Guest Ali Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Yesterday I ran my first 5k which is halfway the 10k app I am doing and I feel over the moon... If you ever doubt your capabilty then let me tell you that when I started I was badly gasping for air after the 90 seconds jog in the early stages and sometimes needed to stop. My comfort zone was never beyond 1 minute jogging. Yesterday, i ran 30 minutes non-stop and it was a breeze that I even went ahead and did my weight lifting routine right after. The 30 minutes run felt like an extended warm up session if anything (isn't that just a fancy way of warming up?) While success brought me joy yesterday, I have to say that dedication, persistance, and self motivation brought much more important depth to the achievement, self-respect that is. Success is amazing, but self-respect is priceless. I'm very grateful to the guys behind this app it's a life changer! Thank you! Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tara Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I tried to start week 4 last week and felt for the 1st time it beat me. I'm going to try week 4 again tomorrow. I can't wait till I can run for 30 minutes straight. This inspires me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ali Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Stick with it bubs and Tara, and ur success story is almost guaranteed and it's well worth it. When I made this post I couldn't believe myself running 30mins non-stop, but few days ago I actually did the 10k and finished the app, and yes I still can't believe I jogged for 60 mins non-stop and without gasping. Ps. I fast skipped some of the final weeks' days as I felt I could do it, so just listen to your body if it tells you to repeat a day or two do that and if it tells you to jump and skip a day or two also dont be afraid just do it because you can!

jvincent78 Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 ....listen to your body if it tells you to repeat a day or two do that and if it tells you to jump and skip a day or two also dont be afraid just do it because you can! This is good advice on listening to your body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
