ok today 5.12 kilos on the treadmill. thats great that you moved up to running that quickly. I cant seem to stay running. I can only run for three minute intervals and I cant go on longer than that. I get tired really quickly and feel like my legs are gonna fall off.

Hi everyone!

Got back Sunday from a 7 day caribbean cruise. Yes, I ran during the 7 days! To the tune of over 7 hours of running. I think it was around 20 miles, but not sure. Most on the dreadmill, but 4 miles on the jogging track of the ship too. We had a super time and can't wait until our next cruise in September!

Tuesday, 5/12: 10 mile run today. Got out there early before it was so dang hot!

Hey im ecstatic!!!! I just ran 20 minutes total out of my 40 minutes!!!!

I didnt think I could run for more than what I was doing but i read a thread on another forum which encouraged me so I thought I would push myself. I used to run in three minute intervals for a total of 12 minutes. But I suprised myself and ran at the first interval for 8 minutes. The second interval for 6 minutes. The third inteval for 4 minutes and the last interval for 2 minutes!!!! But i wasnt to thrilled at the end result I thought it would amount to more in distance. It came out to only 5.30 kilos as opposed to my usual 5.11 kilos.

But Im so proud of myself.

Welcome back Betty. Looks like a nice cruise.
And whereami - boy great progress. But don't push too hard. Your legs adjust slower than your lungs and you have to make sure they are not pushed too hard.
I had a 6 K run again last night. I usually run in the morning but it was cold and icy. What is going on with the weather around here?
Happy running everyone.
