Out of Shape

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

Getting out of shape really sucks. Why does it suck? If you have been there you know what I mean. For those that have never been out of shape or never been in shape to begin with I will explain why it sucks.

You work really hard to get into shape, you follow a training plan. You dedicate yourself to a diet, training schedule and sacrifice fun with fmaily and friends to stick to both. After hours and hours and weeks and weeks of sweat, tofu, and constantly checking heart rates, you are were you want to be fitness wise, or close to it.

The Lucky Few: Fat Runners, Us Lucky Few

What people of smaller size do not seem to understand, at times, is that running is not always about the competition or the speed. For some of us, it really is about the love of the sport. For some, it is about health and weight loss. For some it is nothing more than a means to burn fat.

Us few, us very lucky few, who really enjoy the sport and not just participating in a competition for trophies or medals. Us lucky few who are proud of also being a fan (possibly even fanatical) at events. We watch the Hawaii Ironman, the Boston Marathon and New York with amazement.
