[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am overweight, out of shape and lazy. I don't think I will ever be a runner. Right now, I can barely run a mile and I've been working up to that for almost 2 months. All I can do is keep trying and pray that I burn some calories in the process. It is SO hard.[/quote] You can do it, just keep it up. I have been there. I currently weigh 200 pounds and have completed two half-marathons -- one at this weight and one at 215 lbs (I used to be bigger, have lost 50 lbs so far). I ran each half-marathon the whole way, at a 10:30 pace, which while slow for some, I am quite happy with. When I first started, it took me a long time to get past the 1-1.5 mile barrier. I never thought I would be where I am today. Never. Just keep it up, you will see progress. Good luck to you![/quote]
