I am so Out of Shape
 

Not sure if anyone cares, but it made me feel bad.

Okay, well this morning I decided to go running because I haven't trained in a while and I thought I was getting a little out of shape. I was waayyy more than a little out of shape. I started jogging and I totally ran out of breath just a little before a 1/4 mile.
I never considered myself in tip top best condition, but I use to be able to run a mile pretty good.
Now it feels like I got a long way to go just to get the way I was before.:(

Haha...anything to motivate me more.

close to 1/4 mile??? that's not even a full lap around the track!!!!

you weakling!!!! :fight:

:squint fi :crying:

Thanks for making me feel better about it.

Isn't 30 laps a mile?

wtf are you talking about, the indoor track at the rec center????

1 full lap at a full-size 400m track is 1/4 mile....

My bad, I was thinking about a basketball court.

its worse when you go to a friends house with kids and get
tired just watching the kids run around all day.

OK, 1st, shouldn't this be in the Racing section?

2nd, we can't really discuss anything until you provide numbers: How many footpounds of torque did you develop and what was your Time (Don't make me raise the BS Flag!)

3rd, are you non-aspirated, and were you huffing nitrous?

4th, as you willfully admit, you are NOT a racer, so why bother? This isn't about straight-line speed, but rather, enjoying the curves...

Now that all this is settled: Good luck!

lmao!

whip it! into shape!

I just started my membership at the Y yesterday, I am freaking sore today. I'm in decent shape, but I am way too lazy, so I decided to join. Luckily for me they had 50% special on their swanky membership, it works out to about $30/month... Not too bad.

I ran a mile to warm up and did chest exercises last night, I can barely move my arms today. Today it my day off lifting, so if I go, I'm going to go run and then do maybe some ab stuff. I dunno, I'll probably just be lazy and say F it. :D

I am trying to get in shape too but I am not that fa. I just need to build on what I already have.

I am way out of shape
I try to work out in my house
using everyday appliances(book bag filled with books)
using a pillow, and practing hitting it (pretty fun)

once the weather is better, i will begin running outside
but if i make a mile, i will make a special thread about it:D :firehair:

I run track at my school and we practice 6 days a week. I run miles every day. It isn't that difficult, and I wouldn't say I am in excellent shape either. My last timed mile was 6:27.9, but I'm a sprinter so it's allowed to be that bad :p I run the short races, 100M, 200M and 400M (which sucks A LOT). You guys have any times to share?
