Todays a rest day for me as I have the kids. Tomorrow and Saturday I will run then next week I begin training with the TEAM IN TRAINING group! Fun!!

Can you run on an outdoor track at a local high school?? You will be protecting your knees but still running. I worry though...why did you go all at with 4 miles?? Are you running inside on a treadmill? You are going to def get an injury if you go all gung ho in the beginning. I would start with 2 and work up slowly from…

I also realized if it is in "timer" mode it just doesnt seem to calcuate the calories as well as "chronos" mode...see where it was.

Just did a 30 minute run around my neighborhood-dont know the mileage.

In January I started where you were and just completed a 5K last week and signed up for more races. If you keep with this, you will totally be running in 2 to 3 months. Keep at it. A lot of people love the Couch to 5K program and we have a runners section under the fitness area. They are an amazing group and we check in…

Shuntae--Thats awesome. I didnt get a run in today. I had it all packed in my car but errands and a dinner out took longer than usual and it looks like it is going to pour. Im just gonna wake up early and run in the morning.

I have never had an issue with it. Did you delete your old log? Try it again and see. Did you have enough moisture on the chest part?

kraftfoods.com is amazing for family meals We usually enjoy--soup/grilled cheese, quesidillas, prierogies/veggie You could make homemade pizza Have a fondue night and use veggies rolls up-meat and cheese

Write that number down and post it everywhere!! Make it a motivation! Keep thinking about how you are going to come on here and post good results! Keep at it!

I have always used visualization when I played soccer in high school and now that I am running I am using it again. When I had to complete my 5K last week I totally would just close my eyes and pretend I was running through the whole course, what it looked like when I finished etc. I think it helps to see yourself being…

Wonderful job! I hopefully be will running one in August!!

Happy Sunday!! It is my daughters "fake bday" today (next sunday is her real bday) We are having her party with 25 kids for 3 hours at the local Y. I think that might be harder than running :) LOLOL I completed 4 miles this morning with the local running club. So excited--I finished in 40 minutes so thats a new PR for…
