I've just started running again, so I'm going to pipe up on this thread. I'm up to 30 minutes, 2.6 miles on my fifth time out of the gate (I've not run since the fall- so bad I know). Not the fastest pace in the world but I doubt I'll ever be really fast.

I really used to hate running and am not really sure that I'm ready to change that assessment 100% but I bought new running shoes and oh my lord, they are fantastic. I think it's made a huge difference, I'm enjoying running so much more. Plus I've found some music that really works for keeping me up and happy and paced well (god bless cheesy pop music).
