    Yes you are a jogger. I did my very first 5K a week ago and it felt great. I registered for another right away to keep me motivated. Keep up the good work.

    Nope. You're not a jogger. You're a runner. :smile:

    Thanks again to all who have commented, I didn't want to say runner because I felt like I have not earned that tittle just yet :/

    Definitely a runner - keep up the good work :smile:

    You ran, no? Doesn't matter how far or how fast because it was a hell of a lot farther and faster than everyone sitting on the couch. Now all you have to do is keep going. Have fun :D

    Way to go!!! I can't wait till I can jog/run a mile. I can't do more then a 2 minutes jog and I have been working on run/walk for almost 3 months.

    I'm the same way. I can jog for about 2 an half mins before going to a walk.

    THAT"S AWESOME! Be careful though, this running/jogging thing CAN become addictive!:wink:

    That is fantastic! Welcome to running! You are indeed a runner. I just ran my first 5k and it was such an awesome experience. I am training for a half marathon in February. I'm up to about 6 miles and every little bit further is such an awesome feat and offers a wonderful high! lol Best of luck with it all.

    "If you run you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, to membership card to get. You just run." - John Bingham

    You are a runner, not a jogger.

    Definitely a runner....and good for you. I started a couple of years back with the Running room and the first run for one minute, walk for 2 minutes nearly killed me lol. I have completed six 5k's now. I am by no means fast but it makes you feel awesome when you finish a run.
