OK, here I go.....

Post by Dstemmerich »

Hello everyone! About to head out the door on my first run. I have tried to run in the past but failed after a weeks or so. I'm hoping this app will make a difference and keep me motivated. I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. I want to be in the best shape of my life! So . . . Here I go!!

Good luck! I'm in week 5, and allthough each workout is hard the progress so far is unbelievable. The sense of achievment is a great feeling.

Day 1 of week 1 done! I feel great. An excellent way to get back into running after a 30 year break

thanks, great job to you as well. W1D2 was tough but worth it. Tomorrow I tackle W1D3 and I am really looking forward to see how it goes!

W2d1 done! I won't lie, it was tough extending the runs by 30 seconds. I know that sounds silly to runners, but it was tough! But I got through it!!

W2d2 done! Running in the fog at night is probably asking for an injury and it made breathing a bit harder but it was kinda cool! All and all I feel spectacular!
