Tonight I thought I would try to see how far I could run. I started at the apex of the inner horseshoe of the run and ran down the inner leg and around the foot and back up to the first light post. Hmm that should be about 1/4 of the way. I then walked to the apex of the outer horseshoe and then ran the to the bottom of the horsheshoe. I then walked back to the inner apex and then back to where I stopped running the first time. Then I ran to the apex of the outer horseshoe and walked to the bottom. That only left the bottom and the inner leg of the inner horseshoe. I ran that and even sprinted the last light pole to complete my first full mile run since I started. What do you know...I did it.
My heart rate was about 144 after the sprint but most of the time it was around 120...good aerobics. Time was under 34 minutes. After five minutes I was back under 120 again with some cooldown walking.
Still need to do some stretching but I have made one small step for mankind but one great leap for this man.
As my Momma used to say " Runner is as runner does"
Goodnite all.
Watch the BIG man disappear before your very eyes!

I one mile leap is a big leap for any man. Congrats! Just a small pointer: Be careful of the sprint at the end. The adrenaline can shield your senses from pain and destruction of your body. It would be prudent to make sure you have a good base before doing power sprints.
Keep up the good work!
