[QUOTE="Kmart Kommando, post: 3800099, member: 39915"] Your Con determines your overall health. Your example means that running makes you less healthy. :confused: Even pushed to the point in which your muscles no longer respond to your commands, you're still in the same shape, health-wise, you were when you started the day. Not to mention the fact that a lvl 1 commoner, a person who worked, for example, on a farm all his life will die after running for a minute or two? Having a cumulative penalty to running checks makes it harder to push yourself. It is built into the system. Contrary to what some people may think, running is not some Con-damaging, life-threatening disease. ;) Actually, the military uses 1.5 miles, and the 'older-than-dirt' time requirements are around 16 minutes. 20-25 was about 14 minutes. The test also includes before running: reaching your toes while sitting, legs extended, up to 67 sit ups, up to 67 push ups, for maximum scoring. I can't remember the minimums, but they're around 30ish. [/QUOTE]
