I did it...I finally ran 3 miles without stopping. It was slow (12 minute miles), but I did it! I didn't think it was possible!!

Anyone else do something today they didn't think they could ever do?

    That's so amazing! I just started running, and I ran a quarter mile without stopping. It was awesome.

    Congrats! I didn't think I'd be able to get through a mile non-stop, but I did just the other day and am looking forward to getting to where you are right now!!

    Congrats! It is such a great feeling isn't it!
  • Awesome job! Today was my second day of Bikram yoga, and I was sure at one point I would be unable to stay in the room, but I was able to!

    that's awesome. a couple months ago, I started jogging some on a whim...and some urging from a friend (of course, I first had to get past my excuses..."I have flat feet"..."I don't jog"..."I will get shin splints"...etc.). I haven't jogged since high school, and only jogged in high school when it was required in my PE class. needless to say, I never jogged more than 1 mile...and those 4 laps around the track seemed like they would never end. Anyway, although I'm primarily focused on HIIT, I would also like to be able to run a 5K without stopping. I'm up to about 2.2 miles so far. I can't believe I'm doing that much.
