The slowest mile I ever ran was 7 minutes and I was in Elementary School lol. I guess I've never been overweight and I have always naturally been quite quick
So the last time you attempted to run a mile was somewhere around 15 years ago? Your opinion is invalid.
I too think the running part sounds easy, though I fall under a different category for recreational activities than most.
I know your activities tend to be high intensity cardio so that probably wouldn't be a problem for you. Us fatties look at running a mile with fear and trepidation. I'm in the gym 3-5 times a week and i'll run .5 to 1 mile every time i'm there and average about a 10 minute mile give or take 30 second and I fucking hate it. Cardio is not my strength. I'll bench 375 then squat 400+ in the same workout but ask me to run for an extended period of time and i'll laugh at you.

So we were going to travel back to Wausau area Saturday morning so I loaded up the Volvo and was checking the tires. I noticed a bulge in the right front tire and thought well not that big of a deal I will double check the spare to make sure it's aired up if I need it. I mentioned it to my wife and she said oh yea I did hit a pothole last time I drove it but it seemed fine the rest of the way home. So already running late we took off. As soon as I turned out of the driveway I could tell it was not right at all, alignment way off and nasty shake. It was undriveable except to get home. How is that not totally obvious? The alignment was perfect and the steering wheel centered before and now it is obviously crooked and if you hold the wheel straight the car violently veers to the left.
Awesome, so I need either a control arm or tie rods that I just replaced within the last 1000 miles. And new tires. i was planning to sell it with the existing tires and let a new owner pick what they want but I can't do that now. Does FCP Euro offer free replacement for stuff you break or only if it wears out?
So I did manage to stuff 3 car seats in the coupe and took that, no problems besides adding a quart of oil. Ticked over 286k on the way home.

I believe that they’ll replace it regardless. At least that was the impression I got from reading into their policies.

You can replace literally anything they sell if you sent it back, or buy new ones and they'll refund you.
Brake pads, oil, filters, people ask on their Facebook page all the time and they always tell them to go for it.Any time I needed to replace something it was super easy.

If you want me to print this, I could do it (without the light blue).
It'd also be the most layered vinyl printed shirt I've ever done. Price from me would be $25 shipped on a heather gray Gildan tee. That doesn't include a cut to Mr Bassboy.
I'm happy to make it happen if you guys (and Bassboy) are down!

My freshman year of HS I ran a mile in 9minutes. Never was a fast or runner at all.

I crawled a mile in 9 minutes once... Oh wait, that was in my college days in Madison. I think it was probably 9 feet in an hour. Seemed like a damn mile!

Why no light blue? Too infringement-like?

The color has nothing to do with infringement. This whole design/BMW logo itself is copyrighted and it's a no-no to sell it either way.
With that said, I don't do screen printing. I use heat-adhesive vinyl and each color requires another process/layer. I don't have light blue in stock and don't want to buy vinyl just for this (and it'd drive the price up).

I have a pt test for my part time gig and I have a little different test first 40 push-ups in 2 minutes then 50 sit-ups in 2 minutes finally 2 miles in 16min 30sec. They do change it for age group and also for females "due to sociological differences."
last year I ran it in a little over 13 min, I was 21 so idk if it counts.
