Re: Start Running
I need to get back into running. In high school I ran a 5 minute mile and 18 minute 5k. Those times have gone up since I left for college.

Re: Start Running
Man that's really fast. I ran track in high school, my fastest time in the mile was 4:54, but I only broke 5 min that one time. Typically it was in the 5:15 range.
If you're wondering what time will do to you, I only recently started running again. Just got my mile down to 11 min and I'm actually happy about that. Once I get it down to 10 min I'm going to work on endurance so that I can do that pace for 3 - 5 miles. I'm not looking to run a marathon, just cut weight and get back into shape!

Re: Start Running
Started running a few years ago and have ran several 5K, 8K, and 10K. I signed up for a half marathon in the fall, and kick off my training plan tomorrow. Got a goal of finishing under 2 hrs. Excited about completing it, but nervous as this will be the longest race I have done. If everything goes as planned looking to tackle a full marathon next year.
Best advice I can give for someone starting is run to times not distance. For example, don't say I am going to run 2 miles instead tell yourself that you are going to run 20 minutes without stopping. |

Re: Start Running
Did 2 miles tonight with my 8 year old in 24 min. That's 12 minute miles which isn't that great, but we actually did the second mile faster.
Good run.

Re: Start Running
I went several years w/o running... ran a 5k about a month and half ago... horrible time and lost to a girl...
I bought a new pair of nice running shoes as motivation to get back in shape, and it's been going wonderfully! Hopefully this thread will be some extra inspiration too!

Re: Start Running
Here's a quote for those of us who struggle to get started.
"A year from now, you'll wish you started today." Get out there and run!

Re: Start Running
Nice car back there.
You got full coverage on that? ...on another note, my daughter and I broke the 10 min mark last week. I'm stoked.

Re: Start Running
Hey GH! My daughter and I did 2 miles tonight in just over 18 minutes.
We hauled ass, she almost puked. Great night, I felt I could run forever.

Re: Start Running
There is a high runners get from chasing pavements.
That is a great feeling. Good job man.

Powell runs all of the time on the weekends and participates in whatever running event is going on that weekend. I don't know if you've got time to do that, but they seem to have fun. |

Re: Start Running
I was going to coach my daughters Girls on the Run team this year, but I found out that I can't because I have a penis.

While that sucks maybe it is for the best. you will probably still get to be around and provide support and assistence without all the coordination duties and responsibilities.

I need to get into the water more. How often do you get to do water aerobics? That is a crazy full body , low-impact workout.
