You use a GPS to keep track of a stroll!?!?! You get lactic
acid build up after a matter of minutes (the majority of
which are walking!)!?! How the hell is a GPS going to keep a
track of your progress - its blatantly obvious by the
limited amount of running that the GPS hasnt got a great
deal to keep track of! If the army is your goal, I would put
it off for a long while and make an HONEST and DECENT
attempt at getting fit - one where you can say you have
tried to do it adn keep your INTEGRITY. If you cant push
yourself for yourself, what makes you feel you will be able
to push yourself for other peoples benefit when the ****
hits the fan. Mark
