I've had this account for a while and haven't been active on it for a while.

3 weeks ago, I started walking/speed walking on a treadmill. I have over time progressed to a 10 minute warm up for a 10 minute jog. My goal is to eventually get to a 30 minute jog. My question is....

Will I naturally keep building strength jogging like this to where I will be able to easily jog 20, 30 minutes? because 10 is tiring and 30 just seems so impossible right now.

Am I doing this jogging thing right? Will there be any plateaus I will have to work thru?

    Hey there and welcome to the forums! You'll find a lot of threads on all kinds of running and running issues here.

    Sounds like you've found your own way to progress (perhaps without a plan, which is fine)!

    If you think an accountability approach will help then there are monthly running challenges you can join. For example, this month it's...
