I'll cop to a giggle at the thread title, but I think you intended to give us a little laugh. I think it is totally awesome though- keep it going and build and build. A year ago I was unable to run much either, now I am running 5 miles 2 times a week pluas a long run on the weekend. I too used C25K to get going. Either way, just stay committed.0

That's awesome! Success isn't just measured on the scale! Keep going!0

Awesome!!! Good for you. Thanks for sharing.0

@ 27 years old and 145 lbs I had issues with starting to run. You're doing great. Keep it up. Couch-2-5K sure gets a lot of promotion around here so it might be well worth looking into. Something to keep us motivated goes a long way.
Congratulations again.0 -

Fan-bloody-tastic!
I remember how good it felt to run for a whole minute... then three minutes, then 5 and 8 and 23 and.... I haven't stopped yet!
That's a great victory, and I bet you feel like a champ0 -
You guys rock.... and yes, the title was made to make people laugh. But I also knew I would not get laughed AT. But it truly was an amazing feeling to me.... just last week I was saying I couldn't because of terrible shin splints, and now here I am starting to run.0

OK, laugh if you want to, but hat is HUGE for me..... first time I have run in about 15 years!
But not only did I run a lap, but I played 35 minutes of basketball / dodge ball, but I also hit the heavy bag for 15 minutes, and then finished up with a 15 minute cool down walk.
All, in all, one helluva day for me.
Thats such a great accomplishment! Good for you!!0 -
Congrats!! The first time I was able to run a lap I was so insanely proud of myself too. That was a couple years ago...and now I've run a half marathon and am prepping for another one (in a week and a half!) Keep up the good work!0

Way to go! I totally understand the monumental achievement that being able to run 1 lap can be. Keep up the hard work! Keep us posted on your progress! I'm looking forward to being able to run more than 2 minutes myself.0 -
