I did W2W2 yesterday. I fixed my treadmill so there is no longer an incline and it made the run much easer! I swear that I ran more on W1 then W2. On W2 you only run 4 times in the 20 minutes.

I will do W2W3 on Sunday. Today I’ll be hiking all day.

I have to be honest, I’m worried about Tuesday and starting W3!

Alright did W2W1, and boy was it harder! I think part of it is because my new treadmill is on an incline so I need to find a way to fix that. But getting to 90 seconds is really hard! I'm fine up to 60, but after that it gets really hard. I did walk for 40 more min after I finished the program. I hope that its easer on Friday!

Whooo hoo! I finished W1 yesterday! I also walked for an additional 10 minutes. I plan to do W2W1, 2, and 3 on Weds, Friday, and Sunday.

I had a hard time with the last workout, I think its because I had 3 days in between. I'm hoping W2 is not going to kill me!

I think I forgot to post that I did W1D2 on Wednesday. I ran at 6mph this time, and that was harder.

Great news is that I got a treadmill for my living room! I‘m just waiting to see if hubby and I can carry it up stairs and I will do W1D3 today or tomorrow. I did a hard hike yesterday so my legs are really tired.

I’m going to be doing day 2 of week 1 today.

How many of you are using a treadmill? I would LOVE to run outside, but sorry to say the neighborhood I live in went down with the economy. It’s just not safe to leave our condo community!

Whoo hoo. Did day one today! Not as hard as I thought it would be. I did it on the treadmill. I walked at 3pmh and jogged at 5mph. I'm doing a detox right now so my energy is really low, today was the first time I've had the energy since starting.

It sure was great though. I know I could have kept going for another 10 min, but I wanted to get some weight lifting in.

Hi Everyone! It’s so great to have so many of you doing this program with me! Whooo hoo! I plan to do my first on one Monday or Tuesday. It just depends on how my energy is. (I’m doing a colon cleanse and detox eating only fresh fruit and veggies, beans and nuts) So I never know how my energy will be. I’m going to go on a long walk today with my hubby because I miss my workouts! Make sure to write about how your Day #1 goes!

I'm Looking for Some Like Minded Workout Buddies!

I like to stay active, eat healthy and get outside. I'm looking for other women that like to hike and go for walks. I'm really into eating healthy and currently doing a colon cleanse. I figure you only have one body, so why not take care of it! I have lost 26 pounds through diet and exercise and have another 14 to go!

Oh but I'm defiantly not a tree hugger! I'm a girly girl and love fashion!

I plan to start the Couch 2 5k program so I can start training for my first ½ marathon and would love to have someone train with me! I'm not even close to being a runner as an injury has always prevented me. But I am determined to run a ½ marathon by September!

What I am looking for in a partner is someone that like me! I don't have children, I'm in my 20s (30s is fine too!), female, don't work during the day time hours, show up, show up on time, wont flake out, determined, accountable, goal driven, bubbly, fun to be around, and have a positive attitude!

It's very important that I find the above qualities in my buddie/s because I have lost so many buddies in the past due to their lack of motivation. I understand that the scale goes up and down, that some times injuries happen, that life does get in the way. But I have goals and I will achieve them!

If you SERIOUSLY interested please e-mail me and tell me about yourself. Please be able to commit to at least 2 months, 2-3 times per week.

Any thanks for reading!

P.S. Looking to meet up M-F between 10am and 4pm.
