Running

Cheers
Been tracking with MFP for over 10 years, my preferred way to stay on top of my health. This time around I’m adding running to my routine. Running 5days-rest-5- rest … is my goal.

Distance runner with goals!
I doubt anyone will read this lol but I’d love some new friends that are runners too! I’ve been trying to qualify for the Boston marathon for 4 years now and I’ve come so close every time. I’ve broken both of my tibias twice, I’ve had a baby and recovered and got back running, and I struggle with 3 autoimmune diseases…

Running Tips?
Hi, I’m Kiwi. I’m a 24 year old female who works at a desk job for 8 hours a day. Since I’ve worked at this job, I’ve gained 32lbs making me 282lbs now. I’ve decided I want to start running for cardio, just to slim down. Is there a method to the madness? How do you run and not get tired? Is a “runner’s high” a real thing?…
Hello from Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania
I hope this app and community can help me accomplish my weight loss goals. Funny… when I log into myfitnesspal it tells me that I do not have any friends :D
A second start
Greetings everyone. I was in the best shape of my life from 39-42 and a combination of Covid, mental health triggers, medication adjustments, addiction and depression put me back to, not square one, but down a few pegs on my fitness journey. I’m 46 now, running again, and using this app to remind me that I still have…

Garmin watch for tracking?
Hi everyone, I have been considering getting a Garmin watch to replace my fitbit bit but I have a couple questions. If you have a garmin watch, how has it been for tracking your running and other fitness activities? Have you had issues connecting it to my fitness pal? How has your watch held up?

Hip/thigh stretches for runners? Or exercises?
After a few years of running with zero stretching (yes, bad, I know :tongue: ) I'm starting to get some minor complaints. Not while running, but in daily life. My hips can be a bit stiff (especially my right side) and my range of motion is quite poor. My squat depth is ludicrous without propping my heels up. Butterfly pose…

Couch to 5K (C25K) beginners group
Anyone recently started C25K? I completed the program in 2016 and it was great. I was running 30/40 minutes 3x a week non stop for over a year after, so I know it works! Starting again after not running for years and it’s like I’ve never ran in my life. Was it this hard to start last time?😰 Just completed W1D2 today with…
Hello 👋 MyFitnessPal

Hello from Belgium
Hello guys, I've started to use MFP a week ago after I tried other apps that didn't meet my expectations. And here I am ! It's been a few weeks now that I pay attention to my food and 2 weeks that I run with a group of runners. It seems to work ! I've decided to change my appearance during a festival where I could not be…
Marathon Training and feeling depleted- tips?
Hello I'm feeling like I must be doing something wrong. I'm frequently feeling that "bonk" feeling during training lately on my runs. I tried scaling back intensity and am only weight lifting 2 days/week in the gym so as to not overtrain. However, I am noticing I am struggling with even easier workouts like a steady state…
I’ve been off and on here
I went into my closest the other day and realized I don’t fit into a lot of my clothes that I used to. I understand that’s normal and that’s life. But in this economy I cannot afford to buy a whole new wardrobe. Therefore, that is my main motivation that I need to lose 25lbs. ( it was 30 but I already lost 5lbs yay!! But…
All progress crashing down
Hi people. I am currently on a 30 day vacation here in China. I'm struggling to keep in shape and keep my mindfulness and discipline. There is close to no healthy food available as my grandma always makes the most oily and carb high food (noodles, dumplings, etc) It is very hot here in China as there was just a heat wave…
Help! - Couch to 5km/ Fitbit distance issue
I started using the couch to 5km app and also wear my Fitbit when I run. It’s been a few weeks and I have only been using the app and then just recently started tracking the run with my Fitbit as well and found out that they have a 1km discrepancy between them! Maybe even a bit over… I was shocked and super discouraged. I…

Foot numbness/aching from running
In the past few days, my foot has been aching and I have numbness on the outside sole, near the pinky toe. X-ray showed nothing unusual. Doctor declared it plantar fasciitis. It's a bit of a catch-all for every non-specific foot problem. I read that it's unusual to have numbness associated with it. Anyone else gotten…

Anime Run?
Has anyone here done the anime run for fitness? Does it make you go faster? Does it give you better stamina? Will I be more aerodynamic? Will I be able to do rasengan? Just a silly post :blush:
