Now I got to start running again and get in shape. Which is all good since I do need to lose weight and training to do a 10k race should really help me lose some weight.Sounds exciting. Keep us posted on your progress.
Well I did just got for a run...or more like a walk run. I find it best to run some, walk some and back and forth when starting out. Not trying to win any records but be able to perform reasonably well by July. I did go about 4 miles which in all in all isn't bad given I haven't done any running in 2 years since once the pandemic started I went all Häagen-Dazs and sat on my ass.
The good news is that I have managed to lose 15 lbs (6.8 kg) since last fall, bad news is that I really need to lose 50 lbs / 22.6 kg. I do think it is possible, before the pandemic I had lost 43 lbs...I just have to start over.
So here we go yoyo'n again lol
