Um, hello, running a mile at any speed is better than a lot of people can manage. Good for you, stick with it and you're right, you may want to share your exciting news with people who care and have compassion for those trying to better their lives (and maybe she was jealous?!)
I agree with everyone, running a mile at any speed is great. If your coworker makes a similar comment in the future, ask her if her intention is to be supportive or critical, and if it is to be critical ask her what she gets out of that and does it make her feel good. When people have to consciencously accept responsibility for their comments, they might think twice about what they say.
