Yes, it is true. My husband and I are training for a mini in April and today was the day we were to go 10 miles. So this morning we did 6 miles and this afternoon we completed the remaining 4 by 2pm. Our pace this morning was 3.5mph and then this afternoon our pace was 3.0 mph. I can't believe we did the whole thing. Based on the readings, I burned 1103 calories. Can you tell I'm excited :noway:

    Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.
