8 minutes is a huge cut on time. That's more than 1 minute per mile. I started seriously trying to run about a year ago and know how hard it is to shave time. Keep with it and you'll be amazed at what you can do. Congrats on what you've accomplished so far.0

You've lost 110 pounds! That's absolutely fantastic! if you only have 15 left, you'll knock that out in no time (although those last few aren't the easiest to lose, I understand). Congrats on your weight loss and congrats on shaving that much time off of your run! Keep up the fantastic work!0
