It worked and I'm deliriously happy!
I stumbled across Cathe last October when I was looking for challenging workouts to help me maintain my fitness level over winter when I can't jog. My goal, in addition to maintaining my fitness level, was also to keep those 10 lbs of winter weight from packing on. It finally warmed up enough for me to hit the road on Friday! I've only been jogging for a few years (started it when I got bored with my run-of-the-mill aerobics tapes) so every spring I'd have to start back in a walk/jog routine and build up to 30 mins of jogging. Friday I went out and jogged 3 miles in 30 minutes (I know I'm slow!x( I'm working on it!) with absolutely no problems, no cramps, no lung pain, and without any DOMS! And when it rains or is too cold, I have great indoor workouts to fall back on!!! Thank you Cathe for helping me reach my goals!
I'm so pleased...and I can't think of a person in my world who really wants to hear this news! :-( BTW - I stole the subject line from my dd. She has a great group of friends that call this out whenever they do anything slightly amazing and feel like bragging about it. I hope they are able to keep this up because I don't think my adult female friends would give a hoot(!) about this accomplishment.
