There’s a race around here called Get Your Rear In Gear…same idea!! Good for you following through though.

I too have been battling some nagging pain. Running has been a real roller coaster. Some days are great and others aren’t. I wish you well on your plan whatever you call it.

“With my track record of pushing too hard, it’s important I do this right.”

“And then I’ll get on the spin bike for a while because this thirty minutes on it’s own thing doesn’t really feel like enough for me.”

Yeah. I see how that works.

We are in completely different worlds in a sense as I need to formulate a “lazy” plan!! (Okay, not exactly but… something like that) I need to find time to do the little things – like finishing a holiday present etc. *sigh*

So I will send energetic and “go get’em” thoughts your way… okay?!

I don’t have a marathon to precede my (as yet unstarted) avoid laziness plan, so I think I will try to steal some of your motivation. Mine seems to be at an alltime low right now. I’m scaring myself here.

Thanks for the motivation. Back at it tomorrow. Pinky swear!

Good for you. Keep up the great work and I think walk breaks are brilliant.

I just saw this on Pat’s Running Blog, http://www.eatthatfrogmovie.com, and thought it was very cute. Seriously though, I would love to live in a world where eating a frog is the worst thing that can happen to me!

Between backofpack and me you have at least 2 “virtual running grandmas” to give you advice. Lucky you! My only input is to avoid the temptation to do more. Stick with 30 minutes for the whole 21 days, and break it up in different ways, like you are doing. I had about 4 or 5 good runs after my comeback, so I kept doing a little more each workout, and now I’m hurting and having to cut back. Backofpack is wise. I just have an impressive resume of mistakes to relate
