Hi. Well I finally was able to finish the week 1 workout. It took me 4 tries to get it. I weigh 300 pounds so its a bit hard. A couple years ago I finish this program, but now i gained alot of weight and grew out of shape. 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.

So I thought an update was due. I fought through the demotivation and ran anyway. I took all the advice and repeated Day 1 over and over, allowing myself to walk during most of the day's 8 runs. And when I did walk through a one-minute jog, I chose to see it not as a failure but as part of the process. Each jog was a success, whether or not I could do many of them. My first Day 1: Barely survived 3 of 8 runs. Nearly three weeks later: For the first time I actually jogged for all 8 one-minute runs of the Day 1 session. It was messy. I was out of breath. But I did it. Happy running to all y'all.
