if you're not bothered about timings of your run (within reason) i would concentrate on just achieving the distance.
No apologies needed!! I am starting from scratch, I ran on the street for the first time last week. I have done 5 miles on the treadmill at the gym a few times but found it boring so decided to try it on the street instead.
First run was last Tuesday when I did 8 miles a lot easier than I thought I would, ran again last night and did 12.4 but that took a lot more effort.
