See my last post for information about me and athleticism. (I.e., there is very little to speak of.)
However, I want to see if I can run a six-minute mile.
I've never been a fast runner, and this is the standard for physical fitness, so I'm going to work on it.
When I started running, my mile time was about 15 minutes. (That's also the same speed as a brisk walk.)
It took me about six months to get my speed down to about 12 minutes.
A few years later, my speed is about ten minutes.
If I can take a minute off my mile every year, I can do it.
However, there's something to be said about entropy.
I'm 36. My body isn't really speeding up. It's taken a lot of work to get where I am now, and it's going to be a lot of work to finish this one.
I run about two-to-three times a week. I typically run somewhere between four and eight miles.
My body can tell if I haven't run and it tends to make me feel bad.
Yes, this is a short post, but it's very much a work in progress, and most of the other running stuff went into the post about running a marathon.
