The 5K went great! We did the Color Run so it was a lot of fun and a lot of people. We wound up finishing in 33 minutes! I just started a new training program (just to have something to keep me on task) called Running 4 Fat Loss on Runkeeper - it's sometimes too many days a week for me so I'm adjusting as needed, but it's…

Thanks for the feedback and the advice to call! My new Flex is on the way, even though I didn't have a receipt. Really high quality service.

Hey @strawmama - did you have your receipt still? I'm hoping they will still help me out since I don't have it.

Thanks! I am on hold now.

First 5K was crazy - so many people (it was the Color Run)! But we finished in 33 minutes! 1:15 faster than my normal pace! Woohooo!

Graduated today!!! With my best pace and distance! Woohooo. First 5K is Saturday!

Just as an update - I have just one workout left in C25K and my first 5K race is Saturday! I ran a full 5K (no stopping) at the end of week 8 in 36:41. I'm definitely starting to notice the tiredness of my legs and can adjust my run expectations on that - for instance Week 9 Day 1 - thought I was going to die, but Day 2 of…

Hi! I got my dress in January and I'm not getting married until May 2015! A few reasons - I don't like dresses and I thought I would have a hard time find one; there was a dress I knew I had to try on before I could decide. There was this one dress I loved online and I knew I needed to try it on before I could pick a…

Congratulations! My fiance and I got engaged August 24, 2013 (almost a whole year ago now)! We are getting married in May 2015. It just happened to work out that way - my cousin is getting married in September and I didn't want to take away from her wedding, plus we loved having all this extra time. We just booked our last…

I eat the net, but I'm a pretty active person after work so I have a bigger exercise number - that being said I only eat if I'm hungry, so if I have calories left but I'm not hungry I leave them.

I think I'll just need to make sure there are days between runs - I sometimes run back-to-back days and I cross-train with zumba, so I only have 1 or 2 off days a week. I'll have to see if I can space the running out a bit.

Oh I could talk - my fiance was running with me and we were chatting most of the time (mainly about how I hated him for making me run haha). :-D

I didn't even think I was going fast. I thought I was moving so slow. Though I keep my app open so I know when to change intervals I refuse to look at it until I finish, so I never really know my pace. I just try to stay within my heart rate range. I'll try to slow it down more though. Thanks for the advice!

Hi, I go to Zumba on off days! It's a great way to stretch out those muscles. Sometimes I walk or do strength training instead, or just take a day off if I'm really beat!
