    RUN??? I wish I could run... haven't done that since my military days 30+ years ago (ouch that was a long time ago). I want to take up kickboxing again, but have to get myself limbered up first. The last few days has been definite exercise.... spring cleaning at work.

    I was in the Navy 20+ years ago! Man, 1.5 miles in 9 mins lol. Years ago I did the C25K and it really works. My plan is C25K three days a week and weights two days.
    You can add me if you'd like.

    I used to run when I was in my teens and early 20s ... but not much at all since then.

    And then in late November 2017, I started running on the treadmill and felt OK. So in early December, I decided to try running outside. By mid December I was running longer than I think I had since I was a teenager.

    In mid-January, I ran a 10K event ... my first ever! :)


    BTW - did I mention I'm 51?
