Whats up ladies, lads, and nonbinary comrades? Last week I said I was gonna start a couch to 5k program today and thats exactly what I did. It was rough but itll take awhile to undo three years of pretty much nonstop couch life.
What were your running successes and failures this week? Any funny/weird stories? How are you holding up?
Remember, its never too late to start! Ill do my best to reply to all the comments in this thread with encouragement.
For those that care about astrology, apparently now is the time to start something new with the conjuction going on. Might be a convenient excuse start running.
Running on a calorie deficit makes me feel so weak. It’s quite uncomfortable. I guess it’s something I power through, though. The whole time I’m thinking to myself how far away the end of the run is. It’s just not that fun.
I guess it just highlights the importance of having a solid, tangible goal. It’s not like I have a motivation muscle to make stronger, I’m as motivated as I need to be to put in the work.
Oof, sounds like a rough time. Remember that it will get easier the more you stick with it, and soon your runs will be less of a slog and your calorie deficit wont even feel like a deficit anymore. Keep working hard, comrade, and try to stay positive when you can! If you need motivation or support, Ill be here!
