Lisa and I are going to do it. I need to start running this weekend. It's going to be hell trying to get back into it.

I'm fat and I can run a 11 min mile and a half. We run 3 5k's a week and I'm usually done in about 25-26 mins.

It's all about breathing. That and not drinking the night before hahaha

I have ran the bridge before and it sucks! Running across it intially wasnt bad, but coming back across up that long steep hill had me wanting to say fuck this and jump off.

25-26 minutes should be faster than an 11.5 minute mile.

My first goal is 185lbs and less than 30 minute 5k. I pretty close to getting under 30 minutes, but ive still got 15lbs to go.

Let's line them up

When is it? I've been wanting to do that for a while.

My best 5k so far was 20 min something. It's all mental. I just focus on the person in front of me and say I'm not gonna let them beat me.

I disagree that running is all mental. Ask joe. lol

Well, I guess the time is mental. He'll no, it's physical fo sho

I'm about 40lbs heavier than last time I ran, which was about 14yrs ago. I'm going to keep running and try to get that 40lbs off. I really didn't think I could possibly be as slow as I was. 14 min mile:roll:

Damn I'm fatter than most of you guys and I would smoke an 11 minute mile lol

Pretty sure he said mile and a half.

I can manage a 10 minute mile ... as long as I stop after that one mile :(

true dat.

we did 3 miles 3 times a week when i was military, i was senior enlisted in the Dept, and made all my kids come PT 3x a week,

then when the guys made Cheif, we had CPO fun runs 3x a week,

guy at my work is 50, pops 100 pushups & 5 miles every morning.
i pop the alarm clock every morning :(

my 65ish year old sales rep runs 5 miles before work everyday...I can run a sub 10 minute mile at 285 lbs..yal are slack as hell.

Bet

bet what? that I cant run a sub 10 min mile?

It's really not that hard, if you could run a sub 8 minute mile I would be more impressed.

So could I. If I was only running ONE mile

Run a 5k then see what your timed mile jumps too. Peter.

Ill bet money you couldnt do a 5k in under 30.

lol ill give you 2 and the break meaning 2 minutes on each mile for 3 miles?

And you start first
