    Great job! I was there in July, and next month I have a half marathon! Just keep going, rest when needed, and keep setting goals. I LOVE setting goals. The best moments for me running have been::

    First mile non-stop.
    First 5K
    First 5 mile non-stop
    First 10K
    First 100 mile month.

    I will be adding half marathon soon! Great job and keep going. Tons of milestones feel awesome in running!

    That is wonderful! Congratulations! I just started the C25K program last night. I haven't tried to run since high school. Even though I didn't run that far, it was my biggest accomplishment in a long time. It felt amazing...I can't wait to try it again tonight.

    Awesome! Congrats! I want to start a running program too, I would love to be able to run that far non-stop. Did you do C25K or any other program or did you just get out there and run?

    First off, Thank you all so much for your kind words. :) I didn't do C25K, I just looked up how to train for a 5K and printed it out. When I hit that mark I looked up how to train for a 10K and kept going. lol I'm almost through the 10K training.

    Great work! That's a great milestone!

    Coming from someone who is currently nursing achilles tendonitis, please take your time increasing your distances. I felt so great once I got over five miles I started increasing to fast and now I'm injured.

    Good luck to you!
