Snowshoe racing today - I have been on snowshoes before but never snow running with actual race snowshoes. It was a blast and once I figured out that my pace and distance wouldn't be what it would be on snow with yak trax I settled into the rhythm and just had fun. Tonight I finished off with P90X Back and Biceps. More snowshoe running tomorrow - I will take them on some trails and try them out there.

Bike commute to and from work.1 hour of spinning yesterday. Ran 4 miles on Tuesday, 6 miles on Monday, Sunday I swam about 1/2 mile open water, last Saturday I ran 10 miles.
All goes well I'll run 12 tomorrow. That's assuming my IT band behaves. I pissed it off running 4 miles of trails earlier this week..

@City Slicker your description of running was fantastic! I get lactic acid build up in my muscles too, but I'm sure it nothing like what a runner would have.

Starting upper body and back weight training on Monday and very eager for it. Had shots yesterday and they took 7 vials of blood so I did not exercise. Today swimming against the current then playing in the pool with the kids, and I'm ready for a scotch. ;)

Well, I was gone because I wanted to do power walking without this forums' help. Just a test I can do it or not. I have done it.

Progress from last Friday:
2.7 km - Friday
2.5 km - Saturday
3.2 km - Sunday
1.9 km - Monday
1.6 km - Tuesday
2.6 km - Wednesday

I am so tired, I know I have walked more than 6+ days in row. I will have to find out when the last time I took rest.

Thursday - Saturday Rest.

Tomorrow I will be back. I am happy to say I have achieved 80% goal. :D

Edit: :oops: I have walked 15 days in row instead of walking 6 days. I have been taking rest from Wednesday, but still feeling emotionally spent. I hope to feel some freshness tomorrow.

@TheBubzilla Hope you are recovering well from foot injury.

I loved all answers for what it feels like to run.

@Glitterkitty Warm Welcome To Exercise Club! :)

2.6km at double the speed.....so my hrly km average is now 10.3kmph.

Excuse me while I go collapse in the shower!
Very pleased though, my body doesn't seem to read elevated heart rate and breathing as being triggered anymore, so I'm feeling safer to push myself a bit more. :D

12 miles

I'm ready for a scotch

lol, me too - in fact I barely drink but a dram of a good, single malt scotch is something for which I make an exception!!

Happy power walk on beach yesterday, 2200 steps. Looking into PX90 that many here have mentioned. Today, mild stretch and short walk. Getting out of house is easier today. Thanks for sharing. This thread helped motivate me from stretching while bed ridden to 5 minute walks to power walking for 20 minutes.

Stickin swith my spring 2015 goal. Join a yoga class and be up to 4000 steps. P90x goal by 2016 seems more realistic.

I am happy to report that I have achieved the goal today with some freshness in mind. :joyful:

I never thought I would achieve in time, but I have done it now. It feels good. I know my distance will fluctuate here and there little bit, but I am not worried. It took 2 months to achieve it, at first I thought it was too long, but now my mindset has changed and distance doesn't matter for me. Satisfaction and staying active physically matters for me.

3.2 km power walking today.
