I agree with Carson on the increase time frame. I finished my 1st half in July and gradually increased my long runs. I kept my runs during the week down to 3-4 miles 2 times per week, and the long runs increased by 10% and held that for a couple of weeks before increasing again. There are a ton of running schedules you can…

Congrats! What an awesome and motivating story! Keep up the great work.

You can do it!

Dried fruits are also a good source of iron.

This is awesome ! And so true! LOL

Congrats! You should be very proud of yourself. I am sure being an overweight teenager was not easy and the journey to loss it even tougher.

Congrats on a huge success! You look great, keep up the good work!

Truely awesome story!

Looking Good! Keep up the great work!

You look fabulous! Congrats on your success!

I have been told that it is a lack of iron. I don't know if that is totally correct, but if I crave beef I eat it.

Congrats! You look great!

Try a run/walk plan. I like Jeff Galloway's. Running is very therapeutic. Good Luck.

Are you stretching enough after runs?

I am always looking for more runnings for support. I will officially start my half training Feb 20th. Feel free to add me.

Diddo!

I will be doing my first half in Chicago!!!!

I find I have this feeling everytime I run! It is totally a mental block. Like your brain is saying this is hard work STOP! I find it happens most often between miles 2 & 3, after I get past mile 3 it seems to be better. Someone told me once that you have to use the other side of your brain to distract yourself. I have…

I am using Jeff Galloway's 1/2 training! I love it!

Doing the Chicago 1/2!

This is an incorrect statement as well - Green Tea has 25mg per cup vs. Soda averages from 25-40 mg Coffee 95-110 mg Decaf Coffee 15-20 mg So it is up to you weather you count it or not but here are some facts.

What a great article!

My 1st half in July!!!!

I feel the same way many days!! If you can find a workout that enables you to leave the house, requiring him to deal with the kids and know that he will not be rescued. I have been working on me for going on 2 years now, and find it hard to make him do things to help. I just keep trying. I think that most of us were raised…

Start slow, run/walk intervals work great to get the body used to running and avoid injury. There are a lot of programs out there for runners of all types. Pick a distance that you would like to shot for and search. You will find a program that will fit your schedule. Good Luck to you, I have found great pleasure in…

I have my 1st half coming up next summer, but yes I am a run/walker. I don't know that I have any desire to every run a long race like that without taking walk breaks.

What is your goal per week set at?? I was stuck with the last 10 lbs and really struggled. I recenctly changed my goal to just .5 lbs per week and am losing again.

I haven't found a soup yet that I can't make a big patch and divide into cantainers and freeze.
