seeing as how I have flat feet and never run, I am probably still a mile or 2 short of running 10 miles in my lifetime.

I hate you. If I could give out negative reps, I'd punch you in the balls.

Ran a half marathon at a 7:58 pace in the spring of 2010. As for ten miles......eh...dont know. Isten miles the restraining order distance that Nick Mangold has on you now?

Can I use my times from back when I was in high school and actually would run long distances like this? If it has to be now, we'll start with infinity and go slower from there.

I run about a 7 minute mile. Given the fatigue factor, I'd probably run it in about an hour and a half.

Probably not very fast. I enjoy wearing shorts that are at least down to my knees, and given how short successful runners wear their shorts, I wouldn't be very good at it.

I don't wear flatbilled hats, but I don't have anything against them or the people that wear them.

I ran 5 miles last year in an 8:05 pace. Right now I could probably do 10 miles (assuming it's flat terrain) at around a 9:15 pace, which would be a little over an hour and a half.

I walked about 4 miles home from a bar over the weekend and was sore for a few days. So that tells you my fitness level

Depends on the grade and whether its uphill or downhill. If it was a 90* grade and downhill anyone of us could run it in about 1.5 minutes.
