Healthylife4me 18 Report post Posted January 18, 2015 I got him out jogging today and he did great! He has longer legs than me, so longer stride which meant a faster pace for me too!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRoseWithin~Shannon 98 Report post Posted January 18, 2015 Healthy! How exciting! Please share with him that I so admire his courage in getting out there (running and skiing) in spite of and because of his nervousness What a blessing for both of you - connection, family, health - life-affirming values come to mind. Smiling! 1 Healthylife4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Healthylife4me 18 Report post Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks Rosewithin! Last week someone asked me if my kids ran with me. When I said no, they were surprised I had not asked them to. So when my husband I got back from the run, I told to my 9 yr. old son that if dad and I can run. He could too. He looked at me like a deer caught in the headlights! Lol I guess I'll have to work on the kids a bit harder!! Lol that would be awesome to run as a family!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KellyAnn 281 Report post Posted January 20, 2015 Hey H4ME!, Thats awesome.. You are so lucky that your hubby will run with you. Mine never has. BUTTTTTTT, heis walking with me now, so we go about 6x around our track 1/4 mile around once, and then he goes in to work and then I do the app. I do love it, as at least he going with me. Proud of you all. 1 Healthylife4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Healthylife4me 18 Report post Posted January 21, 2015 Today was w2d2 for hubby. He is pretty sore, but he went with me anyway. He has shin splints. Especially on the right leg. Funny thing is he hated the walking portion of the program. He said it didn't hurt when he was running, but very painful when walking. I told him we'll (meaning I'm going to go alone, lol) rest up for an extra day or 2 until his shins feel better. Then we'll try again. that's what I love most about this program, no stress. Take it as our bodies handle it. That and everyone's support. This place rocks!! 1 Azatol reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrashLN 14 Report post Posted January 21, 2015 I've dealt with shin splints a lot too. Immediately following his next run, have him put ice packs on his shins. Great job! 2 TheRoseWithin~Shannon and Healthylife4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KellyAnn 281 Report post Posted January 21, 2015 Uuugh. Hate those shin splints. Does he run too fast at the start when it says run???? I had those years ago and slowed down at the start and that helped. Pretty cool he is going with you. I love it. I love how everyone here helps each other on their journeys. So encouraging. Hugs to you all and keep at it. 1 Healthylife4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
