great job!
now step away from the dreadmill and hit the pavement!0 -
I have been working on hitting the pavement, walking fast and jogging as much as I can. I went 4 miles Wednesday and ran about 3. The pavement is definetely harder, but I am getting there0

treadmill is good for blasting music and setting a speed on the machine and switching off your brain.
pavement is better for change of scenery and learning to maintain a pace.
a mix of both is good but personally i prefer the treadmill, running outdoors and listening to music is a pain for me.0 -
Awesome!
Funny you say outside is harder, I find TM running more difficult. It's all about what you're used to.
If you find running addicting, try signing up for races.0 -
oh and congrats, sign up to local fun runs and stuff, maybe get family and friends signed up too for motivation0

I LOVE trail running. That alone has made running fun for me. I never do treadmills, always run outside, but, man, can't say enough about how fun a trail is versus a track or around the neighborhood.0 -
I never thought about running trails...........I am going to give it a try. Thanks for the advice!0

Train running is my favorite! Now what about destination trail running... epic!0

i strated c25k in january and last weekend i ran 10k for the first time. I am totally addicted. I've never been on a treadmill though. I love being outside.0

i broke my knee as a kid and it effects running, stiffens up a lot....
but just running more :P really helps strengthen it0 -
Wow, congrats!0

I used to have trouble with my knees but they've really improved through doing more strength training, squats, planks, push-ups have really helped, also make sure you get the right kind of shoes.0

The treadmill is convenient for me, I have a gym at work so I can run on my lunch break. AND I love to blast my music.0 -

running along the river and canals near my house is beautiful, i have been amazed by how much greenery and wildlife there is so close to the city centre.0 -
I used to run 70-80 miles a week, sadly fractured my foot so that's out, but I love it too, and find it really relaxing0
