I also start Monday-just got my parcel in the mail yesterday. Friend me as well! :)

Can you share what this might actually look like? I've never done a reboot....thanks!

You look so great! Congrats on your accomplishment to date!

I'm with you. I finished W1 D3 on Saturday, but my shin splints were so bad I feel like I want to do at least one more of them to see if I can speed up. I felt like I was jogging so slow due to the shins. :( Still happy with myself though!

You sure did do it! Take everything positive as a victory!!!!

I did my week 1 day 2 tonight on the treadmill. It's minus 32 deg C out there so off to the YMCA I went. I made it through, never once thought about stopping even though I had the shin splints again. I do have good sneakers, and good orthotics. I'll try some stretches, as I have not been doing those before the jog/walk.…

Great tips - that video is good. Must get used to bending at the ankle...... Thanks!

Loving the pants comment - good for you! Excellent update - I'll be doing W1D2 today after work. I was hoping to do it outdoors, but looks like I'll be hitting the treadmill. It's -20deg C outside.....feels like -32deg C with the windchill factor! YIKES! http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/cans0002

I'm in Amherst, NS. Feel free to add me if you'd like! :)

I am in Amherst - would love to join anyone's support team - especially if you're in Nova Scotia! I am a newfoundlander...so if you live in Newfoundland add me! Aaahhhh, heck - I'm Canadian, so if you're in Canada seek me out! I log every day, and I just started a Couch 2 5K program.....which I'm really enjoying so if…

Me too....it's awesome to have others at the same spot in C25K as I am. Welcome....glad we're friends on here now!

Can't say that I found my quads an issue. I guess just overall my whole body felt kinda stiff/tight. My shins hurt quite a bit during all the jog portions (I did W1D1 yesterday) bu I know whenever I try jogging I have shin splints and have to just work through it. So glad to have others on here that are at the same cycle…

I've never heard of a C25K podcast....can't even imagine what that is so I will def be checking that out! Thanks for the tip!

I just did week 1 day 1 yesterday and loved it. It was super cold out -8deg C, but I felt like the King of the World! I was slow moving though due to shin splints. But, I know from experience they'll go away once my shins realize I mean business! It also can't help that I'm pounding my knees/ankles/shins with 220lbs of…

I just did week 1 day 1 yesterday - bad shin splints but I really enjoyed it!

I just did w1d1 yesterday! Anyone can add me as a friend....cuz I need the accountability as well! It was minux 8 deg celcius yesterday when I ran.......so cold but still was great! :)

Just went out and did week 1 run 1. I went out last night and did week 1 run 1 as well, but didn't log it in my app so I'll count tonight as my first run. I wouldn't exactly call it a run, but it was definitely a jog. I got bad shin splints again tonight, but my husband (who's a runner) gave me some guidance on how to run…

I did night one last night - so I'm in. Anyone else on here just starting this thing?

I'd like to join. 37 years old and been trying to lose weight (and thinking about trying to lose weight) for at least 6 years. Been hating the stuff I eat for well over 15 years. I work full time and my husband has lost 130 pounds....so it's time to get serious. I have an 8 year old daughter who is awesome and if nothing…

Thanks for the suggestion, that's a great alternative to potatoes! I must try this!

I am roughly one week in, and I'm not sure. This is my first post on a message board, and I sit here wanting to go to the kitchen and eat something unhealthy. I'm ready for a snack, and when I look back at my food journal for the past week all my snacks have been pure crap. For meals I'm doing OK, but for snacks I keep…
