I am new at this board, so pls be patient with me. I have had a back and a knee injury, so can not do a lot. I walked two miles this morning and hope to get in a bit more.
Thanks for letting me post. I am hoping this board will encourage me.

i`m new too, and also hoping this board will help out. i`ve been reading here for a few days and people seem super knowledgeable, though it`s nice to see there are some newbies too :)
i did week 1 workout 1 of couch to 5k on the treadmill (jog 5mph, walk 3.3-3.5mph, 285cals). no weights yet because i`ve been told not to for at least 1 month post-op.

Hey Ruby, glad to have you. On this board you never have to feel badly about what you can or cannot do. This is a pretty supportive community, and all we try to do is encourage people to do what they are able. We applaud the successes and are there for support when things don't go well.
You did great today!
I'm heading out to a spin class and am going to force myself into doing my upper body weights.

Welcome Ruby & Nicole. This is a great place to come for motivation and information. We all started out as newbies!
This morning, I did 40 minutes on the treadmill, including 12 minutes at a slow jog. I followed that up with lower body strength training. Tomorrow will be spent cleaning house - that should be a good six-hour job.

Welcome, I did an hour training session with my trainer, she had me do some running drills outside (about 2 miles) then we did some upper body strength training and some good stretching and ab work. I had a busy errand filled afternoon with lots of walking and lifting involved.

Welcome to all the newbies! It's awesome to see more joining the fold.
Today I ran 9 miles on the treadmill and averaged 6.2MPH
I don't want to over do it because I want to post a really good time on my 10K Turkey Trot on Thursday. (I am hoping to break the 52 minute threshold)). I have an 18 mile run scheduled for Saturday morning with some friends, the following week will be 20-22 mile Long Run, then I will be ready the following week for the 26.2 mile Dallas Marathon.
If I don't get a chance to post tomorrow, HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! I will surely post my race results once I get them. Take care.....
