Hi everyone,

I just started running about 6 weeks ago (although I had been exercising
in other ways previously) and today I finished my second 10k in 2 weeks
(it was great BTW).  I've decided I really like this running thing and
I'm going to stick with it, so from here I need to start some kind of
training program and that's where all/any of you out there could come in
handy!  I finished my first 10k in 57 minutes which I was very happy 
about since I had really only begun running about 3 weeks prior and was
convinced I probably would not be finishing at all, from there I prepared
for my next 10k (which was today) by continuing to run and increasing the
length of my runs from 41 minutes (the longest I ran before my first
10k, but it was a lot of uphill which probably explains how I was
able to make it 57 minutes during the race) to 60 minutes and I
guess that worked because I did improve my time today by two minutes.  
Now, where do I go from here?  I plan to participate in as many events 
as I can find/make it to and obviously I will be setting new goals each 
time for time improvement.  When I train Should I try to run longer each 
time or should I stay around 60 minutes and try to run faster each time?  
I was also thinking that some day (not too far away if possible) I would 
like to try a half marathon or a 10 mile run - again, how should I prepare 
and how long should I expect to train before I could make it that far?

Any tips or information would be greatly appreciated, being a beginner
I am just interested in learning as much as possible.  Oh, one more
thing - I don't want any injuries, I was wondering how long I 
should stretch before/after running and what kinds of things should
I do?

Thanks in advance for your information, and happy running!!!
