[quote=Anonymous]I'm a new runner.. I tried starting with a couch to 5K.. that was too easy for me, so I just started running as far as I could, walk a bit, then run more. it's been 3 months or so... I'm at 3 miles straight running now.. at about an 11 and a half minute mile... but I can't seem to get past that point. I've been doing the 3 miles, at that pace for over a month now. And I'm still in the phase where the entire 3 miles is pretty tough.. each day I never think I'll make 3, but usually do. I try to run 3 times a week, but most weeks it's just two times. What should I do to break through? I want to get a little faster.. but speed is not my main goal. And I'd like to stretch it out eventually to 5 miles.. that's my target. I don't envision ever wanting to go more than 5. What should I be doing? One other note -- other than being active with my kids, I do no other exercise other than the run.[/quote]
