What should I try for next?
Last night I ran a mile. I want to increase it. Should I go for a mile and a half. I tried C25k and I am too impatient. Any ideas what I should do?

This. Start training for a 5k, maybe instead of the beginners plan, try a more intermediate plan. They tend to be a bit more aggressive when it comes to adding mileage.
Completed 2012 Races: Cupid's Chase 5k Feb. 11th: 26:20, Donovan's Run 5k March 10th: 25:00, Statesman Cap 10k March 25th: 57:19
Upcoming: Komen Race for the Cure 10k May 12th (SA)
Ditto!
But make sure you don't increase your distance too quickly -- following a plan will help assure you of this. A friend of mine started running recently. She loved it and felt great. She went from 1 mile on two days the first week, to 1.5-2 miles 3 days the second week, and then the third week she ran 2-3 miles on 4 days... and then was sidelined for almost two weeks with knee pain from overuse. Don't do what she did!
Good luck!
