**pornJester** · 05-19-2004, 10:29 PM

I can run a mile, not sure how much further.

**EviLGuY** · 05-19-2004, 10:55 PM

I could probably do a mile.. but not much fiurther, and only if someone was chasing me with a weapon of some sort.

**WWC-Moe B.** · 05-19-2004, 11:04 PM

few miles... but not 26.2 miles

i would break down at 5 miles for sure

**Theo** · 05-19-2004, 11:06 PM

probably half of it some years ago, now not even half mile lol

**Lycanthrope** · 05-19-2004, 11:07 PM

Probably as far as the closest bar.

Every year I tell myself I am going to attempt it. I couldn't run a mile if you paid me a million bucks.

Could You???

**reynold** · 05-20-2004, 01:32 AM

**ADL Colin** · 05-20-2004, 03:19 AM

I ran one at the age of 9. No kidding.

Now I can only run 3 miles.

**Vitasoy** · 05-20-2004, 03:29 AM

1 mile max, that's when I'm absolutely at my fittest. Sad/

**StRoGE** · 05-20-2004, 04:02 AM

Depending on what was motivating me, probably 5-10 miles.
Obviously if there was a prize like $1,000,000 at the end I could run until I died.

No way, that is so awesome. Did you train long for it?

**Nanda** · 05-20-2004, 07:51 AM

**JesseD** · 05-20-2004, 08:08 AM

**Abyss_Vee** · 05-20-2004, 08:10 AM

Hey Dave!

I'm actually in training, to run a marathon in June over in Alaska. I always wanted to run in a marathon and figured that I should start now before I get any older.

I knew that it was going to be hard work and I wasn't sure where to begin so I joined a really cool group, called TeamInTraining. Here's a link if you want to check it out: http://www.teamintraining.org/participant/hertz-164640.

Basically, you join the group pick out which event you want to attend. There's a marathon in SD and in Anchorage, Alaska. I decided that I would train for the Alaska run since I've never been there, plus I rather run in the cold than in the heat.

We workout as a team every Saturday mornings, starting at 7am and sometimes even 6:30 which sucks. However, the runs are pretty easy if you train for it. Trust me if you decide to do it you'll be just fine and it can be done.

After I finish this event, I'm going to check into participating in Triathlon instead. I just think that workout is probably better on my knees and joints.

Hit me up anytime if you want some more information. It's a pretty cool event, plus you?re giving back to the community. This year I can finally tell Santa, I've been a very good girl this year.

Thanks for that info Laurel,

That is cool man. Good luck.

That's still not a joke. Thats pretty damn good.

My aunt ran the Long Beach, LA, & New York all under 4-1/2 hours

**merlin77** · 05-20-2004, 11:44 AM
