    Nice work. I know that feeling too!

    As someone else has said, that first mile is the hardest. Once you get into that rhythm and it's one foot in front of the other, it does get easier to 'just do one more mile'. I'm on 5k so far. Plan to push further in a month or so, but that first mile is always the tough one.

    Keep it up!

    Great job! Yeah I am a typical 4.8mph runner. Sometime I get up to 5.5mph. Keep up the good work.

    This is SO AWESOME! You should feel super mega-proud. Up until five years ago, I was in the same boat as you. I'd never run a full mile start-to-finish. Congrats!
