    Don't worry... I wasn't going to bug you to death about it.

    Now I have to get moving because if you can do this, I should be able to also. It has only been 15 years since I did this sort of thing. lol

    Hell, if *I* can do it, ANYONE can!

    Get on that damn treadmill and I'll crack a whip on your ass!

    Congrats Elsewhere

    It's awesome!!!

    I will never forget my high school days. I was highly wanted because I was a very fast sprinter. My gym teacher ASSURED me I wouldn't miss any meetings for Track.

    I spent 2 weeks of grewling workouts. Only to find out the first meet was on a meeting night.

    Maybe I can do a 5k...after I get settled in our new home!

    I'm so happy for you. I've attempted running and was proud to make it to a half mile with no resting.

    It takes a few weeks of training to build up your stamina. I'm certain you could do it!

    Here is the training program I used:
