Got it for my Kindle like it so far!!! TY

Thank you LisaT678, Butterbean, and deedadumble. Your advice is incredible!!! I am reading up on Chi running and am about to order Slow Burn. Thanks for the suggestions. It turns out I was getting sick which is why I was struggling... Deedadumble I am 3 months out so still heavy on proteins and I try to have a cheese stick about an hour before.. Too close to workout and I get horrible stomach cramps when I run.. What kind of fuel do you do before a run??

Had to have a honest moment with myself today and will be going back to week 6 and redoing the last few weeks of the program. Trying to run a full 30 min every "run day" now that I graduated is quickly zapping my moral, and I feel like I need to make this a program I can stay on. I am excited I was able to make it to the full 30... But am really struggling to stay at that level. Think backing up and working my way back to this point will help me get excited again, with some attainable wins... and at the same time continue to prep my body for the next step... Any of you vets ever do something like that??? Does it help???

Life got in the way of me finishing week 8 last Friday so I did it today!!! I finished the program and ran for 30 minutes straight!!! I was no where near 5k at the end but that will come. I'm signed up for a race in March... I have until then to increase my speed/ distance. Where's my running buddy? Jumping back in? Did you finish?

Had that issue the first time I tried to run a few years back... Getting fitted for the right shoe and insert made a huge difference for me. If you have a place that can check that for you, and you can afford it, it will really help out.

Sounds like things are getting pretty rough.. Did your doctor clear you to keep running??? Tag

LisaT678. If it weren't for you, I don't know if I would have made my run on Friday!!! Really was not feeling it. That ended up being an important lesson for me... Despite feeling so weak and not really into it, I was still able to complete my run... Next run tomorrow... Are you feeling better???
