With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

Mind you i walked maybe 1/4 of the route but I basically ran/jogged the majority of it. But now my lungs are not sore but they feel restricted. Like if I take in a full breath of air I feel like I have to cough and when i do it gives my lungs a jolt. Mind you I do not smoke.. will not touch a cigarete (not spelt properly) But could it be that last night I had a group meeting for school and 3 of them smoke and we were in a small apartment? Help, because I am worried about this. Perrin ---------------------------- "There is no age limit on transforming your life.

I ran farther with a friend and I didn't get the breathing problem. I was fine .. other then sore legs and a side cramp from eating an hour before the run. So I am glad to say that it must have been the cigs. Or maybe the cat i'm not sure... Aiming for the cigs because i know I allergic to cats a bit I just don'twant to be that allergic to them ... I happen to like cats. Perrin -------------- "There is no age limit on transforming your life. No rule that says that after a certain age you are simply the way you are and that's it.
