Ha ha, that's about the only way I'll ever lap anyone - if they were standing still, or sitting down! πŸ˜„

Wow, thankyou for posting this! I am doing this all on my treadmill and am running at a pace that I usually walk on and kind of felt like I was cheating! But the article is right. Its not about how fast you can run, its all about completing the tasks. Feel so much better for reading this so thanks again!
