Ok ok I know this isn't a very big deal but for me it is! Today I ran my first 2 miles straight! I have never done that before in my life and I am so happy that I finally did it! Before I couldn't even run 200 meters without stopping. So this week I decided to start running with one of my friends and she really motivated me to keep going and push myself beyond my limit. :smile: So thank you JenJab90 for being my running partner!

    Congratulations!

    I realize you're not talking about 1 but two miles that's terrific.

    I remember when I quit smoking and took up running to compensate for the need to suck air and holy crap was I sucking air! I remember the success I felt in completing just one mile and eventually that worked its way to triathalons, ironman and other fun run types of challenges.

    Way to go and keep it up!!!!!!

    Way to go. I can run two miles in my car and not get out of breath. But I just don't feel the burn.


    Keep up the good work. I will pay off.:flowerforyou:
