So..... running

[Tak]

I managed 7 minutes of (stupidly stupidly slow) jogging on a treadmill today without going arse over tit!!!! like I normally do
I found that if I stare solidly at the timer then I don't get the dizzy feeling (the only thing I can think of describing it as is motion sickness)
I have no idea what the numbers are measurements of but I did 5 minutes at 3.6 and 2 minutes at 4 and then I looked up and fell off

Oh...my trousers were falling down and I kept getting static shocks from the machine too

Stick at it Sam It'll get easier the more you do and then you can slowly up the pace and distance.

I managed to get back down the gym last night Eased myself back in to the running with a 3km in 19:35. Wish I'd gone for longer but once I'd stopped running I can't get going again.

Thanks I know it isn't much and it might seem daft but as every time I've tried before I've ended up falling off/hurting myself/breaking something, it is a big deal to me to manage even what I did

Well done Sam! I know what you mean about staring... I stare at the numbers too.. I can't look at my reflection in the mirror as I fall over and some days am really wobbly

I feel like I'm counting down numbers most of my life! Saying that, I haven't been in the gym much recently as its been too sweaty - been going for runs after work instead...outdoors is much better when its nice weather of course!

Keep up the good work!

Well done Sam.

Back to my 5k tonight again

Don't think I'll be breaking any records after my tie away but I'll get close enough.

Did my 5km last night and a little time in thought I'd go for my best time....then realised I was on course for under 30 minutes....then missed that by 7 seconds

Next time you bastard, next time.

Going to try and go to the gym tonight and if it is empty I might have another try on the treadmill

After I saw your correction I was all geared up to try but the whole time I was there, all 3 treadmills were in use :/ Wondering if people are training for something because I swear I have never seen more than 2 in use at any one time before :/
