Nice job! It was nice weather, too. Way to be consistent!

Is the 10 miler your longest so far? Great job!! Keep it up!

10 miles is the longest I've ever "run" though I must point out that I've not yet run the whole thing. I have to to walk part of it.

Thanks for your encouragement Christina and Tracy. Sometimes I really wonder why I do this. I don't think I was born with running genes.

Hey, you are doing the distance right? What percentage of runners are born with running genes anyway??

When you wonder why you are doing it, think about how great it is for your heart, health, lungs, longer life span, lower's your chance of getting cancer,....the list goes on and on!! Just be careful out there in the traffic!

Hard to argue with those reasons you list, Tracy. How 'bout this: Runners might live longer but wish they hadn't.

From Tracy1 on Mon, May 26, 2008 at 19:22:53

Oh geez, runners who wish not to live longer should STOP the mad runnin man!
