I got up early enough this morning to go for a run. I reached a point where there was this huge hill I had to run up and it shut me right down. I walked back home and I felt like I was going to die and I had to get ready for work. I checked my stop watch on my iphone and it said that I had been running for 11.78 minutes.…
