Just wondering if there are any runners or joggers here? I recently started running again after a long hiatius(12 years) from my soccer days at University of Cincinnati and was curious. Im training for a 5k comming up in feb and my time today of 26:31 is hideous, will hopefully be around 18 by then. Well, are any of you runners?

I still consider myself a runner, but the pounds and this new knee make the claim more memory than reality. Long before pen turning was my obsession it was running. I've completed a little over 500 races, including 80 at marathon or longer distances. I have some fond memories about running outrageous untra-marathons and ending up in emergency rooms.

So you are going to go from 8:45 per mile to 5:45 per mile in two months, it must be nice to be in your young 30s, 30 years ago I could have tried, but that seems like a long way to go. Get obsessed, do lots of intervals and you just might get there.

You mean to run as in it is fun? :eek: Not for a long time and as I remember it was not that much fun then. :wink:
 
I gave up running when I gratitude from high school. Then I went into climb poles for a living.
 
Depends on how big the guy is that I just irritated. I have always said that I have only lost one fight in my life. And I would not have lost that one if I had not slipped going around the corner...
 
Just completed my first year of high school XC and I love it
First ever year I'm 16 I conditioned all summer and my first 5k time was 22:03, and I PRed midway through the season at 19:15
I would have crushed that PR except I caught h1n1 and that lasted for a week before resulting in bronchitis so....... I honestly believe if that didn't happen I would have been at 18 flat
