Natcatvet Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'm still "running" ..... Kinda shuffling ...... My 4/5km but very slowly. Sometimes I feel I could power walk quicker! I feel like I'm burning more calories though and sweating more, so it's gotta be doing something right??!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinchFlockMom Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I'm slow too. I try to increase my speed by 0.1-0.2mph each day of a week, then back down a little in day 1 of the next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KellyAnn Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 And Blayne, that is just fine. My first Marathon in Vegas, i was in excellent shape, a lady in her 70's passed me by and offered me Ibuprofen. Phhtt. Lol. I will never forget that. But I finished, i have short legs. Hee hee. I was moving and thats all that mattered. Yay. Natcatvet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura J Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 John Bingham's claim to fame to running was being compared to Penguins! "Waddle on my friends" we don't have to be fast to be a runner, he paved the way for us to be proud of our slow pace! Just be in the moment with yourself and enjoy the fact you can run or you can walk, the choice is ours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torus_ot Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 "Waddle on my friends" Laura, Some people go to the sauna for dry heat, you got it outside! Lucky you! How to deal with hot weather? First, I would cut this beautiful lion-like hairdo to something more modern, lioness-like haircut. Second, for Pete's sake for the sake of the Penguins get a treadmill!

Laura J Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 I wear my hair up, trust me....I don't look good with short hair (shaved it short in the back while I was in the military, vowed never to do that again).....I just HATE treadmills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blayne Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 I want to see that hair. Looks good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liev Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I too am very very slow. I spoke to my son. an elite runner, who said to keep building my endurance and the speed will come later. So I am taking his advice and waddling onward!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyAnn Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Great job Liev. If you are moving, you are doing it!!! Proud of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
