Last night during my 4 mile walk I was able to jog continuously for 1 whole mile :happy:

I have to say my Husband walked by my side as I jogged that mile but i was still jogging! lol

    Way to go! I just started jogging as well (about a mile to 1.5 miles a day). Although sometimes I feel like I'm moving at a snail's pace, at least I'm lapping everyone still sitting on the couch! Keep going and kudos to your husband for walking with you while you jogged.

    Hi, well done. I just want to tell you that I started like that four years ago, jogging besides two friends that walked, nowadays they are still walking while I jogg 6 km five times a week. I have even completed a 21 K race. Keep doing it, it is worth.

    That's so awesome! I think you've inspired me! I am NOT a runner, I think my knee would complain too much, but I'm going to try tonight to run for a bit. I walk on the treadmill, and have been hesitant to even try the eliptical machine, because I keep thinking I'm not in good enough shape yet, but I do the 3.8 km/h for one whole hour. If only my knee behaves... :)

    I definitely understand your excitement!! The most I've ever been able to job at on time was like 4 minutes.... I hate running/jogging, so I rarely do it.... and whenever I first start out doing it I'm lucky to hit a full minute!!! Great job!

    Thanks for your encouraging words, it felt great!

    I have been walking 4 miles for about 3 weeks and I started by jogging to the next tree then walk and finally last night I kept going and going and going...

    WOW

    Soon you will be jogging a 5k (3.2 miles). That 1 mile is a super start, and even if you never jog more than one mile a day, it's a great way to get fit!
