Was your leg broken at the time?

Given your talent you should have been in the ten minute range. Were you injured or loafing it?

I believe he is referring to your Nike+ screen name if you use an iPod Nano when you run.

1. I have no talent
2. I'm terrible at long distances
3. My leg was not broken. I was just slow. But I was impressed with my time (my friend was not).

The longest I have ever run was during freshman year in ROTC. 3 miles or so.

For some reason I can tolerate long distance on the bike. But not running.

Oh, man. As soon as I have some spare change to splurge on Nike+ I am buying one to be official. I am coming for you ewth8r. I think I should be able to shave 3 minutes off my time or so by the end of summer. We'll see. Getting married and such will be a setback though next month.

Good luck, you'll hopefully have to shave more than that off of your time. I've only been running for 3 months or so after being a coach potato for the previous 10 years. By the end of the summer, I'll be well below my current time

Does 5k=3.1 miles?

I can't officially participate (no Nike+), but I ran 3.1 miles in 24:48 this morning on the treadmill.
