First big milestone! (Read 602 times)

	Ran 5 miles today for the first time! Been running for about 8 weeks now. I did it in 44 minutes. This is the first time I actually timed myself. Not that I was trying to beat a certain time but I was just curious how I was going to do. I'm just glad I was able to do it without stopping. Never ever EVER thought I could run 5 miles.

Great job dude! For not having run much... I'd say that's pretty awesome!

	OK, try this: 1. Find a tall object 2. Go 5 miles away 3. Look back at your object and realize... 5 miles is a LONG way! Nice job!
	No, I don't want the damned combo special. Now quit asking me that.

	Excellent Moondog! I remember when I first started running. Long story that I won't go in to but I know what you're feeling. Enjoy the success, don't be concerned with the time, and think of it as a huge step in the right direction.
