    Alpha Omega Check-In *AUGUST*

    Iirs, I forgot to mention in my first post how super excited I am most of all that CLX came with a copy of Turbo Jam's Fat Blaster!!! I think it was on the same DVD as Burn Intervals or Burn it Off? I've been thinking of getting that workout, now I don't have too! I just love Turbo Jam!! :D

    Alpha Omega Check-In *AUGUST*

    “You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in your word.” (Psalm 119:114) Jen, I completely understand how you feel about losing 2 friends. I broke ties with one of my girlfriends almost 2 years ago. It was the right thing to do because we were just on completely different...

    Alpha Omega Check-In - JULY 2009

    I did get my run in afterall, hooray! :) After that I stretched with Slim & Limber. It was hot and sticky from the rain, but I'm glad I got my run in before it starts to pour again. I can't believe tomorrow is 8/1! I guess we will start a new thread tomorrow? This month went by fast...

    I managed to get my run in afterall! :D I usually go to the park but decided to run by my house, just in case it started (inevitably) raining again. It wasn't the greatest run mentally because: 1) People use my road as a race track (like doing 75 in a 40!! No joke) :mad: 2) There are...

    "Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised." (Psalm 31:30) Iris, that sounds like a good idea to take the first part of your 30/30 class for the cardio! I think that will work great with CLX. I'm excited to start too!! I hope I get my...

    Hi Sydney! I didn't know treadmills would stop at 60 minutes! I guess it's because I've never made it to 60 minutes on one!! :p Did you get another workout in yesterday? Hi Sharon! Congrats on Week 1 down with C25K. I know with each passing week I feel so good about myself for getting...

    Hi everyone! Alisha, sounds like I would LOVE to jog where you live!! I just love animals of all kinds, especially cats and dogs though. I had a very nice picture in my head of your run from this morning, good job describing the open fields, valleys, and sun above the fog! How serene...

    “You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14,16) Jen, I saw your post on Ask Cathe. That's nice that she responded to you! I think it's...

    "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." (Matthew 7:21) Hi Cathy! Nope, I've never done STS. I don't even own it. You did a good job describing back off sets, so thanks! :) I have never done...

    Hello runners! Today was my second run from Week 3 of C25K. We (me and my dog) made it through despite the high humidity (88% :eek:)! By the end I was a sweaty mess with frizzy hair, HA! I got home and did a nice, long stretch with Slim Series "Cool it Off". Now I'm relaxing a bit before I...

    Novice runners NEW CHECKIN!!!! (sorry for yelling.)

    Hi Sharon! Welcome to the group! I'm glad you saw my post about the podcasts, they really do make the run more fun! I've had a few attempts at the C25K run too. I started a few months ago with a 12 week C25K program (not the original). I went through a few weeks of it and then found the...

    Novice runners NEW CHECKIN!!!! (sorry for yelling.)

    Hi Marcia! Welcome to the group! I actually try and breath the way Katie (Collinsmom)outlined in her post and I find it does really help to control the breathing. I actually breath in every three steps and exhale every three. Sometimes I breath a bit harder and adjust accordingly. I breath...

    Me again!! :p No other workouts for me today (besides my run). I had a nice afternoon with my grandma. We had lunch together at Panera Bread (my new favorite place to eat!!), then we went grocery shopping. It was a nice afternoon. I had (and still have) tons of stuff to get done before...

    My prior post was pretty long, so I'm posting my workout separate! :p Today was my first run of Week 3. I made it through two 3 minute runs!! I didn't think I could but decided I wasn't going to tell myself that because if I thought that way, then I probably wouldn't make it. I started...

    Novice runners NEW CHECKIN!!!! (sorry for yelling.)

    Hi runners! :) I'm so excited, I just got done with my first run of Week 3! I was nervous about it. It's funny because with the tracks I'm listening to, the guy said "Ok, get ready for your first 90 MINUTE run (!!)" I was like "Um...." ha ha. So I did my first 90 seconds, recovered, and...
