Re: obese runners

How is everyone doing? Ran my 5k in July--it was so great. Stopped running consistently after that and weight loss stopped. Back to running again 5.0 on the treadmill at 0.5 incline. Feels good.

Re: obese runners

Hi everyone! Still going strong. Now that the weather is nice I decided to get off of the treadmill. Yesterday walked (jogged maybe a 1/2 mile) of a 3.3 mile loop around a lake at a local park. It is quite hilly and I felt great. Took me 47 minutes so I was quite happy. Will jog more of it next time...

Re: obese runners

Did the 20 minute run! So happy. I love that the program says now you are a runner! I feel so good. Watching the biggest loser on tv. Weigh in at weight watchers tomorrow. Thanks for the support everyone!

Re: obese runners

Hi everyone. Just an update. I have been doing well with Weight Watchers, down 5 pounds. I have a mental block with week 5, day 3 the twenty minute run. I have not even attempted it!

Re: obese runners

How is everyone doing? I am on Week 5 and I am actually finding it easier than week 4 which so far has been the hardest week. I am also on week 3 of Weight watchers. Still planning on jogging the Weight watchers 5k June 6th. Hope everyone is staying healthy and motivated.

Re: Two users ?

my hubby says he wants to run the 5k with me. I am going to be selfish and not let him use the app that i downloaded, it is so motivating to see it all mapped out. Is it possible to download a second get running app (it is definitely worth the cost) so that he can have one separately?
