I am down to losing my last 5-10 lbs....at 140.5 would like to weigh 135. If I can reach that I will maybe try for 130, not sure if that is doable for me. feel free to add me if you like :)

that is awesome! I also used the Hal Higdon training plan when I did my half-marathon. Good luck!

I only ended up getting 2 runs in this week. Monday i did 10K, and yesterday 8K. I was called in to work (I work casual) and when that happens I often don't get my runs in. So....today I will be running but not sure how far. could be a TM run. AHHCK!

I am using Runkeeper as well on my iPhone. LOVE IT! We do also have a Garmin 205, but my husband runs too and he uses that most of the time. It is an older model I guess...but works great.

I use a handheld bottle holder by asics. it will hold a bottle and has a zipper where I can put a gel if I need one. I prefer not to carry anything, but use this on any runs usually longer than 6-7 miles. I also have a belt one, but really don't like running with anything bouncing on my waist. I guess I need to just get…

About the treadmill..... I agree! I only run on it when I have to. I am happy to have one, but at the same time hate using it. The most I have run on it is 10 miles, and that is only once, and I still can't believe that I did it. Lol Normally I do anywhere from 30-45 minutes and that is my limit. It is another windy day…

I am a day behind here...but yesterday I ran 8K. It was very windy and cool.....I ended up doing a one-way run and got my hubby to drop me off 8K up the road (he was going that way anyway! hehe) and I ran home with the wind at my back. It was great. Not near as cold when the wind is not in your face.

MFP is a really great site. I am using the iPhone app, very handy. Will add you!

You are doing great! I love MFP, I am using the iPhone app....so handy. Keep on going :)

we have the polar FT4 and it works like a charm. Tracks your calories as well.

Had another great run today, I have been having some good runs this week. Just been feeling good! Did 5 miles today....just enough! Nov 7 - 6.22 Nov 9 - 8.75 Nov 12 - 5.00 Nov 13 - 5.00 GROUP B

So very sorry to hear this, I hope that a donor is found and things work out. Prayers and thoughts coming your way...

I remember it!! :tongue:

wow!! A goofy is a half one day and a full the next? I know a girl who is doing one of these in January. Good luck to you, and have fun :)

wow....good for you, get lots of rest on Sunday night and have a great 17 miler!! I can't even imagine :) Maybe someday....

Today, I did an interval workout. It was hard, but good! I did a total of 5 miles, with a mile warm up and a mile cool down. So glad its done! I have been using the runkeeper app to track my runs and pace etc etc. We do have a garmin, but my husband runs too so he usually uses that. What does everyone use for gps device?

Hello! I'm Maureen from NS Canada. I love running! I have done 2 half-marathons, and quite a few 10K races. I try to run 4-5 times a week. Looking forward to posting and getting to know you all!

AWESOME!! Thanks for posting, you are very inspiring! :wink:

Just back from a 5 mile interval run! Nov 7 - 6.22 Nov 9 - 8.75 Nov 12 - 5.00 GROUP B Will have to get back out there tomorrow and run at least 6 miles!

I often pop gum into my mouth before I leave for a run, or go to my strength class. I guess I am not the only werido!! :laugh: hehe

Just back from an 8.75 mile run :) So...I now have Nov 7 - 6.22 Nov 9 - 8.75 and am in Group B

My husband also has the Polar FT4 and loves it. Not expensive, and works like a charm. When you get it you program in your weight, height, gender etc etc and it calculates your calories for you while you exercise. i use it a lot myself, it is great!

I lost a lot! I can't remember what I was....its been a few years now. But, I was probably a 38D or so. Now I am a 34B. Theres not much left. :laugh: :laugh:

Hey there, I have lost about 65....and am trying for those last 10 or so. Up and down, up and down, just enough to keep me from my goal! I will add you, and anyone else that wants to add me, feel free!

I would love to join this challenge, I hope its not too late! I am going to aim for 25 running miles. I joined a challenge once before and I think I somehow lost the thread, or couldn't find it the next time I went on. So....hopefully that won't happen to me this time! I did run yesterday so for this week heres where I'm…

Great ideas in here stefchica....I will be adding some black beans to mine tomorrow. I always seem to have a job getting my protiens in...so that will be great.

I eat a salad everyday for lunch too. I like to put slivered almonds and craisons in mine. If I don't have chicken I will add an egg. Today my salad was.... baby spinach broccolli cauliflower mushroom tomato red onion chicken craisons

I am pretty new to protien powders myself. We just recently bought Promasil as it was recommended and on sale at GNC. No idea if its a good one compared to others in ingredience or taste. Has anyone ever used it, or has anything good or bad to say about it? Thanks :)

Kudos to you for getting up early for that run! That is dedication :) I think that if you got up a bit earlier and had something in your stomach it would help. I have only had to get up "that" early to run a few times and I can remember feeling that as well. Good luck to you and keep on running!
