    oh very good esp the metric one !
    The catch I must , must run 3 times a week instead of the once a week that I manage to fit into my schedule. (thinking aloud how do I do that ? mm )

    I started MFP back in February 2011 and I have currently lost about 62 pounds. For the first time in my life, I feel and look healthy. As a child I've always been overweight and have never been pleased with way I look. To be where I am now, it is the most amazing feeling in the world. For once, I can actually start to see my abs! I know it's vain, but I've never been able to see my abdominals before.

    Since I've started running, I've ran a few 5k races and I plan to run my first 10k in about a month. I'd like to thank my family and friends - especially here on MFP - for all of the encouragement over this past year. For those of you who are committed to exercise and nutrition, keep it up. The results will pay off over time - stick to your goals and work hard! :happy:
    wow that is amazing check out your abs very nice and inspiring of course...keep at it

    Running is my weakest "talent" how did you build up to 5k ? thats my dream. To give you an idea of my fitness level..
    I workout 3-4 times a week Spinning, Boxing, Stregth training and Yoga

    I can only run one day and I can only manage a max of 5 mins.

    Sounds like you're running too fast when you do run. And that'll only do one thing - kill you after the same length of time every time. Slow it down, big time, to a jog where you can chat to someone, or sing along to the music (in a breathy & not very tuneful fashion). If you get too tired, walk for a couple of minutes to recover then jog slowly again. And repeat until you've had enough. As it gets easier, you'll get the jogging going longer, the walking needing less. Keep it slow and it'll work. Faster will come by itself without trying.

    You can also shorten your strength workouts and stick some running on the end. Or intersperse sets with 5 mins on the treadmill, but again, keep it steady so you can breathe.

    And to the OP, I'm well impressed! Congrats on your happiness :D
