go running

we’ve been going walking around the pond. its 3 miles. does that count?

I don’t think i’ll ever mark off “go running” off my list.
Because its something I have to overcome everyday before i actually do go running.

Anyone who can’t, or see it an impossible goal. Just do it. Just go. even its for 5 min. Just do it.

The end result of being able to run a mile in 10 mins is worth it.

your sexy baby :p

thats not happening any time soon now that its winter. boston is cold

After trying a couple of times and thinking about it a lot, I’m afraid I’ll have to put this on my list as NO. I just don’t have the physique and stamina to go running, along with a hip and flat-feet-muscles that start aching after a while.

I find it a pity, because I think that if I should be able to go running, it might help me clear my mind often and keep me healthy. But I think I best keep it to other sports (like my indoor climbing). Hearing my colleagues speak about how long and often they go running does make me jealous, but there is nothing to it. Running is just not my sport.

If you read this and were thinking of trying to go running, please do try it. If you can follow it through, I’m sure it will be very rewarding in health both mentally as physically!

My running shoes have not been out of my closet for weeks! I just don’t find the courage to go and run, always being disappointed at how quickly I’m tired and all. The idea is still there, mostly because I want to do more sports!

It’s not working, it’s not succeeding, I won’t be able to do this, I really can’t run, this won’t work, aaaaaah…

Two days past already and I completely forgot to go running today. Aaargh!

In April a couple of my colleages ran in a contest (for fun) and I went to cheer them on. It looked like hell, but at the same time it looked so much fun to be able to talk about it afterwards and all. So I thought I’d start running, build it up gradualy and all. But it was not as easy as I had hoped it would be. And adding the fact that I never have the courage to run during the week, building up was rather impossible too.

But now I have two weeks of vacation, so the plan is to go run as often as I can in these two weeks and build up as much as possible, so that I can have the courage to run in the week too. I just find it so silly to go run in streets when you have to stop every minute to catch your breath.

Today, I went for the first time again, not checking the time or so, and I just did my best. If my legs allow me, I’ll go again tomorrow and hope that in 14 days, I’ll be running longer each time.

I used to be good at exercising regularly and I’d like to pick up that habit again. That way I can use the treadmill I purchased (feeling like that purchase was worth it) and get in shape (which will make me enjoy the summer better and help me with the 3-Day Walk)

I’ve been running a couple of times during the last weeks and it feels really good… You get a free mind, you can feel the blood running through your veins, and of course it helps you to lose weight too… But it takes a lot of surmounting to do… Now it’s getting too cold for me to run outside (I’m not that much into it yet), but I might go running in the gym, and definitely again next spring!

One piece of advice for beginners: don’t try too hard at the beginning! I started by running for 30 sec, then walking 30 sec, for 30 minutes altogether, and that does a better job than just running as fast as you can for 20 minutes…
