"If I quit now, I will soon be back to where I started. And when I started I was desperately wishing to be where I am now".
Read this today, a great quote and one I'll recall regularly on this journey!

This how we lost Mars prob :
"NASA lost its $125-million Mars Climate Orbiter because spacecraft engineers failed to convert from English to metric measurements when exchanging vital data before the craft was launched, space agency officials said Thursday." http://articles.latimes.com/1999/oct/01/news/mn-17288

Jigi reacted to DebsA in Week 5 day 3 - how did you get through it?
I did day 2 twice then amazingly managed day 3 with only about a 10 second stop after about 5 minutes. Once I did that I was fine for the rest of the way. Can't actually believe I managed it. When I went onto week 6 day 1 today it seemed like a breeze! One thing I have found is that listening to audiobooks helps me better than music. Although you don't get the "pace" (and I run incredibly slowly) I find they make me concentrate more on the story and less on how much my legs are hurting!

1. Slow your pace!
2. Music
3. Start running W5D2 and add "bonus" run to it. Wen your total run time will be +20 min, then you know you can do W5D3
(My W5D2 was 2x8min runs plus 5min bonus ride with pace 5.2)
Good luck, you can do it!

Jigi reacted to admin in The Difference Between Running On A Treadmill And Running On Pavement
http://www.zenlabsfitness.com/difference-running-treadmill-running-pavement/
As you gear up to get started on your running routine, one of the most important things that you might be asking yourself is where to do your runs. While some people have a srong preference of either the treadmill or outside, others may not be so sure.
Is one better than the other? Would you see enhanced results running outdoors compared to on a treadmill? Or perhaps the treadmill is better?
By understanding the differences between the two, you can make a more informed decision on where to do your runs.
