    No, not at all. It's a good idea to rest a bit before picking up again (interval training). As you keep running, you'll find that you can run longer/faster while maintaining a lower heart rate than you currently do. But for now, take a break every once in a while and walk. If you still feel like you're not doing enough, increase your incline for some additional resistance when walking.

    Couldn't have said it better. Don't worry about it and have fun.

    Look up HIIT. OR high intensity interval training. Great training method i use it every cardio day, Run full speed for a min walk for a min back and forth, you can change the times as needed,

    Thanks for all the responses. Other than the elevated heartrate, I think most of my trouble is mental. I need to remind myself that I CAN do this - just keep going. Maybe that's a mantra that even the most advanced runner needs to use sometimes. I will keep chugging along :)
