lost 8lbs Have Lost 7.5 inches overall (3 inches from waist and 1.5 hips) I really need to go back to it because I was successful with it. I tend to get bored after I complete a program and do not want…

Great job, what was your diet like?

Thank you for all of the information, I have a lot of reading to do

Thank you it is just starting to get cold here so I will really try this during the winter runs

Thank you for all of this information it is really good.

Yes I plan to run maybe two of those 10ks next year to see how I have improved. The first 10k I am actually replacing it with the Half Marathon at the same event.

You are so right I am starting to see a lot more muscle in my legs so not complaining about that.. Thanks

Congrats on the accomplishment that is awesome

It is nice to look at my stats since I started running again last year, I love seeing how my pace has improved. That keeps me motivated and makes me want to keep going and get under a 10 min pace. *****5K Splash Mob 07/21/2012 (37:49 mins, pace 12 min mile) *****Hot Chocolate 5K 12/09/2012 (34 mins, pace 10:56 min mile)…

I tried Endomondo and was not a fan, I am currently using Runkeeper because it synchs with MFP and I have come to like the App. But I also use NikeApp because I like how I can tag my shoes and keep track of the miles I put in them.

Just wanted to say congrats on the completed your first Half, I will be running my first In March of next year and cannot wait .

Sorry I have to ask what is TDEE-20%?

Thanks for the responses this really helps me a lot
