Today, I had to run a mile in gym class for fitness training. If it takes longer than 10 minutes to run the stretch, you have to re-take it. My time was 10:02. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I ran the mile in gym class. I was the second to last person to finish, and I was left panting and feeling faint. When the teacher found out I hadn't come in dead last, he accused me of skipping a lap and is now making me rerun the entire thing. FML
Today, I had to run a timed mile. I'm terrible at running. During the run, I thought I was doing a good job. That is, until the teacher told me to stop because I was three laps behind everyone else. FML
Today, my entire gym class had to run the 1600 with our coach calling out finishing times. My finishing time was reported as "3 days short of a year." FML
Today, I had to rush to school to avoid being late. Unfortunately, I forgot to put a bra on beforehand, and as soon as I got to gym class, the first thing my teacher said was: "Okay folks, let's get outside, we're running the mile." FML
Today, I did a sprint in gym class. Despite being the skinniest in the class, I ran slower than everyone else, including two morbidly obese people. FML
Today, trying to get into shape because I run out of breath after walking more than 30 minutes, I started to hit the gym. Too bad my legs didn’t want to cooperate and decided that it would cause limping-worthy pain for every step I took on the treadmill. FML
Today, I ran a mile for my gym class. While I managed to cut two minutes off my time, a few minutes later I felt dizzy and nauseous, which I thought was because I pushed myself too hard. I collapsed and vomited in front of everyone. Not a single person moved to help me. Not even the teacher. FML
Today, I had my first day of soccer tryouts. We began with a two mile run. Trying to be honest for once, I didn't lie about my time. Everyone else did. I thus got the worst score, and had to run it again. FML
Today, I got to sports practice 30 seconds late and got kicked out for "poor time management". FML
Today, after the longest time, I went to the gym. I ran and ran and ran on the treadmill for an eternity, beating myself up for getting so overweight. Then I tripped and fell off, sweating and sobbing for being so useless. When I looked up, I saw I'd been on the machine for barely 2 minutes. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

not trying to back on you, but 10 mins is a long time to run a mile. I bet you can speed walk it in 10

everyone can run a mile in under ten minutes. how tall you are has little to actually do with it. it's a matter of effort....period. when I was in high school running a mile and a half in twelve minutes damn near killed me. but after working at for a SHORT while and a LITTLE bit of effort I can now run three miles in 19 minutes flat. all I am hearing are excuses. a person 's ability is only limited by the amount of effort they put out and how driven they are.

269- you're right how dare some one be held to some sort of standard. A majority of America is obese as is let's keep lowering the bar until we are all at risk for a heart attack or diabetes. Why challenge any one to strive for better? now before you try and rip me apart as an asshole. I am sympathetic to your friend from high school. but there is a big difference, she tried.... that is what matters and if she kept running she would be able to achieve that time. I am just sick of hearing people making excuses for why they can't do something because of laziness and then demand the rest of us change to accommodate their lack of interest in life.

288--Hey, did you know there's absolutely no connection between being obese and being able to run a mile in under 10 minutes? For example, I am very very very far from obese (if I lost 10 pounds I'd be underweight), but it's debatable if I would even have the stamina to run a mile at all. My mom, in the other hand, is overweight and a runner (don't know her times, but definitely less than 10 minutes, probably 6 or 7, but I'm guessing...she rarely only runs a mile, she prefers distance running). And also, what right do you have to care how fast someone runs, unless you're a track coach and the people you're judging are your team?
