Any one up for runnin'?

[Thunderfire]

I walk/run 20+ km a week. Sometimes up to 200km a week

[Enforcer Talen]

I run because the Army makes me.

I run because the Navy makes me
But at least I get 13 mins to do it in(That mile and a half anyway)
I can easily push out ninty push-ups followed by 100+ pushups but making that run under time always kills me

ninety push-ups! I can do thirty in a row, max, before my muscles refuse to work anymore. *humble look*

I did 2 sets of 25 pushups yesterday afternoon, and can do more when pressed.
oh, and Im working up to 3 miles, 18 min. fun times.

2x25, no problem, I can do that and more. But 2x100?? Bean's my new hero

11 minutes for 1.5mi isn't that fast, anybody in decent shape should be able to manage it.

3 minutes a km is considered good. You'll have to be faster than that if
you want to win a race.

The poll lacks the "both" option.



Mr. Dan, you just started training now? My team has been working since school got out! I've been doing 45mi a week while you've been sitting on your hind end.

You're lucky you live elsewhere

All summer I was doing summer age group track and it just ended two weeks ago. Because my coach is for both sports, he said that I needed at least two weeks off. It is really hard to go from 400 meters to 5k in just two weeks. I woke up this morning and my legs were hurting like a bitch.

[Lt. Dan]

Made it to regionals I might add.

Ran X-country my last two years of highschool and did the jumps all four. Right now, I'm trying to get back into shape cause I had heart surgery a little over a month ago.

He-heh......one thing I liked about the Navy. Unless you were part of the "fatboy club" PT twice a year and that was it

Serving on a sub I only had to run about 150ft in any direction (mostly for "trim parties" to bust the new "BCP" operator)

That 1.5 mile run was excessive IMO

No kidding... When am I gonna have to run 1.5 miles on a ship? Only thing I could think of remotely close is a carrier, but that's only the flight deck, and it's usually packed with aircraft.

Y'know, unless some sadistic bastard of a CO makes us run up and down ladders all day by calling GQ every half hour...
