Then vs. Now!

Less than 2 months ago, I ran on the treadmill for the very first time. I was so nervous because I had never done it before and totally out of shape because I was at my heaviest weight as well. On my first day, I think I did about an 18 min mile and after 20 minutes I wanted to quit I was so tired and worn down.

Well...

Today on a 2% incline, I did a mile in 11:30 exactly. and then finished my second mile in 24:00 exactly, which means my second mile was in 12:30 and that averages to 12 min per mile. but 11:30 sounds better!

and now I can do over 3 miles and over 35 minutes at a time before I start feeling tired. I usually get bored at the 35-40 minute mark, so it's actually more boredom than tiredness.

I can't believe in less than 2 months I dropped 6 and a half minutes off my mile! Now if only I could lose weight that quick Chat Icon Chat Icon
