I've been doing a jog weekly, running a route that I know is about 5K. Trainer had a goal for me to run/walk it in 48 minutes, I did it in 47! Entirely due to forcing myself to never drop down a gear and walk it - I jogged it the entire way and waited for the second wind. It wasn't a fast jog by any means, and I never got the I-feel-great-lets-go-faster second wind. More like I'm-feeling-way-less-crappy than I thought.
47 minutes

I ran a Marathon last November in Florence and I really think running is just a case of gradually building up your endurance. Last year I'd often do 7 mile runs and feel like it hard work all the way through... however there was a time when I couldn't run a mile...
It definitely gets easier tho !!
