  • Listen to everything already said in this thread it is spot on accurate. And listen to your body too. Bits of you will ache that you never imagined (but in a good way, trust me!). I had the same adjustment from cycling to running. I imagined I was quite fit as I put a lot of miles in on my bike, but you use different bits…
    in Beginner runner (C25K) - question about pain Comment by cmk5444 April 2017
  • Hello (incoming brain dump, apologies if it is stuff you already know!) I started running last August. I love it. Things I picked up?

  • I'm the same height as you, reached just over the same weight. But I am male and twice your age (nearly!) and now about 60kg. As others said: Time. I have exactly the same issue. I have a flappy bit of loose stomach "flesh" that needs tightening. I just keep going and try and eat at a caloric deficit. I hope it will…

  • Thank you for the must reads. Apologies for the forum vomit styling. I wrote out a long list of questions. Stuff I already know the answer to. No point posting those, it's a waste of everyone's time. Reflecting on where I am, what I am doing, where I want to be: Question! How do I break this mindset I have developed? I…
