ORN: Total time 45' (40" R/80"W X 15)
40 years ago, right after Cooper's Aerobics book came out, my dad, a couple of my friends, and I use to jog a few times a week during one summer. We jogged a steady 9 1/2 minute/mile pace, talked while we ran, and had some good times. Today, out of curiousity, I set the treadmill at 6.3 (which is suppose to be the equivalent of 10 minute miles on the road), just to see what it felt like. I only ran about 30 seconds.
Good Lord..... I felt like I was doing a 100 yard dash. Now that's stone cold reality.
Whew.

You'll get there....
As we get older our fast perspevtive does change. But more importantly your still moving and trying.
When I first started running again, at age 49, I ran with people decades younger than me. I thought that since we were both newbies, we would be equal. I soon found out that was wrong. :-)
