Did W8D2 last night on the treadmill. Yuck. Have I mentioned how much I hate the treadmill? I hope the weather gets a little better soon because I don't know how much longer I can handle that treadmill running.

W9D2 done - I'm so inconsistent. Some days I can run 30 minutes no problem, and some days I'm struggling at 20. Oh well - I remember when I was struggling at 90 seconds - so I guess everything is good

Good job everyone!

Hello Everyone!

Wk9D2 done! I am running a 5k in 42 minutes. A bit slower than I wanted, but I know my time will improve as I continue to run. Hubby and I signed up for the 10k on Turkey Day(no 5k in the area at all!). A little scared, just because it's 6 miles instead of 3-but I know I can do a 5k now. I couldn't do that 9 weeks ago! I know I'll finish thats all that matters. I love this website! I am so glad to have found it! It has seriously changed my life for the better!

Good Luck to everyone on their races!!!!!

Natalie

w9d3 done, woot!

so where do we go from here? what will your training/weekly runs look like in the next 9 weeks ... 6 months?

also - what do you do on your days off? when do you do strength training (if you do any)?
