Azatol

I doin't fuel from carbs. Fat and Protein. Paleo FTW!!

I have no doubt whatsoever <G> Winners spirit.

We all flet that way. TRY IT!! Don't lok at the clock. Just run until told to stop. You can always try again if need be.

Week 8 Day 1. Done deal. 28 Minutes. 2.42 miles. 11:35 pace. I was fighting like crazy on the last half a mile or so, as usual. Interestingly though, I felt more comfortable than ever for the first mile. Kinda gettin my groove. I suspect my pace was under 11 on the first mile and probably 13 on the back side. Deadlift 3x5 @135lbs (Going half weight due to shoulder injury) Bodyweight Lunges: 3x16 Reverse Crunches: 3x10 Superman exercise: 3x15 sec

W8D1 Deadlift 3x5 @135lbs (Going half weight due to shoulder injury) Bodyweight Lunges: 3x16 Reverse Crunches: 3x10 Superman exercise: 3x15 sec Still unable to do pull ups and most barbell exercises. 3 weeks now. Shoulder injuries take forever to heal

Way to go on fighting. If you aren't wearing running shoes fit at a running store, you might want to consider looking into it. I know it's 100-150 bucks but your feet and legs will thank you. I don't know where you are but there's probably a Fleet Feet there. Mine were only 99 bucks there, before socks and I dropped some extra cash on inserts. Still got out under 150 with 4 pair of socks.

Too cool!

Kelly, I don't even know how that happened because I'd not seen that image before LOL. Sure sorry but I put the intended one in its place.

At 11:35 min/mile and today did W8D1 and got 2.42 miles. I'm way short and won't pick up nearly 3/4 of a mile in 2 more minutes. My intention is to use a GPS watch ( Garmin Forerunner 10 was only 99 bucks ). I'll keep running 3 days a week and every 3rd run I'll add 2 minutes until I'm running 3.1. I'll then keep doing that every workout until I decide some day to go for 10k. You're in win mode. You get to run freely! No lady tellin ya what to do. No turning around at a prompt. Run until you feel like running back. Run to cool destinations. Check them out and run back. I'm excited to join you in the winners circle.

Welcome to the fun. You pretty much told my story just there. It's so cool. As we lose weight everything in life becomes easier!! Way-2-go!!

Absoilutely walk on rest days. Low impact cardio is great for you. Hang in there and keep pushing. Baby steps!!

This is not a fail. This is a bigtime score!! You're practically there and you know the recipe to get there. Knock out a few extra minutes on the next run and you're there. The speed will come. At least it better, because it's my plan in a couple weeks <G>

I love the angle on things. Welcome!!

Aren't impossible goals fun Gnik? Piece-O-Cake baby. Just gotta want it bad enough!!

WIN!

It's really best if you take a rest day between every workout. You're actually doing a form of strength training. Each time you run you're tearing muscle tissue and over the next 48 hoiurs it rebuilds stromnger. When you workout 2 consecutive days in a row you negate some of the benefits of the previous day. Rest days are the key to improvement. You're muscles grow on rest day not workout day. mLet your body reast a day between workouts and you will progress quicker and easier.

The program normally says run as slow as you possibly can but distance is irrelevent at this poiint. This is about teaching endurance. You will learn to run 30 minutes non stop. Then the speed and distance will come. Run at a comfortable speed and don't stress when your pace drops as your run time vs walk time increases.

It was only 5 weeks ago for me. Best suggestion is don't watch the time. Dig in and pace yourself and go until told to stop. Watrching the time to your next walk phaze helps your mind defeat you. Let it be surprised.

Welcome and good luck. Sounds like your're a runner and singer <G>

Great workout! Wish I could C&P. It's on my list to learn after the snatch just because it looks so cool LOL
