    If your body isn't telling you to rest (muscle or joint soreness)... DON'T! It's only 5 minutes. You are good. I'd continue walking at an incline for half an hour or so so that you are getting your heart rate up and working muscles (unless you are doing some other sort of exercise.)

    I Would suggest do a little more each day .... If you start to hurt while running , stop and do a brisk walk instead. Everystep will get you closer to be able to do more.

    If you decide to run outside (which I prefer), try using an app like Runkeeper. It really helps you gauge your pace and distance :)

    Good luck to you and I love your enthusiasm for running! :flowerforyou:

    My goal is to definitely run outdoors but I want to at least be able to do 2 miles on the treadmill before I hit the pavement. Lol, my confidence is not there yet for running outside. But can't wait until I can, and who knew work out clothes are so cute. I'm in love with running gear. I found a new hobby, scratch that, a new way of life. SUPER EXCITED!

    These are some of my favorites. I have a few of their shirts, including the one that says, "Does this shirt make my butt look fast?". Some friends and I each got one, then wore it to a half marathon that we walked as a group.
