Ever since I came to Sweden, I have been better with this. With working out in general actually. Depending on my other workouts, I go running two or three times a week now. Just a short round around the lake, but better than nothing.
Especially in the mornings it is really gorgeous here. 3 months ago
Last summer, a ran three times a week, and was in pretty good shape. But for some reason, I just stopped. It felt really good to be in shape, and fit and everything. I’d really like that again. I’ll start this weekend, when I know I’ll have time. 4 months ago
I started doing this a year ago. I lost about 10 pounds and the belly fat I had melted away when I started running. I was seeing my doctor at the time and he said he noticed I had slimmed down after a month or so. I stopped when winter started, but started again last week. I plan on going at least twice a week (every other day) and will be going tonight! I know I definitely need to be more active. Running is so great for weight loss. I only go just once round the block, but it still seems to make a difference in how I feel and in my weight too. 6 months ago
Thanks so much for all of the cheers! I wish everyone reading this wonderful luck and lots of energy to meet each of their goals.
So, I’ve made kind of amazing progress with running in the past week or so. Definitely not writing this to pat myself on the back but – instead – to let other people know it can be done. I had gotten to the point of complete couch potato, and it was very, VERY hard to make it to a minute or a minute and a half of running during my first week. Now, in around five weeks of running, I’m running six minutes at a time (3 sets with 1 minute of walking between sets put five minute warm-up, stretching after run, and cool-down.)
I’ve gone from 2.5 minutes at a time to 6 minutes at a time in just the last week, and I’ve done it as my comfort allowed. When I’ve tried to start a running regimen in the past, I always pushed myself in the first weeks. I’d feel awful and defeated during the runs and give up when I couldn’t run three minutes at a time in week two. Now, giving myself those few weeks at the outset to allow my body to get used to this kind of exertion, three minutes seems like nothing and six is comfortable.
I’m still loving the Asics and enjoying running towards evening though making sure I’m safe and visible) or early morning (my fave!). I’ve found running in the evening and having carbs (maybe a bagel) about an hour before I go out to run gives me more energy. My breathing has improved amazingly. Now it’s my legs and (strangely) by abs that are worn out by the end of the run. Now I’m going to be looking into some core work to strengthen those abs and my back… 7 months ago
How I did it: I started out following beginners' walk-run programs from various websites and magazines. I ended up putting my own program together based on what I found from these sources. I started out warming up with 5 minutes of walking, followed by 10 sets of walking 1 minute/running 1 minute, stretching, and a 5 minute cool down. After three weeks of running/walking 5 to 6 days a week, I'm now running 2.5 minutes and walking 1 minute 6 times with the same warm up and cool down. Every few days - as I'm comfortable - I add another thirty seconds of running to each set. I'm gradually building up to twenty solid minutes of running. I will then build to thirty.
