Seems kinda rare. At the minimum, you are aiming perfectly high enough. @Mechelle: I agree! Also, golf is similar in that all skill levels can play and enjoy the game. Especially cool about golf is that people can enjoy it for years and years. The morning leagues in Cheeserock were dominated by the 60-70 set. Run on cousin... you are an inspiration to those of us looking to 're-begin' our running life @Tracy: I think you are actually aiming very high… how many people actually achieve your ideal: an exercise that they enjoy and makes them happy with their bodies??

Maybe if I adopted your attitude I wouldn't have to pee 37 times in the 1/2 hour leading up to a race. Run on! (I love the "new" bumper sticker.)
