My legs hurt

How many miles are in 8 kilometers?
And the most I've done was a mile. And I jogged the entire time. I got 7 or 8 minutes. I wasn't feeling very good that day, though.

5 miles = 8 km

GEEZ, that's a lot.
How many miles/km did you actually jog?

[HTA!]

1 P.E. Credit.
I'm not terribly athletic, but I can hold my own.

I was volunteering at the cross country meet the other day and someone from my school ran 3 miles in 17:29. D:

Only American state that requires gym class is Illinois. Had to take it until I graduated from high school.

Uh, New York does too.

Recent thing? I read IL was the only state a while back.

It was that way all through high school for me.

In celebration of what Terry Fox did for Canada, my school (and numerous others) do an 8 kilometer walk/run in appreciation. Sadly, my school makes it necessary to pass your Physical Education, and they also evaluate your time. I think it's ridiculous, but I'm curious to see what physical requirements you guys have to complete, just for a passing grade.

Also, my time of completion was 47 minutes, 23 seconds. Bah.

So, talk about Gym, and other demeaning things.

wow really? I was recently in the Human Race on August the 31st in lima and now I just did a sponsored run which was 5 kilometers.

You only have to take gym for two years in high school here.

That is, unless you take a month-long gym course during the Summer going into your Freshman year and another one going into your Sophomore year.

That's how it is here, too. 

God I was so happy when I became a junior. xD  NO MORE GYM!

we only had mandatory gym in grade 10 up until this year.  now it's mandatory through high school (a waste of time if you ask me.  i love gym, but you could spend that time, you know, LEARNING).

funny thing is, there was a very low percentage of lardasses in our school.

I ran most of it, with only minor breaks for oxygen. Had I pushed without a break, I would have passed out. As I said, though, one kid ran the whole thing in 28 minutes, which is god darn impressive.

Gym? Find something better to complain about~

Unlike the majority of the internets I'm only 5 pounds overweight and I run like hell so Physical fitness anything was of little concern to me.

When was the last time you saw your toes, let alone ran 5 miles?

My Toes? 2 seconds ago. 5 miles? 3 months ago, according to DDR's counter ^^

5K is nothing I did it all the time in high school, I just wish I had more time now to do it
