This is little NSV, but it really had my spirits up!
Even while in good shape, I could never run. It's become a minor goal of mine, to be able to run just a little bit without stopping. I started at the gym about 2 months ago and could run for o...10 seconds? Then my knees would start to hurt.
Today, I was able to run 4 1-minute spurts. I ran about .25 miles! I was so happy. =) I've also cut down my mile time from 23 minutes to 17 minutes.
Now I just need to work on being comfortable running while there are other people in the gym...
