I would have gone, but I have the arthritis

Tell leah not to work herself too hard. It won't be good for the baby.

[Narrock]

That's a good cause to run/walk for. I'm relieved that you guys weren't doing it for a knuckle-dragging cave-dwelling retarded ass cause like: Legalization of marijuana, or pro-choice, or amnesty for illegals, etc.

you're such a piece of shit

[brinstar]

we can't all drive trucks for jesus

mindia FFS shut up and start a new thread if you want to be a troll; this thread is for how awesome 5K runners/walkers are.

i am happy to report that my time is very gradually increasing since surgery... up to 40:59 now--which yes, i know, a 13-minute mile really isn't that exciting. BUT, i have defective legs, so this all seems pretty awesome to me. I'd eventually like to get it to around 30-35. i am realistic enough to know that i'll never be "fast," but i'm just hoping to improve my endurance enough to eventually hit up a half-marathon. :D

thanks to alex for being such a motivator!!

i can run a faster mile, but that's it
1 mile


1st mile, 6 minutes

4 extra steps, 24 hours



congrats on finishing

[leah]

thanks ^^

my best time is something like 36-37, but that was before all the surgery nonsense when i was at my best physical condition. i'll get back there soon enough, though, np.
