Be honest, when you see fat people running?

[22O725]

When you see an overweight person out running what do you think? As a morbidly obese person I always used to admire their confidence and ability. I am now an overweight person (size 16) and I still feel like the size 24 I once was. I feel like everyone is looking at me and thinking ‘look at the state of her’.

Do you judge fat runners badly or do you think ‘well done’?

Also from that simple article:

"Running increases the load on two specific parts of the knees. The load on the major tendon of the quadriceps muscles (the patella tendon) is anything from 4.7 to 6.9 times your body weight. As you run, the compression forces on the knee cap (patella-femoral joint) can be anywhere from 7 to 11.1 times your body weight."

Which is why it is not the ideal way to exercise if you are significantly overweight.

Theres that many runners that go past my house i dont even think about them.
If I had to think about a fat runner it would be, 'they are doi g better than me' ive never been good at ru ing abd now I want to I can't because of my prolapse.
