Today, I did my first run in week 2 today.
I've been making time to do the runs, which is an accomplishment in and of itself. That's often the greatest challenge. I live kind of far from work and friends right now, so I spend a lot of time in my car. That makes it hard to go for a run after work and then go out with friends or to after work events. But I'm making it work.
The first week, I actually only got 2 runs in. When I went to visit my brother and sister-in-law, I ended up doing a lot of walking including a full day of trekking around New York City.
Last week, I did three runs, including one day where I drove home, ran, showered and then went downtown for an event. They felt pretty good, but I'm still getting shin splints. That's frustrating but I'm working through it.
Today, I moved to the week two workout today without realizing it was different. So, when I had to run 90 seconds instead of 60 I was surprised, mostly that I could do it. So, I ran 90 seconds. I did it. I'm actually enjoying running and I'm thrilled with my progress.

Wonderfully Awesome!! It's very nice to move from one point to another and "feel it". I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying your running and walking. I'm too that point too and very glad that the weather allows me to go out and do them!
I have problems with shin splits too...and I've cheated and bought these sleeves to go on my legs (their technical name is compression sleeves)..they are a tad "expensive" (30ish dollars) but totally worth it!! I haven't had problems since and I've been using them since January 2010. Good luck and have a great week!
