I run out of breath after about a 100 meters. Not good. I haven't even been outside today.

I've been running some lately but my friends don't want to join me anymore since they think I'm too slow. :(


Oh well, I'm going to start. Rocky style!

Who cares if you're slow. Go for it alone. Nothing wrong with that. I've always trained and run my own races alone.

Some people need company, though. Tomorrow, I'll be running with a friend who is in final prep for a grueling marathon--the average finishing time for it is something like 5:00. It's a wilderness marathon (on the trails) and it's hard. He needs all the help he can get mentally--physically, he'll be fine.

If you want to work on increasing your speed, do and hill/tempo repeats.

There's lots availble about that online and in Galloway's book on running if you're interested. You can do it...it just takes time & practice/dedication.
