Yeah, week 5 is where shit gets realCoffeeDrive wrote:Currently ran through the first 4 weeks with ease, onto w5 d1 Friday. Apparently its a killer week when you jump to 21mn straight.
Feels damn good when you finish that 21 minuter for the first time though... you know, right after your calves calm down! Keep at it, you're doing well!
Tell me about it; my back is splotchy all over. Congrats on the steps, though!metalangel wrote:Downside: it's getting hot out there, and I think I've got heat rash. Damn.
Damn, I am kinda envious. I skipped two days last week because it was FUCKING +5 DEGREES CENTIGRADE IN FUCKING MAY. WHAT THE FUCK.metalangel wrote:Downside: it's getting hot out there...
Congrats! How does it know how many steps you've taken, does it work in the same way as a pedometer?metalangel wrote:Checked my 3DS activity log today and found that three weeks ago I passed one million steps! Took me just over a year.
) - was getting major wedgie after about 20 minutes -_- Aside from that, was a good run, feel pretty happy to increase it

Trust me mate, it will be hard for a while... but you look back on the Week One rota and you will realise how piss easy it looks.basmimarsinan wrote:Started running after about a year without any exercise; it was awful. I feel rusty all over. I had difficulties even though it was just W1D1. Having eaten before the run made it even worse. Hope it gets better soon.
Like stupid, silly doodles with no point? You've come to the right place, friend :^)
I also occasionally write oneshots. Why not have a skimread?
Checking in, still alive in 2024!

But at least you've started, and that's always the hard bit. Just keep it up, and I promise you'll come to enjoy it (Or at least accept it!)True story. It was ridiculous in the beginning (I got so tired that I even took a day off), but now it just doesn't look serious. I stopped running in september '13, started again 3 weeks ago, right from the fourth week, now I'm running 10/3/10 getting ready to increase it - and my body returned to this schedule without problems.Munchenhausen wrote: Trust me mate, it will be hard for a while... but you look back on the Week One rota and you will realise how piss easy it looks.

That can really help. It's weird, running can be super exhilarating, but sometimes the hardest part of a long run is just honestly having the patience to keep your mind busy with something for the full time.Gamera Ramen wrote:Went for a 15/3/15 today. I can't believe I'm saying this but I almost got kinda bored about 11 minutes into the first half. Maybe I need to seriously switch up my music? I dunno.
I think, as long as it isn't stupidly complex in how it's composed or as long as you can use it as a way to keep your mind busy, it's no problem - I've gone running to Shostakovich one day, and then to Cephalic Carnage for the next oneForever_ambivalent wrote:It probably won't matter if I listen to classical music right?
It's just that I don't like the majority of the music that is used for these runs.
What would you consider to be out of shape? I swim for about 30 minutes a week nonstop and I play badminton for an hour a week as well but that's all the exercise I really do.
Will start doing this during the summer holidays. I have been planning on doing some runs over the summer holiday and this looks to be a stable running routine.
Well, the main thing I've learned from making my playlists is that music should be around 150-160 bpm and reflect your running and breathing speed. This way music actually helps you. Music with uneven BPM, like Cephalic Carnage gonna break your breathing or heartbeat rhythm, so I'd advise to refrain from it.AaronIsCrunchy wrote:I think, as long as it isn't stupidly complex in how it's composed or as long as you can use it as a way to keep your mind busy, it's no problem - I've gone running to Shostakovich one day, and then to Cephalic Carnage for the next one
