I admire people who can "go for a run." I run like someone wearing an oversized inflatable dinosaur costume.
... I've been running every few days for the last three months. My knees have only stopped aching in the last 3 weeks I think. I'm starting to see some changes to my weight, so that's motivating me when I'm lying in bed in the morning trying to get myself to go for a run. Running with the doggo has helped a lot, it's good to have a buddy to talk to as I struggle and say things like, I'm gonna have to walk for 5 minutes alright.... I catch myself in a reflection occasionally, I run like someone who looks like their back is really stiff, and someone whose body temperature is maxing out....
