3.1 for the first time ever!!!

Mark1968

Six months ago I weighed 265 and couldnt walk a mile without stopping to take a break. Now I am under 215 and just ran 3.1 miles in 30:55 thats a 9:58 pace! My goal has been to run a 5k in under 30 minutes. Today was the first time I ever ran 3 miles. Another week of training and I should be able to break 30 minutes. It really feels good to be fit!!!!!!!

Good job!!!

What is hysterical about this post is I was going to message you about what bra you wear when you jog!! I really want to jog but need to find a good bra...

I'm thinking Mark1968, you probably don't wear a bra so I will forgo that message :laugh:
