What does claire say at the end of Week 7 run 3?

Don't get me wrong I am able to run sustained 25 min, but I am finding the street runs difficult. Challenges like elevation changes, switching from str...

Re: Sticky: Introductions!

Previously I've been doing the elliptical machine 25-40min 4-5x per week so I have some good cardio background. Prior to finding the app, I began running in small spurts, about 2 4 ...
