Get Running Forums

Just finished run 2 of week 7. The runs are getting easier to accomplish. However, the early mornings are the premium running times I've decided. I run on a golf course and it's lovely. There a fewer people and the air is crisp. The time literally flies. My run times are still slow, averaging about ...

I stand all day as well. Make sure you sit often throughout the day and stretch your feet and ankles. I teach school so I can't choose when I sit per se but I do try to lift my feet and sit every hour for a few minutes. Let us all know how you're doing! Sheri

I was thrilled to get through my 20 minute run. In my head I'm running at Olympic speeds, truly I'm slogging along! I think we all have fantastic runs and days where we barely manage. Mind the heat, I've found the cooler it is the easier it is to run. You are a success simply by doing the runs at al...

I've had several mini cramps but the tend to work themselves out as I run. Great job on beginning the running! I love this app, the people here seem like extended ...

I can't believe I'm here! I live in the country and it was a cool morning so I decided to try to run as long as I could, even if Fiona, the voice, said stop. I ran about 7 minutes longer than I have before, was still running when cool down was finished. My breathing was fine but my legs finally said...

Welcome! I know I've felt the shin splint pain and I just run through that. You might try stretching a bit before you run. As far as the knee pain, I began to feel it too. I bought an over the counter glucosamine 2000 mg per tablet and I take 2 each morning. It took a few days to work but I haven't ...

I've only lost a few pounds, but I'm 49 and have metabolism of a sloth! But- I have lost a complete dress size, maybe a tad more because my body is more toned. I've list almost an inch off my upper arms and more than that on my upper legs. I have more energy too. As for food, I eat small meals usual...

We are amazing!!!!!

Just finished week 6 today. The 25 minutes was a bit tough but I sure feel good now! Im with you, it's not all easy but it's certainly worth ever ounce if sweat! I haven't list a ton of weight, but I've dropped a size and I'm more toned. I feel great as well! This is an amazing app!!
