    I managed to do 1X3min, 2X5min and 1X7min runs!!! I couldn't believe it!
    This is after not being able to get past 4 mins and even then I was gasping for breath and flopping about all over the place :)
    Fabulous news, I love it when people come back with an update after asking for advice! :drinker:

    Try singing while you run so you learn how to control your breathing. Maybe cover up the machine so you don't see the time and just fight through the pain, I have learned a lot of it is mental. I personnally have a hard time running on the treadmill but can much further withouth stopping when I run outside. Good luck
