    Nicely done! Your pace is great. I totally understand the getting emotional part. Anytime I hit a new milestone I get super excited and a little choked up. I also never took care of myself either and only started working out about 13 months ago. It's exciting to see and feel myself getting stronger and more capable of doing the things my body is built to do! Keep up the great work.

    That's fantastic! You should be proud. I, too, started running for the first time this weekend. Couldn't touch what you were able to accomplsh, but it was a good start. My legs feel the same way, but after walking and zumba, they are feeling much better.

    So this afternoon for the first time in my life I Jogged (or Ran) over 3 miles without stopping to walk.

    Previously I had done the same distance but walked about 1/3rd of it while Running the rest. I really couldn't get my pacing down and constantly felt out of breath.

    So today I paced myself, felt great almost the whole run, and didn't stop.

    3.2 miles in 32.5 minutes

    Not gonna win any races with that pace but atleast I ran the whole way and feel great. Although my legs are kind of like jello right now.

    You'd be surprised. I won my age group for a 5K (3.1 miles) with a time of 29:59 two years ago.
