[Anders]

Im taking it easy - 1/2 hour on the treadmill doing 5 minutes run 2 minutes walk, repeating till the 1/2 hour is up. The machine tells me I've burned 330 kcals. I didn't do any running at all before this (not for about 15 years anyway..) I'm trying to work up to being able to run for 1/2 hr at a time without killing myself. I'm able to do this on now I'm on RTM - Itried while on abstinence and completely knackered myself.

hi there
only just seen this thread.
whilst on holiday last week i decided to start running.
i have never really run before - i always said i hated it as my boobs were too big...however a few weeks ago i found out that i actually can run, its not a physical impossibility - and my boobs have shrunk thanks to LL!

anyway, i did 3 x 25 mins runs along the beach front which was excellent - and since being home i decided to do a bit of planning as i want to run 5k. so i have found a 'couch to 5k' plan and am following that over 8 weeks.

i went and got 'fitted' for a proper pair of trainers too - they are sooo comfy!

i also went on a 10k bike ride at the weekend and have started doing my wii personal trainer every other day

and i have decided to enrole in sept at a pilates class

i will be fit!

hi
better day today - walked 12,000 steps and did 25 mins jog/walk

also only eaten about 1200 calories for some reason ( should really be about 1600 )

didn't mean to - overate by about 600 yesterday and just not hungry today, so maybe my body is just correcting itself naturally? - i can but hope, lol!

hi
well ive just done my 10,000 steps - so anything else is a bonus today.
i jogged and powerwalked for an hour this morning - did 56 mins of aerobic steps so my pedometer told me so i was pleased with that.

ive done my first week of my 5k plan - next week i have to do:

Brisk five-minute warmup walk, then do two repetitions of the following:

• Jog 1.5mins then walk 1.5mins
• Jog 3mins then walk 3mins

​

so a total of 18 mins plus 5 min warm up -hmm might try 3 reps of it to make 27 mins
