After a few days delay, I got on the treadmill today. It was really great!!!! I was afraid I would be all out of shape but I guess I don't give myself the credit I should. Chasing after 2 kids has kept me in better shape than I thought. I walked and felt so good I went ahead and ran a little bit. I was afraid if I started too hard, I would hurt all over tomorrow. But my short run went really great. I was going through alot of programs to test it out so have no idea how far I really ran. Not far I am sure but I am ecstatic that I was not foaming at the mouth out of breath. I did run several minutes at a time and felt good. I am such a surprise to myself. It has been over a year for sure since I ran last. This is really great!!!
The treadmill does have an iFit program to train you for long distance running. I am going to have to check that out. Not sure how much that costs. A trainer you can turn off and on.....how nice.
I also went online and found Omega Sports that does shoe analysis. I will go in and check on them next week. My shoes are definately not for running. I got onto Runner's World website and never knew there was so much to learn about shoes!! Go figure!!!

Wonderful, Susan!!!! I'm so glad your first run felt good!! Are you going to do the C25K plan beginning tomorrow? I'm so excited for you!!!
Good shoes are a must, so get a good pair asap....for me, my running shoes make all the difference. I almost feel like I can fly in them! :-)
