I am so excited! Tonight I ran 6 minutes straight for the first time! That may not seem like much, but I never thought I would make it past 1 minute! I am just loving getting fit again & it feels so good to reach these little milestones! Get out there everyone & excercise your butt off!

Keep up the good work! Every milestone makes a difference.

It sounds like you got bit by the running bug When I started running I started out the same way... with baby steps, jog about 20 setps at a time, then I worked up to running 1/4 mile then walk a 1/4 mile, then pushed myself to run 1/2 mile... then pushed myself to run a mile.. all of this took about a year to run 1 mile. I fell in love with running, it keeps you fit and awesome for your mental stability LOL. I put on some great running tunes on my MP3 player and just run Good luck and keep up the good work.
