Super impressive friend. Great work 
I find itās good to switch things up from time to time so your body doesnāt get used to the moves. Whatever you decide I know youāll kick ass. Excellent way to close out July

Had a good quality 10k last night. The pace came early on and I just stuck with it. I knew it wasnāt doing my hamstring any good but I felt good on it at the time.
35k in the last few days with a 10 mile bike thrown in for good measure.
I need to rest for 2 or 3 days as I want to run a half marathon on Saturday night. Weather is pretty decent at the minute and I want to do a late night run in it. Weāll see how goes.

7km run. High temperature is not making it easy. Note to myself: stick to early morning runs.

I used to be super into fitness. I had probably annoyed everyone with how into it i was, meeting new goals and how nervous I used to be about changing up my workout splits. I get upset at where I am now, how I got here now. This wasnāt eons ago, this was like 6 months ago! But it feels like a life time has passed since I could even do basic mobility exercises for my warm up routine and now I am hurting just thinking of them. I have this problem where I want to be lifting and moving how I used to, this impatience burns me, but what weighs me down is my shame. On top of not working out, getting on new meds, and becoming sober, I feel I have been mindlessly eating (without appetite). I am tired of feeling so gross and my chronic pain is back, worse than before. I used to have a desire, be so excited every day, so grateful to be mobile and now I canāt get myself out of this pity shithole. I want to want to againā¦ I miss having the discipline - doing things even without feeling the desire to do so. Guess I just gotta get over myself even if I have to get back to the basicsā¦ Being eyeing this thread since late June. Itās time!
thanks for the space!

Thank u being so open and real about where ur at! I can relate to ur post sooo much. For a decade or so i was into fitness and nutrition. Was probably the healthiest ive ever been outside of the drug use. But then i got clean and i was fatigued all the time, eating mindlessly, eating to cope with stress, boredom etc. Got back on meds and just stopped exercising and i gained quite a bit of wieght. Its only been the past 6 months or so that i began taking my health seriously again. But boy was getting started again rough. I took baby steps and began working out a bit at a time. As much as i wanted to get back to lifting and doing cardio the way i did before, i just had to start somewhere Glad ur on this thread with us! Hope to see u posting more!
