JellyBelly 1 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Don't give up The Orange. It will get easier. Always hard at first after not going out. Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Running that much Tubby and you will be Skinny Beaver you will feel pretty good though Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Yeah I've been feeling good.....definitely fitter than at this time last year Link to post Share on other sites

grungy-gonads 54 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Out of the person riding at that silly time and Tubby, Tubby seems the far more sensible! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

sapporo 8 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I lose too then, because I cycled past this mystery man whilst on my way to work! Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I've just started again this year, after five and a half months off. 8.4km, a full 10 minutes slower than my best time! Still, April 17 is by far the earliest I've ever started in the year, and 8.4 is the furthest I've ever run as my starting distance. My course has a 90m climb in it, so I'm feeling it now.

griller 9 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Back to bikes, I ordered one online with a little help from a Japanese friend. Wasn't a huge amount of choice but found one, did a search for bike shops. I think it was on rakuten. Link to post Share on other sites

Thundercat 60 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I haven't had time these days to do too much longer distance stuff. Usually 3-5kms a few times a week. I've been doing interval training though and it seems to be making a difference. I do 100km/week on my bicycle commuting to and from work to make up for the lack of jogging!

snowdude 44 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 My pop into a bicycle shop if I go to Kofu tomorrow and see what is about that I like the look of. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I ran about 30 metres today. I was pretty proud of myself. Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I beat you with a magnificent 1km. Terrible condition I have realised. Must do something. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I went out for a walk/jog last night. I'd say it was perhaps 50/50. Got to start somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites
sapporo 8 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 My bolts in the wrist have put an end to my jogging for a while. Was gonna enter the Otaru marathon in June....out of the question now. Have to wait and do the Sapporo marathon again in October Link to post Share on other sites
seemore 66 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I ran to the bottle shop last night from my car exhausting (it was raining) Have no problems riding 40Klm's and swimming 4 Klm's but running hurts obviously it is better for you Link to post Share on other sites
egglesby 1 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I haven't tried jogging for years. Perhaps I should give it a go. Link to post Share on other sites
TheOrange 0 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Just about getting back into it, and mixing it up with bike. Much prefer the bike. Jogging takes more out of you though, presumably more calories too. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Didn't jog at all today but I did plant more than 600 plants and am feeling pretty buggered. Link to post Share on other sites
TheOrange 0 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 How's everyone getting on? Slowly improving, bit by bit. Link to post Share on other sites
