If you want to run long distance you'll either need to be extremely lucky, prepare to injured/hurt alot or learn to be patient. Most people who start running and don't stick with it share your exact approach of too much too fast, then get frustrated and blame it on "I'm just not built for running" or "my knees can't handle it".
