[quote=Anonymous]I haven't run regularly in years, and haven't run at all since at least before getting pregnant with my 18 month old. I've been working out, though, mostly pilates and body pump. Last night in a fit of motivation I went for a run and surprised myself by making it a whole mile without stopping. Now, I ran at 9 1/2 min pace, but I was still proud of myself! So, how do I become a better runner from here? I think C25K starts at a much more basic level, so it may not be enough since I can already run a mile (albeit slowly). I'd like to get to the point where I can run for fitness and weight loss, probably 3-4 miles at a reasonable pace. Is there a better program to try? How often should I try to run? Do I just increase length of run by a few minutes each day? I'm not going to lie - my legs are SORE today! when should I try again? Any tips would be appreciated. [/quote]
