OwlCitizen Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 After nearly 2 years of working on my running, I ran a mile in a good time: 8 minutes, 14 seconds. 2 minutes faster than anything I've done before! Woot! Next goal, endure a 5K. Quote Link to comment

Thrillho Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 My one-mile started at 11:40 two years ago, managed to get it down to 7:59 at the end of last September (and almost blew out a lung). Haven't been timing myself since then, just working on distance. I started doing 5K runs last summer too, with around a 9 minute mile / 28 minute 5K time. I'm overweight with bad knees. You can do it, dude! Quote The cancer was aggressive, but the chemotherapy was aggressive, as well. There was aggression on both sides. Link to comment
