That is awesome!

I ran a lot when I was younger and have been an on and off runner since having kids. Getting back into running was hard and the first non stop mile gave me such a sense of accomplishment. I get that feeling every time I go further and the confidence keep building.

That's awesome OP! I am 47 and started running 4 years ago. I have never forgotten the excitement of my first mile. Enjoy every milestone .

Thanks all! I will for sure keep trying to go longer and faster. Luckily my dog comes with me and is totally game and has amazing endurance.

Congrats OP! Keep it up!

Awesome! Congratulations OP!

Congrats OP! I remember that. Such a good feeling.

AWESOME! Congrats! I know what it's like to hit a running milestone. Go you!

That's awesome, OP! I just started running back in October and I remember that milestone excitement, too. Hard to imagine it now, but soon enough you'll be running a 5K without stopping. Good luck!

I totally get it OP. Congrats!

Congrats. I've been running off and on since high school but I'm not a natural runner. Am slow, get winded easily and HATE hills. Some days I find even doing a mile a real struggle (like today) when other days I do up to 4 without big issues. It's great exercise tho and when I'm in the zone, I enjoy it very much. Good luck!

I haven't ever been a runner. I've always done elliptical machines, stair master, rowing, yoga and Pilates.

And I know it's lame compared to some people's achievements so that's why I'm sharing only anonymously....but I ran my first full mile without stopping this AM. Yay!
