The key to exercise like running is that you have to ease your way into it. Someone whose body isn't used to it will get sore muscles and blisters and hate it and quit. First, just walk for a mile a day. Then gradually up it to two, then eventually three. Then try jogging for one minute and walking for two. Then jogging a half mile at a time. Then a mile at a time. And so on. It's the fastest way to burn calories; people who run for an hour every other day can eat whatever they want.

TheBYUGal did the 5K last year (she is doing a 1/2 marathon this weekend), and we were thinking that Junior would enjoy the 1/2 mile race. Alas, we totally forgot about the YMCA race until I just read your post.Originally posted by nikuman View PostComment

She doesn't have any time goals, but my guess is that she'd be happy with a 9:30 pace.Originally posted by nikuman View PostComment
