Damn, am I out of shape.
More tomorrow, but here's the summary:
I ran about 1/3 of a mile in a 1-mile journey. Much further than I figured I'd go.
I wanted to quit, but I wouldn't let it happen.
I'm sore already.
"Right Here. Right Now" by Fatboy Slim is a GREAT running tune.
I feel great right now. My goal is three days per week, working up to a mile without stopping as soon as possible.
Night, night, FAT people.

Nice work, my man.
I remember the first time I decided to run in years, I did that 5k race. I used to do those all the time, and I thought I was going to die.
Heh, the last time I went out running I only made it about a 1/4 mile. Actually, I think that may have been just jogging :(
Sometimes it helps to start off with just walking a lot. This may even be where your HIIT comes into play.
Walk to warm up.. jog/run until you feel like you can't anymore.. and then just walk again until you catch your breath.. and then run again until you're about to die, and then just walk again until you recoup.
Thanksgiving Day, that's how I did it. I finished the 5k in Detroit.. it was the first weekend that I started this blog. I was so out of shape it wasn't funny, but it was the accomplishment that set me off on the right foot.
And I paid the price the next few days because I didn't stretch.
