How is everyone going? I havent been for a run for almost 2 weeks. have a cold that went to a chest infection. Hopefully I can get back into it next week, am really missing it. Hope you are all finding time to exercise through the busy and challenging time of year.
Week 6 now and still going. Not bad for someone of my size. ready to tackle the 25min non stop run by this time next week.
I'm planning on taking my ipod with me and doing segments of the c25k on my 15km run next weekend. I won't be able to run the entire 15 kms, but I'm hoping to start off being able to do 25-30mins with a 10min walk break... then the same, then maybe slightly less with a longer walking break.... Not sure what exactly I'll do but I'm planning on getting it done in well under 3 hours.
Hi ladies,
I am tentavely popping my head in to say I am starting the c25k today....I have been meaning to do it for a long time but have been terribly lazy! Today, I pull my finger out!! I started it a few years ago, after I had DS1 and got to week 3, but I got a sore knee, then life got in the way, and then I fell pg with #3. So I am here again! I am extremely unfit, overweight and just horribly out of shape in general! I am hoping this will help me get into gear to lose weight and get me back!
Wish me luck, lol!
Good luck hun!!!! I know I posted a few weeks ago saying I was starting again - FAIL! BUT I did go tonight and am determined to do exercise every day between now and our family trip away in early Jan (other than Xmas but even then will go for a walk!) Tonight I did Week 3 day 1 but I ran through most of my walks!! So happy with myself, felt so good - I walked the 5 mins warm up and cool down and one 3 min walk and one 90 second walk and ran the rest of it! Feeling gooooood!! I did 3.33kms in just under 30 mins with ave pace of 8.15min/km. Funny, I went to yoga last night and there was hardly anyone there and she goes - now is the time people should be going, not stopping because it's so busy, so true I really need it when it's crazy like it is now.
Wow, Tan, that's great hun, well done!! I am trying to go every day, at least just for a walk. I nearly died doing the c25k wK1d1, lol! I.AM.SOOOO.UNFIT! I'm thinking I might need to do it over 2 wks, or have a few extra rest days in between or something. I am sore in places I forgot existed, lol. All for a good cause though. I do love the feeling afterwards of feeling like you've accomplished something. I will get there!
Hun i was like that when I started and although I haven't been regularly doing much, I have been doing my dvds and my yoga so it has all added up I think! Stick at it, you will be so surprised at what you can do - when I did my first 3 min run I couldn't believe i did it and how good I felt!! Remember, no matter how fast you are going, you are lapping everyone on the couch!! oxox
Hi everyone! Just wondering if anyone has done the bridge 2 10kms (the next running program up?).
I completed my 15km fun run mid December and whilst my previous longest continuous run was 20 mins, I managed to run 6.5kms in 55mins (slow... but for me -AWESOME!!). I'm thinking that I need to extend myself now, even though I didn't technically make the 9 weeks.... although I may start again back at the 20min run intervals as I've had a couple of weeks off running.
Awesome Niadella!!!! that is great!! I am aiming to do a Fun Run too once I can run 5 kms!!!!
How are you going Sopdet??
I am starting Week 5 today! Wooot! Ran again while on holidays and found that I could have run through my walks again which I was surprised about but am really happy that my fitness seems to be up there, I am also finding that I recover quickly once I start walking! I ran on a tready the other day - weird I found it harder than on ground and then nearly fell in a heap with jelly legs once I got off, decidedly less strain on my knees though so I guess it's good for a change up.
Ok off to deal with the kids! Have a good Sunday all!
