'k... now I feel ignorant... clue me in? ; What's the avatar a pic of? (well, other than you, obviously... I'm talking context)
 
Thanks for the kudo's. ;

As an instructor at the Running Room and a non runner just over 3 1/2 years ago I believe that anyone can run. You just need to be a bit crazy.

Also the Disney Marathon is a great race (rated in the top 10 in runners world). Over 1/2 of the people in it are novice runners and alot this is there first Marathon.
 
Oh I have so got to get motivated to run. ; I like it a lot myself, but I find that the breathing thing kills me. ; My legs will go a long ways, but as soon as I start running I can't stop panting and that just kills. ; Of course when i don't think about it at all then, everything is great. ; Any tips on how to control breathing while running would be greatly appreciated:-)
 
Breathing comes with time, I used to sound like I was in heat but over time and slowing down I have learned to control my breathing. The biggest mistake people make is not knowing pace.

When it comes to running and training for a Marathon there are 3 types of runs.
LSD - Long slow Distance
Tempo - A fairly fast speed with your heart rate about 80% of max
Speed - This would be the fastest you can go for about 800 metres (twice around a track)

Although I can write a whole paper on the that is the just of it.
 
There are times I'm jealous of people who can run.... but i hear cartiledge is pretty important *laugh* ; I'd love to say I did the Disney Marathon, though ;)
