Just finished my 3rd day today as well. Looking forward to week 2. I also hope to do more than 3 days/week next week.

Good luck to everyone!

Yay, I did a modified Week 1, Day 1 today, no knee pain :D.
I was just counting, counted 15 for jogging, 45 for walking, I think that's really about 30-45 seconds jogging, 1.5-2min for walking. Anyway, it was 2 miles in roughly 31 minutes, including warmup/cooldown. Got in 7 cycles of the jog/walk sets. Got to see if I can get the podcast, I think my timing may be way off. But I'm excited that I could jog again.

Did Week 1, Day 1 yesterday, will do Day 2 tomorrow - just walking today, 2 miles, ~31 minutes, including warmup/cooldown. Going well :D I'm still so excited! I'm surprised how good it feels to be out on the road before sunrise.

Hello, I know I'm a little late on this, but I just started Day One, holy crap I didn't think I was going to make it, but I feel so good now that I did it! Can't wait til tomorrow :)

I just finished week 1 yesterday. I don't know what was up, but it really done me in! I only did three of my jogs at 4 on the treadmill. It was really hard, but I finished. Kinda scared to start week 2, but I guess I will do that Wed.

Hopefully I'm not the only one left one week one, because I just finished my second day...I hope I'm feeling up to it tomorrow, I'm already feeling sore today because my body is a little shocked lol. If I feel like I need a rest day tomorrow maybe I'll just do some weights and ab work, I'll check back in, if there's anyone else out there :)

i'm technically still in week 1 i have one more workout. then off to week two. i was just posting in the other thread with the other girls.

JulieJ08 08-14-2008 12:42 PM

I just kept forgetting to post yesterday! I did W1D2, finally with the podcast, so the timing and number of intervals was finally right. Gonna have to put together better music ;) Went well, hard work, but good. Hope tomorrow is good too! I'd like to have a solid week 1 and 2 under my belt before I go on vacation because I won't be able to do it then - I'll take lots of walks, but the elevation is 7850 feet, so uh ... probably no running :o.

soure1sl 08-15-2008 12:37 AM

Just finished Day 3 of Week 1! I can't believe how much more endurance I seemed to have just after a couple days of running! I went further and I caught my breath a lot faster! I think I'm going to 'try' to do Day 4 tomorrow before work if I'm not too sore !

JulieJ08 08-15-2008 10:00 AM

Just finished W1D3 too! It is getting better, but still very hard! I do plan to go ahead and try to start week 2 on Monday.
