I just took up running 6 weeks ago. Joined the Running Room run club.

Started with the beginner 2.5K and it was too easy.
So I jumped to the 5K and still felt good afterwards.
Last week I did my first 10K and still think I could keep going.

I was thinking of challenging myself to the half marathon, but I'm concerned about hitting a wall miles from home. The Running Room takes us out on trails, so it's not like I could give up and hop on a bus. And going from 10K to over 20K seems like quite the jump.
