    You did 13 miles at 2:45am??? That is very impressive.

    Been really slacking lately. Just not enough time in a day to do it all. I still hit the gym consistently but running and biking rarely happen these days.

    I'm an on again off again runner. I'm just starting back up. I'm generally out in the truck for 4 days a week and I just can't seem to get it done while working. If I find the time and place I can't find a shower afterwards. Never works out.

    I'm shooting for starting up again with 2 miles per day when I'm home and work up to 4 or 5.

    2 was easy yesterday. I was surprised. Not but a little sore today.

    And it's just too #### hot in the south to run in the summer. And I hate treadmills.

    My situation is a little different than all of yours. Since I don’t truck anymore and stay in a lot of hotels, it’s a little easier to run. I can’t stand running on a treadmill. Plus, I’m able to shower when I get back. I’m not sure I would be this into running if I was still driving.

    Dude, the heat is ridiculous. For a guy who's never been a runner, some things you don't know.

    Another couple reasons I run so early, especially at home, is the heat, and I run without a shirt.

    Bleeding nipples are not cool

    Then the sweat gets in there and makes it 10x worse.

    The first time I ever managed to run a half marathon distance while training I had that happen. I ended up using bandaids for protection on race day since I couldn't run shirtless.

    I get used pasties from the dumpster out behind a strip bar near me. Gotta save where I can in this economy.

    Seriously, i ran 5.5 over the weekend. Nipples are fine, legs not so good.

    I miss the bar fights!
    But my doc recommends the treadmill and exercise bike since the heart attack.
