This is a before

Hers is another

Ok quick update. Esp to Raleigh as i was 32 when i had lap band and 440lbs so i know where your at. I am about 230 now and finished another Duathlon rwo weekends ago. I will try and post a pic.

No dairy because if you run a long way it churns up in your tummy. 5k should be ok though.

Ok the day before you should take a brisk 30 min walk or some really slow running. NO DAIRY the day before if you can avoid it! :tt1: The morning of is all about your reg routine. Ate what your used to eating. Try and get a balance of carb/protein. You shouldnt need more than 150-250 cals. Eat at least 1 hour before your 5k! Drink a good amount of water way before too.

Hi! I just wanted to say thank you to all my well wishers for my Half Marathon today!! Some of you have known me from the start. Last year i did the my FIRST 5k..the oshkosh 5k and 1 year on from that today i did the OshKosh 1/2 Marathon! I started it all with the Couch to 5k! I could bearly run for 1 min without dieing at first! so hang in there. I fininshed in 2hour and 18 mins. 13.1 miles! It felt awesome too! Last year it snowed but this year we had perfect weather. My pace was just below 10min miles for most of it. Used my nike plus to pace me! Bea and Carol thanks for the kind words!!!!! I REALLY apperciate it!!!!!

Protiens shots and all those super expensive drinks are fine. But let me tell you. Two Glasses of skim milk are just as good!!! Alot of experiance runners say a glass of choclatte milk afer a run is perfect for protein. But i dont want the sugar or cals. Look for frigo light string cheese too. 60 cals tons of protein. CHEAP. Dont be fooled by expensive protein drinks and bars. Real nautral Protein is the best. Chicken, fish, milk. I only use supplements if there is no other choice. I just came in from a 2.5hour run which i can handle pretty well now. I wanted to go 3hrs but i had to go for a buisness dinner. Tips: took my credit card and stopped at gas station for water and a little gatorade.

Congrats to you too!! I got a Half Marthon coming up next weekend so its going to be taper time next week. Im back in California this week, the Las Vegas for work next week. Its crazy. Can you post a pic of the two week challenge?

hey i did my first 5k around 310 pounds. about 45 mins

Ok this might make you laugh So im in California on buisness and just DIEING to cycle. So no one will rent me a bike. its sunny 70f This is REALLY wrong. I bought a crappy walmart bike. Road the CRAP out of it. about 40 miles. Then cleaned it up with clorox wipes and took it back for credit. Am i going to bike hell? I kept all the packing and made it look perfect. BTW: it was a creaky piece of ####
