My body type and physical stamina are all wrong for running, but I ran my first Chicago Marathon in 2001 and ran five more (six if you count the 2007 Chicago Marathon that got called because of the heat). Anyway, I think what you're doing is great.ChiBrideToBehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17096848933139366136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187435650535327302.post-29936088621191758052009-02-23T14:18:00.000-08:002009-02-23T14:18:00.000-08:00YAY you!I use to work at a gym and trained for my ...YAY you!<BR/><BR/>I use to work at a gym and trained for my first 10K a few years ago.<BR/>they brought someone in from the "running room" an amazing store here in Vancouver.<BR/><BR/>They taught us the basics and went over everything you just mentioned.<BR/><BR/>in the end, I ran/walk the 10K in just over an hour.<BR/><BR/>What they did not tell us, was not to wear cotton socks!! Please go out and invest in running socks. They make a huge difference in blisters and losing baby toe nails.<BR/><BR/>Congrats, I have no doubt you'll be a huge success this time 'round.Just Sayin...https://www.blogger.com/profile/09086500727998442794noreply@blogger.com
