because i ran my first mile EVER today.. and when i reached that mile mark i cried.. i have never ran that far ever and as of 2 weeks ago i couldnt run more than a half a lap (a lap is quarter of a mile). and today i did it..
in the beginning i did not set out to run a mile just a little more than the half of the lap. i just never stopped..
this was one of my goals that i set this month.. the one i thought that i couldnt do..
I DID IT!!

    Congrats and great job!! I remember the first time I ran for 8 minutes straight without stopping and the first time I ran 20 minutes straight without stopping. Both times when I did this I teared up. It's such an amazing feeling isn't it?

    That is so awesome!!! I recently ran 10 minutes without stopping. Every couple of days I added 2 minutes, so first 10, then 12, then 14, and no I can do 20. It's such a a great feeling to set a goal, and then accomplish it! I love hearing about these moments when exercise finally clicks for people. Keep up the good work, I bet you can do 2 miles next :)
