Yuri,
I know I’m slow in responding but I wanted to let you know that I’ve had some pretty terrific success! I’ve worked through level 1 four times and the sample run-through of level 2 twice (not religiously but sprinkled in with my regular workouts.) Last Friday, a workout buddy called me and asked if I wanted to go “do” an outdoor nature trail. I had no idea that she meant JOG an outdoor nature trail! Well, thanks to that first Treadmill Trainer I was prepared mentally and physically….and we jogged very slowly, but I had the stamina to go for 69 minutes! I loved it and have since returned for 3 more early morning runs with my friend. We have now set our sites on running a half marathon in June. I have to say that my mood is so happy and the days seem somehow less invasive. I actually look forward to meeting my friend - even at 5:30AM! This level of workout is like no other.
Thank you so much for your help in getting me started, convincing me that I could. I look forward to your continued help as I push past my mental and physical limits and cross that finish line in June!
I also appreciate your personal correspondence and follow up. I feel like you actually care and the distance isn’t really that far.
