whosyadaddy 0 Posted February 26, 2008 yes bigbaby! def run for endurance!!!! Better to run at 4.0 for 30 mins than 8.0 for 15 mins!! I agree. Grown & Sexy! im dying to see your picture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigbaby 4 Posted February 27, 2008 thanks...I was starting to ask myself if endurance was just a lie that I was telling myself to keep from running faster. However after starting week 3 today--I can't run any faster--the 3 minutes almost killed me. Extra chewing gum and a lady running across from me at the gym were my saving grace. I looked at her and kept the pace...I just imagined that I was racing her!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Texgirly 0 Posted February 27, 2008 Well, Feb has been crazy for me. I have basically been sick since the 8th. click below for my funny take on the whole thing. Mortals in Training: You can't make this stuff up! I am hoping to get back on the horse later this week, but like Mindy said to me - I am going to take it slow. I basically will be back at week 1 when it happens. And I have my surgery next week. So - walking is really where I will be for a while. But all of you are so encouraging! I love keep track of each other. See you around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wombat712 2 Posted February 28, 2008 Yea Tex!!! {{hugs}} for you Ran day 2 of week 5 today - kicked my booty. I still did my last minute sprint but I really didn't think I had it in me. I was reaching to slow it down just as the time ran out so I just made it. :blushing: YIKES - day 3 is 20min!!!! OMG!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wombat712 2 Posted February 28, 2008 Went to the gym did 30min run and 45min spin class anyway. You did BOTH?!?!?! Good Lord!!!!! Oooooh, I'm jealous - running outside in FL ... sounds Heavenly :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whosyadaddy 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Lol Wombat! Yeah i did both at a slow rate to keep the throbing pain down in my head. Actually when i workout gently it helps get rid of it but when i go hard it makes it worse. Weird! I cant wait to get out of the 5f weather. Your jealous of Florida im jealous of your 143.8 pounds! Dont ever ever think an Arbys chicken salad sandwich is healthy! I looked this morning and found its over 700 cals! I about feel off my chair. THats higher than a Big Mac or a Whopper with Cheese! No hot tub today though :thumbup: that makes my head worse too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luluc 6 Posted February 28, 2008 Went to the gym did 30min run and 45min spin class anyway. WE should get C25K t shirts made for when you fininsh it! **SUPERSTAR** - lol, Love the idea of Tshirts:) Wombat 143.8!!!!! that is fantastic - really it is...I'm "willing" the scale to get in the 150's but the scale is just plain evil! Florida sounds wonderful - this seems like a long TX winter (albeit not like in WI) :thumbup:...Going skiing while your in sun Whosya, don't plan on running just ski & hot tub - .. Side note: On our ski trip last yr, I only did one run - was outta shape, outta breath, and miserable. I plan on shredding it up this yr.. Lu~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whosyadaddy 0 Posted February 28, 2008 Yeah i really should take up some skiing next year. I used to live next to a ski slope when i lived in England. There is so much freaking snow here i should def take it up. Alot of ppl Snow Mobile but it just doesnt appeal to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
