We may have different definitions of "running".  I ended up only covering about 
2.5 miles in over an hour.  Even at my best, I barely beat a 12 minute mile (8 
minute click). But I specifically chose the K-x and DA40 rather than the K-5 
and 16-50, though I was wishing for faster glass and wishing that the 31 
weren't so large. I barely noticed it's weight in my fannypack, though even 
without the camera the fannypack flopped around a lot more than I like, I need 
to see if one of my others works better.  I ended up just carrying the K-x in 
my hands.
