Cool, years ago (over 32 years ago) when I was in school, I could hardly run 5 miles. I was a much better sprinter then long distance.
Caily Xia in reply to GoodhartJun 30, 2011. 8:14 PM
ha,it will also good for your health.
and my 800m is 800meter,not miles,then it must kill me *_*

I wish it were for me (although I acknowledge it IS good for most people's health)....I have to seek shorter term ways of raising my hear rate, because running kicks in asthma attacks.....and no one like hospital stays :-)

I run cross country and my team runs every day during the winter in the early morning so it is really cold. I got sixth in one of my cc meets last year so I think I am pretty fast. I can run 2 miles in about 12 minutes.

I go to the same church as the guy for whom my school's track is named, and I kind of feel bad--multiple times, he has approached me to tell me I should run track. It's hard to turn down the guy whose name is in big letters over the track...
24
bannana inventor (author) in reply to CameronSSOct 21, 2008. 2:37 PM
Well if you are fast then you should definatly run track. However if you can run distance do cross coutry. :D

Congrats on your win! I like the fact that running is one of those sports where most of the competition is against yourself; to do better than you did before. I used to run "The Dish" at Stanford, and assorted 5k-ish races (favorite: The Moonlight Run, over the levees around Palo Alto Airport, by the light of the harvest moon...), and "Bay to Breakers" a couple of times. But never on a team. (I sort of decided I could tolerate running long after I was out of school, and I'm not very good...)
24
bannana inventor (author) in reply to westfwOct 8, 2008. 7:41 AM
Thank you!!! Running is the best isn't it? Yeah I had a Race in early August called the "After Dark 8K", although it was in our city streets.
