17:45 Mile

I walked/jogged a 17:45 mile, not bad for a fat lady, but way out of shape, I got winded. It is also not bad for a woman who gave birth only a month ago.

To do the Mickey's Half Marathon in January, a participant needs to be able to maintain a 16 minute mile.  That means to be able to finish the race, a person needs to complete the course in 3 1/2 hours.

I am not timing my pace today, just walking on the tread mill for a half an hour.
