When I joined MFP about 9 weeks ago I went a mile on the treadmill and it took me 17:33. Tonight i ran the mile in 14:16!!!! I know its not super fast, but its great for me and I am so proud of myself for getting to this point. I have also lost 4 inches off my thighs, four off my waist, two off my hips and one inch off my arms:) Thats 11 inches!! Wooohooooo! Love you guys! Everyone here really keep me motivated and are a great inspiration!

    How awesome is that!! Keep it up. I hate to run but I force myself to get on that treadmill. I always go for distance or overall time, not speed. Way to shed those LBS.

    Awesome job! Starting running can be hard but it is amazing how fast you can improve. I just started running in January and could barely run 0.3 miles without being tired. I had to push really hard to make it half a mile. And I felt I wasn't getting better or faster. Then suddenly yesterday, I ran 3.2 miles....just keep pushing and you can do amazing things! You rock!

    Thank you for talking about how far you ran and about how many inches you lost, instead of how many pounds came off!
