    That's awesome! I remember thinking I'd never be able to go a whole mile without stopping, and now I can almost do 2!
    Keep running! It only gets easier =3

    this makes me so happy to see this! great job! This time last year I couldn't even jog that pace for 30 seconds....and now i'm going on a 10 mile run tomorrow...its all possible and great work!

    That motivates me like no other! There are so many times when I have to tell that little (fat) voice in my head that's like "slow down, stop, I'm tired" and then I keep going and it feels fantastic! I can't wait to do 10 miles (at a run even!)

    Honestly that C25K program worked wonders. There was one time right in the middle of it that I had the most fierce mental battle of my life I think. It was the first time I had to run 2 miles straight, the the way the program had been going before that you never really ran more than 3/4 of a mile at once without having a bit of a walking break in there. It was so so so so hard to break that barrier but ever since doing that running became a whole lot easier. I swear its all about beating up that voice inside your head!

    I was doing C25K a while ago, but gave up. Now I'm just going by how my body feels and I feel like I'm getting good results that way. But I won't ever bash on C25K, it's helped a lot of people.
