My personal best (from the flat to the car) is about 30 seconds.....I'm assuming thats what you where running to????

Id agree with the bike, less impact on the knees

Biking is the way forward mate. If there are any near where you live, you can also use the ride to check out the corners on those B-roads

If you wanna stick with the running, rather than biking, just stick with it. It will get easier, honestly! You'll also find that the fitter you get, the more you will catch 'the bug' and you won't need to motivate yourself as much to do it. The thing which i find helps the most is listening to music while i work-out, makes it alot less boring.

Oh yeah one more thing.....keep a record of your times, because that will help to keep your interest. Not as mundane when you have a target to beat.

Gd luck with it anyway, we'll be checkin on ya!
