On my own on the treadmill, but at my size? **** it. Yes, I'm bragging.

Gratz !!!. I remember when I did my 1st 5K on my treadmill, I was ecstatic. Now I run 5K daily on it as long as I have no injuries. 8)

I so wanna do that. How long did it take you to get to this point?

I remember how exciting that first 5k was! Congrats and keep up the fantastic work!

Congratulations! Get that running bug!

In my opinion, there is no greater feeling than chiseling out some hard earned road mileage.

From my first day in the gym (this time, it's been 2 or 3 years since I was last going consistently), it was a little over 3 weeks. Admittedly, I stopped after the 1st mile and stretched like crazy, and then after about the next 1.25 I did again. My shins get crazy tight (to the point of pain) and if I don't stop and stretch, I can't finish.

Sweet! I've been doing Couch to 5k for a few months now...repeating each week several times...and it's the thought of one day getting to say "I did a 5k!" that keeps me going. Great job!
