Confession: "Heidi" is really one of my screen names. ;-)

I got the "55 minutes for a 5K" from last week: my overwei...er, "full-figured", 61 year old out of shape wife (with reconstucted knee) managed to get herself off of the couch and walk a 5K. That was one of her times.

I wanted to see just how much enabling was going to go on here.

Had "Heidi" been a real post, I would have advised her to take up serious walking for several months to let her body get adjusted to the biomechanics of locomotion and then perhaps think in terms of training to WALK a marathon, or perhaps run a 10K.

Hei, er, Ollie :-)
