I just ran for 17min straight on the treadmill, I haven't done that since high school (which was a while ago, and I was actually in shape then and ran track!) it is such a feeling of accomplishment! Yay me!! LOL

    Congratulations! You will find as you go on, you can increase your speed on the treadmill while running for longer periods of time. Keep up the good work!

    It's always such a GREAT feeling when you reach a personal milestone. I remember not being able to run over 20 seconds when I first used the treadmill, then I was happy at 5, then 10 and now i'm up to 25 @ 6.5mph. It always feels amazing knowing i've pushed myself as far as I can.

    Here's to you making it 20 very soon! :-)

    Thanks everyone!!! I just kept pushing myself, saying "just one more minute", and then "just 10 more calories" it felt great to make it that far and I can't wait til I can hit 20min or MORE!! :smile:

    Running is a mental game. Mind over body!
