    There's a lot of truth in there. Number One rule to follow is what you said about listening to YOUR body. Just because a "fitness expert" says "most people" can do X, Y or Z, doesn't mean everybody can.

    It took me 6 months to run a 5k without stopping. :tongue:

    My husband and I are running the 1/2 marathon at Disney in 2013! Maybe we'll see you there lol! When we started out we could only jog 2 min without passing out and now we have done 5K together and are training all the time. Thanks for your story. It lets me know I CAN do this!!!
