one knows where to begin. This is similar to a


student looking for his/her classroom with a
map at hand. The first thing he/she needs to
know is where he/she is on the map. It is
important that a person gets baseline
information on his current fitness level so he
can orient himself on how far he is from his
goal.
The One Mile Run is a
