    AWESOME. I sooo want to do a half marathon. I am going to buy a knee brace this weekend so I can start jogging. Thanks for the inspiration

    That is awesome, you have inspired me to give it a shot tonight! I have a "belief" that I CANT run, thats not true, I just have always chose not too cause it hurts, which I know today is what I need!

    You are a total inspiration. If you can do it, so can I -- I'm not going to use the excuse that my 71-yr-old knees are too old any longer. Thanks for the kick in the butt!!!

    awesome!!! I've thought about running.... but it's always a fleeting thought!! I'm not that interested in it because I have a bad knee and ankles that have been messed up my whole life... but maybe I'll give it a go sometime!! :)



    I have always wanted to run, felt like a big failure because I have pins in both of my ankles (for half my life now), and with the ankles came the out-of-wack knee, but I am going to put a brace on, suck it up, and get out there.

    Firstly ... CONGRATS !!!
    Definitely something to be proud of ... interval training is the best way to get started.
    The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step (or something like that) ...

    Secondly ... what the heck is NSV? lol

    Congratulations!!!!!!!Way to go!! If you liked it and want to keep trying it, try the couch to 5k (c25k.com). i am not a runner, nor have I ever been. I had always said when I run I hurt myself or am running from something. I love this program!!

    That's fantastic. I started barely being able to run in short spurts between walking, and now I run 5Ks. I don't run fast, but the sense of accomplishment is amazing. Good on you!

    Your list totally caught my eye. First off CONGRATS to you!! I can almost feel how good you felt guru your post. I have just started walking 4-5 days a week and would love to work up to running. But as you showed I don't know what I sm waiting for??

    Keep it up and before you know it you will be running miles!!

    Thanks for the motivation!!

    I have lost a lot of weight and I feel like I'm going to die every time I try. Good for you. (Maybe I have asthma...)

    Yay! I just started running, too. A minute of running then a minute walking. You're starting the right way, slow and steady!
