I Am a Runner

[c=#7700B2]for the past 2 weeks I have been waking up around 4am and going on runs. So I just worked out that the route I have been doing is about 2 and a half kilometres. So considering I thought I was at least doing 1 kilometre, that is pretty awesome.

Gotta say out of all the exercise I have done before, this has made me feel the best. screw Yoga and all the other stuff I have been doing for years.
I used to absolutely hate running but now for some reason really enjoy it and I am aiming to get this runners high that I have heard so much about.
boring post I know but felt like writing it as I am proud of myself for actually trying something I once hated with a passion and now really enjoying it[/c]

@Beardedguy [c=#7700B2]I haven't been able to do it for almost a week now. I hurt my leg badly somehow while doing it and have had to rest it as much as possible. hopefully in a few days I can start it again..
I hope you get back into it if that is what you want :)[/c]

[c=#7700B2]thanks. it is getting much better and I am not walking with a huge weird limp anymore lol so all good..

I would think losing weight would be great motivation to keep it up lol but I get the being busy part [/c]

Yeah im glad plum ☺☺ yeah it was great but yeah its sucks i used to get up at 4am everyday and go the gym

PlumBerries · 31-35, F

[c=#7700B2]did you enjoy that time? I liked doing it at first but with insomnia I stay awake at real weird times and it takes ages for me to fall asleep, so some nights I would get like 30 mins of sleep and my alarm would start.. hard to want to get out of bed at such a early time I guess.. motivation is well needed[/c]

Beardedguy · 31-35, M

Yeah i did it was nice and quiet ni judging eyes ha, it sure is hard sometimes ☺

PlumBerries · 31-35, F

[c=#7700B2]that is what I hate about gyms. it feels like everyone is watching you[/c]

Beardedguy · 31-35, M
