Started running early June to get ready for a hunt and could hardly run a couple minutes without walking. Hated every second of it. Kept running and putting one foot in front of the other, even on days I didn't want to. Somewhere along the way Ive learned to embrace the hard, and have begun to crave the difficulty. Last week I ran 7.5 miles without stopping.

Just signed up for my first race with my girlfriend (San Antonio Wurst 5k), and may end up training for a half soon.

TL;DR: I couldn't run far and still can't but can run further than I could.

just wait until it cools off. You'll feel like you have rockets strapped to your feet.

That's what I keep hoping! VO2 Max has kind of stagnated also, hoping to see a bump there as well once weather cools a bit.

do interval training. 10x400 laps at your fastest possible pace with :30-:60 rest once a week.

Excellent progress

Best feeling, first cold front dont look at your watch the first mile and I bet it is 20-30 sec faster than normal
