Shocked and ellated!

I did my usual 30 minutes on the "kick my butt" elliptical machine this morning. I always follow that up with about 10 minutes on the treadmill at an easy pace just to keep the muscles a little warm and to work out any kinks. This morning I set the treadmill for 11 minutes thinking I would walk 5, jog 1, walk 5. I walked the first 5 and sped it up for the 1 minute jog...it didn't hurt, I wasn't out of breath, I just kept going and going and going and ended up jogging the last 6 minutes of my time!!!! Never, ever, ever did I think that I would be here...NOW. I wanted to get to this place but I thought it would come after a 20 pound loss or even 30. But I am here, NOW.
Friday's workout will include much more treadmill time. I still opt for the elliptical because I can burn double the calories in half the time but I would like to run in 5ks and maybe even a 10k in the future so the jogging has to happen. I am so very, very, very encouraged by this!
