I was finding myself getting to overheated running in the evening and was literally soaked to the skin in sweat. By default there was a couple of times I went in the morning as I wouldn't have time to go that day if I didn't. It is so much cooler in the morning!! (I'm talking just as the sun is starting to come up.) I…

My youthful looks. Almost everyone thinks I am in my 20s. Im actually 35.

Really? Not sure I've heard that one before!

I'm pretty sure my feet should be used to my shoes by now. I've had them for just over 2 months now. The problem didn't start until I started doing the longer runs in the training. I can't shorten my runs as I am getting for a 5k. I have heard of socks that would help, but I'm hoping for a more affordable solution!

I fully agree!! It IS a great start to the day!!!

W7D2 is done! I've found that running in the morning is so much nicer. It's much cooler then in the evening. Also the route I run when I go in the morning is different and there are no street lights to stop me! :tongue: Question: Does anyone have problem with blisters? I keep getting them on my toes. (Mostly the two right…

Some of this mornings thoughts: Good morning crows. Why are the street lights flashing? hmm that guy looks kinda of cute I think I am getting close to the next 5 minute interval What's that noise??? This so easy! I can do this! I hope I don't get any new blisters Group of loud guys run faster!!! As a song from my grampy's…

W7D1 completed!!!! This morning I stayed close to home and did my run. The run I did does NOT give me street lights. I activated my RunKeeper (I used it to give me my distance, pace and calories since the C25K app doesn't) By doing that I was better able to track my distance. I ran just a shade under 4k in 25 minutes!!! I…

W6D3 completed!!!!!!! I can't believe I have gotten to the point where I can run non-stop for over 20 minutes and I don't need a break!!!! :happy: :happy: Between my walking to/from work and my training run tonight, I walked/ran over 10k today. Yesterday I did my JM workout for the first time in a couple of months. I…

I don't log mints or gum. The tictacs I have most of them, state they are 0 calories anyway.

Fight to keep my eyes open. Had to yesterday on the way home on the bus. I wasn't tired at work but as soon as I left I couldn't stop yawning, and couldn't keep my eyes open on the bus!

I used to work at call center and had my phone stolen out of my book bag at work. Well over two YEARS later, I got a call that my phone had been "found". I didn't even work there anymore at that point!

At least they are in the sink. The lawyer I work for leaves his dishes in his office or on just on the counter or in the conference room or.........

I need motivation for running in the rain. It's been like this all week and I don't have the motivation to go out. I hate getting wet in the rain!
-
Get yourself fitted for running sneakers. They are expensive yes but they are worth the investment, and your feet will thank you for it.
-
Replace them with one size smaller, as I can afford to.
-
I just wanted to add that I learned the importance of stretching before and after a run. I didn't last week for the first couple days. My lower back legs were killing me for a couple of days. I wanted to go for a run Friday morning, but knew I had to rest my legs. Saturday they were feeling better and I made sure to…

While I was without any internet access whatsoever, I completed W6D1 (Thursday morning) and W6D2 (this morning). I was out at family camp out in the county. I went running on a dirt road (first time) and enjoyed the sounds of birds chirping, saw some bunnies, squirrels and a deer! Certainly don't get that running in the…

I did it!!!!! I did the 20 min run!!!!!!!!!
-
W6D2 completed! I went early this morning in my home town. So much quieter and more peaceful then my the city where I live! Tomorrow is my 20 minute run. I think I am ready for it!
-
On vacation but still getting my run in. W6D2 on for tomorrow with the dreaded 20 min run on for Tuesday morning. I did place out my running path. It should be good. There will be no street lights to stop me!
-
W5D1 completed!!! I went early this morning as I won't have time tonight to go. It was so refreshing and invigorating to go first thing this morning!! As I was doing the 5 minute runs, and it told me to slow down for my walk, I didn't want to! I could have kept on going! Bring on the 8 minute run! (Probably not Saturday. I…
-
I was planning on starting W5 tonight, but after over 5 hours of walking around today at Canada Day festivities, my feet are begging for a rest. I am hoping I can get myself up early enough Thursday morning (or maybe even tomorrow) and do it. I won't have time for an evening run this week and with 50+ mm of rain coming…

So do I!
-
W4D3 done!!!! It's getting so much easier on those 5 min runs. I've learned to pace myself a lot easier. Also my back doesn't bother me any more when I am done. The summer weather has finally arrived and I'm seeing less and less runners when I am out in the evening. Saturday I saw one person. Today I saw two. Yes it was a…
-
W4D2 completed!!! Despite the hot weather (it's 28C right now which is about 85F) I still went out. As I was running around the Commons I realized I was the only one out there running! I always encounter other runners and I wasn't tonight. I started thinking I was the only idiot to go out there and run. Then I had someone…

Excited to do W4D2 tonight. I would have done it last night but the heavy downpours wasn't letting up.
