im off to the gym in a min as its chucking it down. im really just not getting into running at all - ive been at it 12 weeks now and still cant manage 5k - i just have to stop after about 20 mins.
i feel so slow and such a carthorse - im top end of my ideal BMI so probably not great, but after 12 weeks of running and weights training ive not lost a single pound. i eat sensibly though dont diet. i go to the gym 4 or 5 times a week, and do one body pump class per week.
will this ever get any better? or should i just forget running and try something else?
ive got my second stab at the fitness test coming up so really need to work on general fitness and upper body strength. i could do with a massive kick up the arse tbh....please feel free to spur me on!
im struggling with the push -/pull test - have had hypnotherapy and i have to imagine a whole crowd of people cheering me on! please feel free to virtually cheer me!
thanks and any tips on keeping running would be gratefully received! ta!
