Usually on a track or on the road, treadmill if the weather is truly heinous.

Don't worry. It takes time for your body to adjust to running that far. The first time I ran was as an adult and I couldn't go half a mile without stopping. If you are interested in trying to up your mileage you might look at Galloway's program which incorporates walk breaks. I was able to do my first marathon in about five hours without pain by using his walk/run program.

Anywho...today's mileage - 12 km (8 miles) :dizzy:

Okay I can't run because I have no way to measure distance but I'm going to sign up for 150 miles on the exercise bike if that's okay?
