So I did my absolute first in my near 45 years of existence
I ran a full 1.5 miles without dying. I could t do this as a kid and I definitely couldnt do this as an adult.
That's a huge deal for me.
@Helical_Code there's a 5k and a 15k marathon every year in my city (usually late July). I plan on doing the 5k for my long term goal and if I make it through with only a scratch (figuratively speaking) I'm gonna attempt the 15 in '26

Sounds like a great goal and contingency plan. We are here to share in your joy!
@Helical_Code so now I've made a bet (I gotta stop this lol) I'm. Still friends with my old gym teacher. Known him since I was 7 years (so a long time lol) he literally watched me grow up elementary, jr high and high school. Don't ask how that happened. Anyways I told him what I'm doing and he's like maybe. (About the 5k) So I told him if I hit 210 by Dec 31 you gotta run it with me. If I don't, your off the hook
