I formally confirmed that exercise-induced asthma was NOT the problem, and it's just poor lung conditioning.
Ran 0.5 km and took a break because weird left thigh cramps. Don't know what was going on there.
Went back at it for the rest of the 3 km (ish, the machine got confused and restarted so I lost some distance in there). Took water breaks but otherwise ran straight through. Probably did the recommended 25-30 mins of daily cardio for the first time ever.
This is an accomplishment after having to start at Level 0 in C25K, and then use the elliptical because leg strength and cardio are NOT in unison on this one. I can run! Woo!

(I also did some stretching and kettlebell exercises)
