I am still going and going strong. I have had nagging injuries to my knee, leg, foot, etc. but they have not stopped me from getting in my hour each and every day.
The weather has been nicer so I have mapped out a few 5 and 6 mile runs. This is much better than 95 or 114 times around the track around the gym at the YMCA-that gets monotonous!
For 5 or 6 miles I am maintaining 7:30-7:45 minute miles. I know I probably could do more with a partner or pushed. I am getting ready to take my show on the road-to a race hopefully soon. It is exciting to run 6 miles in just over what my first 4 mile run was last summer.
Still I have not missed a day. I also have the incline all the way up-no holding on- 4 MPH walk on the treadmill for 60 minutes which burns exactly 1120 calories once or maybe twice a week. And I have the recumbent bike once or twice a week too as a running alternative on the max to burn what says 800 calories (some bikes differ and to be honest I sweat like more than that) in 60 minutes.
I eat like I used to minus the 3 slices of pizza at a time and mozz sticks 2x a week! No weight gain at all. Keeping it off which is as hard as losing it was!
