I have been going almost every day and not sore so i am happy.  I run with my dog and son.  They help motivate me.  I need to lose like 100 pounds.  I also want to do some 5K soon.

1. Some days seem harder than others for no reason. Just accept it.
2. If you get to the end of a run and you feel like you can go a bit further, go for it but stop before you feel wrecked. 
3. Eat a piece of fruit half an hour before you go. 
4. Leave at least 1 day between runs.
5. Don’t neglect stretching before and after each run. 
6. Knee guards actually make a difference. 
7. And here is the big one. When you get to the runs without walks, you have to change your mindset. Before you take off, picture yourself running to the end without the breaks. 
Enjoy!

]]>6747Mon, 19 Apr 2021 01:20:39 +0000Week 1, Day 1https://forums.zenlabsfitness.com/topic/6737-week-1-day-1/ I’m nervous about starting this program. I think I’ve finally admitted to myself that I gained a few pounds and I’m not longer the fit, cross-country runner I used to be in high school.

My goals are:

- lose 25 pounds in the next 3 months

- build your confidence 

- slim down thighs and calves a little

- be able to run 30 minutes without stopping.

Anyone else on here gain the freshmen 15 (or more in my case) and looking to work it off?

]]>6665Fri, 12 Mar 2021 15:33:59 +0000Danahttps://forums.zenlabsfitness.com/topic/6629-dana/ Hi! Training is a new thing for me. I have always just signed up for a race and completed it one foot infront of another jogging/running the whole time.

I have not run more then 1.5 miles since April 2020 when races were set down. I signed up for 10 miles April 2021. I know I need to train so I am starting with C25k and will increase from there. However, I am not a huge fan of the intervals.

Any training advice or tips greatly appreciated. 

Thanks & happy running everyone!!!

]]>6164Sun, 13 Sep 2020 02:21:56 +0000Doing betterhttps://forums.zenlabsfitness.com/topic/6057-doing-better/ For the first part of quarantine I really let myself drop into a depression. I got up to my highest weight (151.8 lbs) and had no energy or will to do anything. 

I don’t know what it was but something just told me to do better. So far, I’m down 11.9 lbs and I’ve been jogging every morning. I was just doing random intervals but I’ve decided to do the 10k program. 

My goals for 2020 are to get down to 120 lbs, be able to jog a 10k straight thru, and just do better for myself in general. 

My motivation is my daughter. Ever since I’ve been exercising, I’ve been so energetic and so much more present. I’ve truly been a better mom. What’s your motivation?
