did u run today?milage

No, today was my day off.

Yesterday I ran an 8k race. I will run about 23 more miles this week and then a half-marathon on Sunday.

Competitive eating and competitive masturbating.

I'm still working on getting a city block down perfect. It's improving! :)

I finally found the way to improve run time. Pick a race of any distance and train for it. Go to halhigdon.com or coolrunnings.com and they will have a training schedule there. It works if you follow it.

Thank you! I'll check that out.

Used to run like the wind....forward for my soccer team....could run for days....

then there was that one time I got stupid on a balance beam....

a broken tailbone changes things......after that....running just ain't the same for me.

But, good for you guys who do it. It was always nice to feel so free and to leave everything and everyone behind.

eat run eat run eat run eat run eat run eat run....sleep

**** man

lAPS!!! HAHAHA
100-200 miles a week in laps??? WoW!!!

how long u been a pro fighter? whats ur record?

In high school, I was a sprinter, [100-400 meter dashes]. I have not lost an ounce of speed in over 20 years. I discovered one thing during my formative running years. It became apparent to me that "long distance" running is not good for the skeletal system, joints, tendons, ligaments, shins, knees, and hamstrings. I incurred more injuries on our "5 mile endurance runs" than in competitive sprints, where you run to 100% of your physical effort. You could attain a GREATER DEGREE OF CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS on such indoor equipment as the "Schwinn Airdyne", where your joints are not taxed and the entire body receives a workout. Gratuitously punishing your body is not synonymous with cardiovascular fitness or aerobic capacity.

Then how do you explain people in their 70s and 80s that are still running?

I haven't had any injury problems after starting running at age 40. It wasn't by accident.

No offense, but maybe you were just doing it wrong.

I'm interested in exercises that eliminate excess belly fat and expose abs. Suggestions, anyone?

I am saying that the sheer kinetic exertion on the bodily joints may not be in the best interests of human physiology. I am also stating that a person can get a better cardiovascular workout and fitness through other sports endeavors WITHOUT STRESS TO THE BODILY JOINTS.

For example, I used to be a sprinter in high school. Sprinting requires a great expediture of calories, even though the races are for a relatively short time. The rate of caloric exertion is high. I can and do get a better cardiovascular and lung fitness on the Schwinn Airdyne exercise bicycle.

Well, many champion and recreational runners do incur nagging injuries through their running careers. I am not saying that one cannot run well into their golden years. I simply point out the fact that there are other ways to achieve a greater fitness level without gratuitous stress to the body.

By the way, I can still run down any dog I have ever owned. When my Labradore gets out of the yard, I simply accelerate and overtake him at the tender age of 45.
