I am so excited! I just went out and jogged for 31 minutes without stopping. This has been a dream of mine for so long. This goal becoming a reality is amazing to me. I never thought I would be able to jog for any length of time with out having to stop to keep my heart from jumping out of my throat. WOooHHHHoooo! Sorry to toot my own horn, I'm just silly about this.
Pickle,
I know just how you feel. The first time I was able to continue running for any length of time was AMAZING! It was a Friday night, I was on a treadmill at the gym, and I wasn't worn out after the first 10-15 minutes, so I just kept going. It was all I could do to contain my excitement.
It's nice to see another runner around! I started a few weeks ago and 2 days ago I was also able to run for 30 minutes WITHOUT STOPPING! It's such a huge achievement! I've also heard that once you can run for 30 minutes, its a lot easier to increase your time running!
