Anyone? Maybe ran one recently? Anyone run a full-on marathon? If so, you are god to me. I'm running a 5k this weekend with a couple friends. This is around my 6th or 7th one including cross-country. Finally reaching the finish line makes me feel like such a boss, and I really like collecting t-shirts :p Gotta get up at 6:30 though to register since I found out about it pretty late. It's all good, though. So, yeah... discuss?

I've been running all my life. I'd like to think I'm pretty good I run all distances pretty much, from mini marathon down. My dad does marathons though. In fact, he's running the Boston marathon in April. I'm actually a Nike product tester for running shoes so I get to run in all kinds of shoes, which is cool.

So yeah I pretty much love running.

And don't worry about your times. Just keep racing and keep working and the goals will be reached.

I haven't really ran much since my simester of PE ended but my uncle ran a marathon just a couple months ago. He finished 3rd. Also New Mexico is much higher in elevation than where he usually runs. That's pretty crazy, I think with the elevation difference I would have passed out :D

Wow. There's a new Mexico? Sweet! I thought that there was only one Mexico.

The only time I run is when i'm running from my checkered past. Well that, and my constant urge to kill toddlers and the elderly.

There is a guy who asked me once while I was studying in the USA if we also had a moon in Mexico.:eek:

I used to be very good at sports, but if I run now 5k, I'll pass out for 3 days:D

Just got back from my 5k. It was cold, but I got a sweet t-shirt. That's honestly the only reason I ran it; for the shirt.
