Absolutely....no argument there.

My argument exactly.....time + speed + distance (in whatever proportion is all important IMO)
--- Quote from: schro on November 27, 2007, 07:14:03 PM ---I think you should concentrate on time rather than speed.

Again, IMO speed does play a decent role as I can crawl at 1.0 mph for an hour and that's the intensity my 83-year-old mother-in-law achieves pulling her basket, running her errands.
I got the 8.5 mph from you and Paul....as a GOAL....yeah it's not important now (sh** I can't do it NOW)....
But your 5 miles in 42 minutes = about 7.2 mph. And Paul's 3 miles in 20 minutes (at the time he retired from the military) = 9.0 mph are both damn decent no matter HOW ya slice it.
I think 8.5 mph for 4 miles is a good goal for me, ya selfish bastard :x!.
Also, I ain't no runner....but it seems if one is to win a marathon....maintaining a certain, winning pace in addition to time and the 26 miles is ALL important. (I understand it's the 26 miles yer arguing is more important than the speed)
Thanks for helping me think these thangs through O0

Ya know, all of this planning is on the output. What do you plan on doing to reduce the input (i.e. food)?

Exellent point.....That's a critical ingredient.
That Isagenix cleansing program I wrote about a ways back in this thread works GREAT!
Razor X:
Schro is absolutely right; controlling your food intake is essential. No amount of exercise will take weight off if you don't change your diet.
Just remember that to lose two pounds a week, you have to have a caloric deficit of 1,000 every day. Be careful not to cut your calories much more than that because your body may go into starvation mode and slow down your metabolism.
Good luck. We all know you can do it.
