    My gym has a 0.1 mi track, and an older gent runs at a pace such that I pass him walking (I walk at about 4mph). But at least he's running, he does it every day, and he's in decent shape so who am I to judge?

    I’m not the world’s fastest runner to begin with, but when I was rehabbing from a major knee injury and just starting to run again, I got passed by a dude with a walker. In my defense, he was really flying.

    Reminds me of my first few workouts after my last(of three) child was born. I was over a year post partum, 50lbs heavier than right now, and the warmup of a group aerobics class was killing me and making me want to quit. RIGHT NOW. But to my immediate left as a woman in her late 70s or even early 80s totally killing it! And she did so for the whole workout. I stayed, and showed up for the whole series that I had prepayed for. People are awesome motivation!!
