Just a general thread about running. How’s your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

Been running 3x a week as religously as possible since maybe May. I’m using an app called Just Run which is designed to slowly build you up to doing a nonstop a 5k. I’ve really taken my time with it and have just reached the point where I’m actually getting into the 5k sessions which feels great. I’ve also gotten back into a consistent weightlifting regime, so overall this is probably the best I’ve heen taking care of myself since high school.
I don’t have a particular goal besides sticking to it and skipping as few exercises as possible/forcing myself to do it even when I don’t feel like it. It would be cool to graduate to some 10k’s maybe before the new year though.
This sounds awesome dude. Taking it slow is a great move - really helps to prevent injuries. Once you get to 5k, I think you’ll find the hurdle to 10k is lower than the initial hurdle of 5.
