Personally - I re-did the days I had trouble with. I'd play different music and take a different route. Don't stop though. The important part of all of this is that you are going out and doing something with a set goal. Others may echo my sentiments here....week 5 day 3 will look scary but I actually feel that the first 3 weeks are the toughest especially if you are new to doing this. At the end of week 1 I wasn't sure I was going to make it through. May last time out, I ran a 5K distance. You can do it.

Thx! Beer in hand now!

Chinebo DONT focus on the time it takes to compete an interval. Just keep moving. I thought week three was gonna kill me too but I'm proud to say I ran a 5k distance tonight. It's the gains you make in week 3,4,5 that will pay dividends in week 7,8. I'm the laziest person I know when it comes to exercise so if I can do this....you can too!

5K in 32:57. Suck it "old self"!!!!!! Probably could have went another 5 minutes!

Totally! Had a victory dinner of a wonton soup and beer for dinner when I finished....lol! I'm down 36 pounds from when I started. Feeling much different.

28 minutes, 4.6 Km. I'm getting close to ditching the time interval and just going for distance. I actually felt I could have kept going another few minutes tonight but didn't want to overdo it.

I used a thinsolate glove. Poor mans thermal case but it worked. Lol.

I'll point out they are not ear buds but the are amazing.

Motorola s530 Bluetooth wireless headphones. 34 bucks on Amazon. Best I've ever used for anything!

Settled in on a jawbone up24. Satisfied so far. It's comfortable and doesn't get in the way and seems to just work. I've played around with the IFTTT app and have a few custom reminders and actions paired up. Pretty interesting stuff.

Thanks for the info.

tried to do week 7 day 1 last night. Unfortunately my iPhone succumbed to the cold (it was 12 outside) and shut itself down before I could finish. I lost tracking ability and stopped around 21 minutes. Anyone know of a thermal case for an iPhone? Doesn't need headphone holes as I use wireless headphones. Otherwise I'm gonna stick it in a thinsolate glove and cram it in my pocket!!!

Good info. I still have some research to do but will reply back here with my final choice.

who has/uses what, and what are your impressions? I'm looking at buying one of these primarily as a sleep tracker for my apnea. What are your thoughts on these devices?
