I completed the Guts and Glory Virtual Run today, even though I have not completed my 5K training. I completed the 5K in 58:24 minutes.
The Cause
The Guts and Glory Virtual Run sends all proceeds to the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America. It uses that money for research and providing information to the sufferers and their families of these diseases.
We walked almost the entire race but did so at a brisk pace (probably about 4 MPH) but needed to take many stops to discipline the puppy and keep him from lunging at other runners, walkers, and bikers.
Peak heart rate about 130 BPM. Average heart rate about 120 BPM. Not a very hard run/work out but it worked great as puppy exercise and training.
