I usually concentrate on length of time running, then distance.

Eminem - Won't Back Down I have this some on my playlist when I know I am about to hit the mental wall while jogging to keep me going.

For the past several weeks, 9:30PM or later.

Way to go.

I'll try it. Have lots of yard work to do and working out.

I am right there with you. I never have saw myself as fit, even at my lightest and fittest.

It is a great place and application. I have used it for 4 months and it has really kept me accountable and down 40lbs.

In through the nose, out through the mouth. Helps regulate your heartrate.

Exactly, you need to make sure they are correct. I would get awful shin splints until I got the right shoes and stretched before and even better afterwards.

That is what I need to do. I usually have one diet soda a day. I have not had non-diet soda since 1/17/2011.

DO NOT GIVE UP. Stick with it. You will start to see the difference.

Most places that are good shoe stores or athletic stores can help you get what you need. Most will offer a diagnosis of what type of shoe you should be wearing. I have an Addidas pair that are the best running shoes I have owned for around $60. Its not if you need a running shoe, it is what type of shoe you need. Support,…

If you don't eat them, they your body will fight back. It will literally start to feast on muscle tissue and slow your metobolic rate down, then you will gain weight. Eat the calories in a good way, or at least get very close to them.

I log most things. If it is something that is say 20-30 calories and I only have that once a day then no, I don't get that detailed. If I do that with 10 things a day, then yes I log it.

Couch 2 5k C25K. http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml Works great for most people.

I'm with you. I want one to keep it dry and I have fairly muscular arms and don't want it to be too tight.

Thanks all. It has been hard, but well worth it. I don't get as tired anymore with my kids. Can hardly wait until I can see what another 40 down does for me.

I got mine from Target. Taylor brand, I think they were right at $25.00.

Blackened I am going to try this one this weekend. http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/browse-all-recipes/blackened-salmon-rice-10000001572920/index.html

Awesome

Slow down as well. You can do it.

I use a Phillips set that wraps around he ear and not into the ear. They are really comfortable and have good sound quality, but allow you to hear since they fit on the ear. Here is the link.…

My wife is here as well. She just started this week.

Great job.

You must stretch before and more importantly after you run. The pain or soreness in your shins are the beginning of shin splints. I have had them several times before and it is really painful if not taking care of. What is happening to them is the thin membrane that attaches the muscle to the bone is seperating from your…

Get back on it with support and figure out why you fell off. I did the same thing last week and had to work hard to get back into it. I think I am going to even join an Anytime Fitness this weekend.

Sent you a friend request to help motivate you and myself.
