    Good job! I have incorporated jogging intervals into my walk. I managed two minutes jogging and two minutes of walking intervals for 26 minutes today. I was proud of myself but was complaining that I don't ever think I will be able to run a mile nonstop. My husband reminded me of how far I have come since starting and I just realized that is what I have to make my next goal. Again, great job!!

    that's awesome!!! you should try a C25k program!! that's what I started to use. It slowly builds your endurance in running!! I did my first 5k in September and by November I ran my first 10 mile race!!!

    Keep it up. I remember when I hit my milestones and how awesome it felt. One day you'll hit 10 miles if you keep it up and you'll look back...

    The first time I did that was a memorable day.

    Great job!! I love running! There will always be room to improve! That is what I love about running, if you feel you need to challenge yourself all you have to do is try to run faster or longer! I have been running now for 5 months and this week I got up to 3 miles with no stops!!! Yay. Keep doing it!
