Week 8 run 1- never thought I'd get here!

[Not a runner-yet!]

Wow, I can't believe I can run 28 minutes, no stopping. I've had to skip runs due to vacation and work but I've kept going. For me that's a feat. I remember looking at posts when I first started of people who were in week 4 or 6 thinking they must be true runners. Here I am, nearing the end and feeling overwhelmed with inner pride. I am a runner. I enjoy it, it pushes me farther than I think I can go. It's gone past just "getting in shape" or "getting healthy", to me this is now the way I want to live my life. I cannot thank this forum enough for everyone's posts. If you're new read them often. Sorry to be so soppy but right now I feel on top of the world!!!

Well done you! It seems to be getting nearer me being at that point! Remember when I was scared looking at 5 min runs what a difference a couple of weeks make!
