Hmm I have 2 cars and a motorcycles... Can't imagine running more than a few hundred feet before using one of these marvels of the 21st century.

I won't be running one probably walking unless I can get myself up to that point by September

kelmac07 · 05-24-2009, 08:12 AM

After 23 years in the Army...i am NEVER running again!!

ucla695 · 05-24-2009, 09:59 AM

Congrats...glad you liked it.

I ran one about 12 years ago and that was more than enough to get it out of my system.

GTsetGO · 05-24-2009, 10:11 AM

i figure if i schedule myself to run one every 6 weeks or so (or however often they are shceduled around here), it will keep me going to the gym and working out.

i tend to slack off with the whole gym thing if i don't have a reason that i need to get in shape for. so hey, say goodbye to these 15 extra pounds that i have.

Congrats bro..nothing like finishing a race happy

Nice work. Congrats on finding something you enjoy that is a good workout (that's the hardest part).

I started running 5k's a few weeks ago with the AF X-C Club on base. We run a 5k every Tuesday. It's really the only time I actually have fun running. I might start training up to run longer distances, maybe a 10k in the next month and maybe a half marathon by the end of summer. We'll see...

When i saw the 5K thread title I thought it was referring to a cigar budget. Not something i'll ever be doing but I'm glad you are enjoying it!

Have run 5Ks, 5 milers, and 10Ks. Hoping to run again once I can get rid of lower back pain.
