I've decided to stop doing C25K, as it's just not working well for me right now. It's too hard on my legs, and I don't enjoy it at all. I was so happy to be back to my walking on the treadmill today -- and I burned way more calories that way without the excess strain on my body.

chickadee32: I also had to give up running. For me, it was due to iliotibial band syndrome. I hoped it might go away when I lost the weight, but it hasn't happened yet. Fortunately, there are wonderful ways to get in shape that don't involve running! In some ways, I think I've been more open to variety and, therefore, reduced my incidence of overuse injuries, by being forced to look to other activities.

gardenerjoy: Ouch! I hadn't heard of that condition, but read up on it a little and it sounds very painful. I'm sorry that it has persisted despite the weight loss... is it a constant problem for you, or only when you do specific activities? I keep thinking that I should do some other cardio activities besides the treadmill, but haven't gotten around to any others yet. The rowing maching has been looking kind of appealing though... I may have to give it a try one day soon. Boxing also seems like it would kind of fun

How is everyone doing on your March goals? Let me know if you meet them so I can put it in the summary post. I'll start an April thread now because I may be too busy tomorrow (DH's birthday).

chickadee32: The ITBS isn't a constant problem, fortunately. It flares up sometimes usually in response to an activity like running, but sometimes sitting too long in the wrong position will do it, too. Congrats on passing your exam!

I SO wanted to meet my exercise goal this month, but I fell one day short. I was just exhausted yesterday, and regardless didn't leave work early enough to get to the gym before it closed at 11pm. I'm disappointed with myself, but oh well. Looking forward to April.
