Reasons no:
1) I am seriously overweight and have not seriously run or workout for the last 20 years.
2) I am slow. I get passed by people with strollers. I am usually the last to finish. When I finish a 5k, I have to tell the finisher that I really did only 5k because they are ready to register me as placing 20th on the 10K.
3) I have no degree or college courses in health, nutrition, medicine, exercise, etc.
4) I have made every mistake possible.
Reasons yes:
1) On 7/14/06, I was 292 pounds and could not run for 30 seconds. On 10/13/2006, I am 252 pounds, and can run over 4 miles wihtout a walk break and long distances of 12 miles. I have lsot 6" on my waist and 4" off my coat size.
2) I read a lot. My educational, work, and social success (trivial pursuit games) has been due to the fact that I read and organize a lot of data on topics that interest me. For the last 90 days, that has been running. I have read and learned from some of the best books on the topic.
3) Its the internet -- check me out to see if I am right!
Anyway, this should tell you a bit more about me so you can assess what I write.
Have fun running!
