Running up a tab - Mar 3 to 9

[Jo-n-NY]

First, Thank you Emily for your PM. You gave me a great guide to go by especially the speed that you began at. On my train ride home from work I read a lot of the book "The Courage to Start" which I purchased during my lunch hour. I think I am feeling the excitement of having something different to try.

Anyway, I went on the treadmill for 30min last night, run 2 minutes, walk for 2, however the speed of 3.0mph was very slow. I think I will speed it up. I honestly do not think I can run for 2 minutes at a faster speed, but like the books says I will do whatever I can and go from there.

Grog, I like that guide also and will try it on my next workout which will probably be Saturday. May I ask what speed your beginners began at?

Thank you all....it is always fun to look forward to another challenge.
