FiftyShades Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Hey, I'm new to... all of this. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I did join a gym, sign up for their 90 day transformation challenge and both a half and full marathon.... I'm overwhelmed. I know running is important, but no idea what else. I'm around 33% body fat and am hoping to drop down to about 20-22%. I think. Really I just want to be able to run an entire 5k trail. I want to be able to keep up with my hounds and friends. I'm running about 15-25 miles a week now, but hills are lethal. I'm hoping strength training will help with all of this. That's my introductory I-have-no-idea-what-I'm-doing spiel! Quote Link to comment
spoonymog Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Hi and welcome. Good luck on your 90 challenge, sounds like it will be a lot of work. Maybe you should start here: http://adventure.howstuffworks.com/outdoor-activities/running/training/couch-to-5k-running-plan.htm. That might help you out with where to go with everything. Hope it all works out! Quote My Acountibilbuddies: District 12 ~~~ My Current Challenge: May the odds ever be in your favor Level 1 aspiring Adventurer. Link to comment
FiftyShades Posted July 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Thanks, I can already run a 5k (albeit, it takes me about 34 minutes.... I'm working on that), I saw your hunger games theme though! That's one of my motivations, to survive the Games, cuz right now, I'd be dead in less than a day. Quote Link to comment
