Week 1 consisted of 3 runs; each run has a 5 minute warm up & cool down, with intervals of 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking, keeping the heart rate up, but still exercising at a comfortable level.
After run #1, I was certainly sweating like a mad woman and my face really turned bright red, in fact I think some people at the gym were giving me funny looks, of course I didn't realize how red I was until I went to the locker room and saw my "red as a tomato face"! But I pushed on through the week and finished Week 1. I feel great about the program and start Week 2 tomorrow.

awesome! you are totally motivating me to try the program. do you have a 5k in mind that you are going to run? a couple friends and i are talking about doing one but we don't know which.
Wow. I am very impressed and interested to hear more about the podcasts. I have never been a runner but would like to try and it sounds like great encouragement if you can be motivated by someone else while doing it. Go, LW go!
