"Only 15 minutes a day, that's not much. It's great for people to know that walking around, doing some stairs, that's getting a cardiac regimen going." Read the article Quote

Read the article I think a woman who ran a complete marathon while 9 months pregnant is bonkers. She endangered her child, as the kid will be adverse to running his entire life. Quote
Members lookin Posted October 15, 2011 Author Members Posted October 15, 2011 My thought was more along the lines of a fifteen-minute walk every day, not that we all go get preggers and run a marathon. Although I certainly admire your enthusiasm. Quote
Members Lucky Posted October 15, 2011 Members Posted October 15, 2011 I do 20 minutes on the treadmill several times a week. It has been too hot here for a walk,except at 5:30 am when the dogs go out. Earlier this year I developed Runners Knees (chondramalaycia sp?)after years of jogging as a younger man. It hurts like hell until you get the artificial cartilage stuff injected. It can make a man downright grouchy. Quote
