Your options are to spend only 20 minutes on a stationary bike, which is better in many ways: 1. You can use it no matter what the weather is like. 2. You can more easily vary the intensity/hill climbing simulations. 3. Your joints will thank you over the long run. Running on hard surfaces, even while wearing expensive shoes, will eventually result in injuries to your joints. 4. Walk for 30 -45 minutes at a brisk pace when the weather is nice. You'll notice/enjoy more of the scenery, and your joints will last much longer. Also, you absolutely need weight-bearing exercise to maintain sufficient bone density, so set up a mini home gym with dumbbells, bands, a pull up bar, and an adjustable angle flat bench.

Thanks for this, as a runner, it’s easy to get complacent and bargain with yourself to skip a run. Thinking you can always get back to it whenever you want. But those “bargaining days” add up quick! I am there right now and needed this to kick me in the rear. Good to know others go thru this and I am not alone. Time to get my running gear on and get the miles in again! 👍👍

💯 . I had this process down for years. . Retired from Military…. I reached goals…. I didn’t have new ones…..and fell out. . It’s about the process and not the goals. . Have a relationship with the process and the rest will follow. . Good Nutrition, Exercise and better health….nothing can raise your standard of and for living than that. . But, it’s about your worst days that define you. . Those are the days to look forward to eventually…knowing you have the fortitude to push through….or even doubting….but pushing through. . It is not easy, but no one will benefit more than you and those you care to serve. . IMUA! . We got this!

Like the great American Olympic gold medal super heavyweight weightlifter Paul Anderson used to say, he hated every squat he had to do in training for his sport, but he knew that he had to do it to be the best. And so he became known not only for his record setting Olympic lifts at the time (1956 Melbourne, Olympic Games), but also for his mind blowing ability in doing squats. Sometimes you just have to do things you don’t enjoy to achieve something that you dream about.

[@isaacleighninger5976]

People often ask “why do you run?” “That looks like it sucks, why would you enjoy that?” And most of the time I give a basic “I don’t know, I guess I’m just crazy like that” answer But for me it’s far deeper than that I run not because it’s fun or because it’s easy, it’s far from either of those. Long runs in the early morning when your legs are ready to give up and stop moving. When the sweat from 100°+ heat radiating off of the track is stinging your eyes. When after a run all you want to do is go to sleep and rest forever. No. It sucks most of the time. That’s why I run. Because the pain of doing something that no one forced you to do teaches you more about yourself than you’ll otherwise never know. Because setting a goal and going beyond what you think you can do is far more rewarding than taking the easy way in life and being comfortable. I run for the hurt. The struggle. The pure pain of being 10 miles from home having to run back or walk back. I’d rather get home faster. So I run. That’s why I run. I run for the sunrises at the top of mountains that the rest of the world is dreaming about but I get to see for real. I run for the feeling of community when running with others who aren’t afraid to work. These trails that I run are my home. These roads that I run are where I belong. The distance is my destination. I will keep going. That’s why I run. I run for those that can’t. Those that wished they were able to put one foot in front of the other but are unable. I run for the kid who is battling an illness or disease that has taken the ability to run from them. I run for the student who is too stressed and overwhelmed with life that they are unable to get out of bed and pursue the thing they worked so hard to achieve. I run for those who can’t. That’s why I run. I run because the world needs to be explored and running is the most visceral form of travel. You’re alone. Often too cold or too hot. It’s either blindingly bright or pitch black. There’s nothing but you and your steps. You and your thoughts…..And the world. No one to tell you to keep going. No flashy finish line or participation award. No sorry excuse for not completing your mission. Just you. So all you can do is run. That’s why I run. I’ve learned to be broken yet still making progress. I’ve learned that I can deal with pain and loneliness out on some random trail. I tell myself “just don’t stop for one more step” and soon enough I’m at the top of whatever mountain seemed too daunting several miles earlier. I run for the peace it brings me. That’s why I run. I run because God has gifted my body with a desire to push beyond what is comfortable and easy. I want to reach the limit. Well, I have reached my limit. I just ignore it and keep going. I run to give thanks for the body that I’ve been blessed with. As if to say “Lord, thanks you for what you’ve given me. I will not die having wasted it.” My runs are a long prayer. A long conversation which contains no spoken words. Just a silent conversation between a mortal frame and the eternal provider, Jesus Christ. I speak with my thoughts and worship in my heart, forgetting most of the pain that I mentioned before. It’s not chasing a high. It’s chasing the one on high. I’m not seeking validation. I’m seeking a connection to my God that only comes from being broken beyond you could imagine. When your physical frame fails and your spiritual existence is either gonna encourage you to keep going or is going to destroy all hope of completing your run. It’s deeper than you think. That’s why I run. All in all, my runs are my home. My runs draw me closer to God and who He created me to be. I will keep going. I will keep climbing. I will keep putting one foot in front of the other. “Just one more step” or “one more mile”. Because if this gift is something that I can use to point my life and others to Christ, why would I want to give anything but 100%. It’s not my life. God gave it to me. I’m gonna run after Him. That. Is why I run.

For me it's been making sure I do my daily walk, every morning, after a really bad injury that's taken me years to recover from because I have FSH Muscular Dystrophy at 42 years old. I was in the hospital and intermediate and acute rehab units for almost 6 months after the injury. Then I couldn't even walk with a walker for the first year after the accident. Then I finally got strong enough to start walking with a walker, and as of this year, I'm feeling close to being able to switch to a cane or maybe no aid at all (aside from ankle AFOs). Most importantly - as of April, I finally made the commitment to myself - including setting the incremental goals on paper(screen) - to walk every day, increasing my daily steps by 30 with the target of 7500 steps per day by October, and mapping out the planned steps per day for every week between now and October. I am presently falling short of the 7500 steps per day by October goal by about 75%, but even with that huge shorfall, the committed daily walking, since April this year, has been the foundation of getting my life back, and it's helping bring me back to life in many ways (even beyond where it was before the injury). The amazing thing I found about mapping out the incremental goals on paper, basically making several months worth of weekly walking schedules, is that after doing that it felt like it was no longer up to me, it's out of my hands. It's like my best self has decided how it is to be, and now it's just something I have to do, like this video emphasizes. It's a great place to be!
