I just ran 5k and feeling pretty good about it. I know, this is small change for some of you, but I'm still proud of myself.
Something I learned trying to get back into running shape since Isla, eat before you run! I've known this for awhile but haven't really put much thought into it. Well anyhow, I started running after Isla came, and I was having a terrible time, getting major cramps, feeling horrible....then I remembered that I needed to eat an hour or more before I went jogging. What a difference it has made. I've learned an apple isn't enough, I need a bit more than that, and it needs to be good energy food. Anyhow, you all probably know this already, but just in case not, I hope this helps. :)

Great job Allison!! I think it's a great accomplishment since you just had a baby a few months ago, so way to go!
I've had the opposite problem, and realized I need to wait longer then an hour (probably 2) before running. ;) I've had horrible side aches lately, never had this issue before, but I think they are getting better!
Way to go!!!! I've been the same way about eating before hand... but I've gone in phases. Sometimes I've done great at it, other times I don't do so well. But great job! I'm so glad that it is going well. You're doing awesome!
Thats fantastic lady!! I conquer with what you're saying. What's next for you now?
