2. Don't get burn out :-) Personal:
I herniated/ruptured a disk (L4/L5) in my back in December, 2005. I told my orthopedic surgeon I wanted to start running. He said "You'll never run again.". What a challenge! So...I started running.
Since then I've lost about 50 pounds, ran 13 marathons and a number of other races.
I am still a clydesdale runner (over 200 lbs), have a large frame, big bones, and not built like a runner at all. I'm not fast. I mostly run to have some time to myself and keep in shape.

After flying to Orlando yesterday with the family, Conner and I woke up and ran a little over 5 miles around the hotel. It was fun running--warm and nice.
Then we took a shuttle to the port and boarded the Disney Dream cruise ship. 5 nights cruising in the Bahamas.

Woke up on the cruise ship, got Conner up, and we ran on the running track on the Disney Dream. Big ship--2.5 laps equaled 1 Mile. The boat rocking a little made it a little slower run for me. Conner wasn't really affected.
For fun I used my GPS. It logged somewhere around 15 miles (The ship was moving). Actual laps we only did 5.25.

Went to Castaway Key (Disney's Private Island). They had a 5K fun run. It was nice.
Conner easily one the race. I was right behind another runner. They gave us Disney water bottles for competing. Later they left certificates of completion in our cabins. Nice fun run--water stations were great.
Afterwards, we enjoyed the beach with the family.
