Good for you! I have no desire to do more than a half marathon but if someone else wants to run farther, then go for it. A good friend of mine went to California in early December for a 100 MILE trail run. I told her that she is nuts.

you should check out this dude

dean k... something or other... he's called the ultramarathon man... (ultra marathon is a 100miles) but the furthest he's run in a single go with out stopping ish 350 miles... took him 3 days... and he fell asleep running twice!

crazy story.

I don't know that I'll ever run the Boston Marathon... but it'd be cool to qualify. ya know?

but as of today I've never ran a race (apart from x country in HS) and the 10.35 miles I ran the other day... is the furthest I've ran since HS. I've never ran over 15 in my life... but I also don't feel like I HAVE to stop at 10... I feel like i have plenty left... so who knows...

Any of you close to Blairsville, we are having a St. Patty's 5K on Saturday, March 13th - information on the website, or PM me here. This year is just the inaugural, but if the county goes wet this year - the 2nd annual will be the one you will not want to miss!!! Can you say Irish Wakes?

also do the P90x, I have been doing it for about 4 weeks now, hell of a workout. But honestly, I miss pushing the iron around. Gonna do a 12-week transformation workout starting Monday to keep me in check, gotta get off the lbs I have put on since being back in KC.

I only run when chased. Even then, I try to find a place to hide first.

My hip hurts...exercise scares me now.

yes... You change it depending on what you can do. It forces you to challenge yourself. Yes you could do the same reps same weight every time but there would be no point... And that would be YOUR fault not the programs... Ya know?

I see.....however, you know that most people just need to be told what to do instead of giving them a program and say just lift what you want. They need guidance...hence the need for a trainer.

but again... the issue isn't with the program it's with the individual and motivation...

No it's still the program too...

Ur right tho...dedication and consistency (esp. with diet) are 2-3 times more important than the actual lifting routine.

You have to admit tho...I can assure you bodybuilders are not using P90x, though that may not be your ultimate goal.

If I could get say a free copy of said P90x I'd love to read it (or even try it for a few cycles).

ehh I don't think you can blame a lack of motivation on the program

but yeah... P90x isn't designed for bodybuilders... and that's DEFINITELY not my goal... far from it. I don't really care how I look... it's more about being physically fit and being able to move my body weight around.

oh and you can get a copy of P90X on torrents pretty easy
