I only eat canned or processed food, they're called preservatives for a reason yeah?
Exercise done. I forgot what an ace feeling it is when your muscles are quivering. I just wish I had the good endorphin rush that i once had after a good workout, just feeling nauseous lol. I'm sure that goid feeling will return if I keep at it n introduce more cardio.
Time for drink of water n a walk

Nice one. Best time of the day for it too. You'll feel ace for the rest of the day now.
I ran for exactly 1hr on Saturday and covered 10.7km. May do a 5k once before work this week but I'm away at the weekend so won't be doing another 10k for a while now.
Taking 5kg of home made brownies to work for my birthday to balance out all the healthy today though.

Here's a nice picture of my pale, hairy and sweaty arse. It's got a painful boil, that won't pop, from excessive bike riding.
I have hydrogen peroxide and a razor blade. This could sting a bit. . .
I have recently stopped taking any drugs after a spell of trying a collection of new things, and after a few weeks I think my body might be coming round. Haven't a solid meal in a week, and I just know I have no nutrients or vitamins left. I wake up in the mornings so sick feeling, like have been drinking bottles of whiskey but haven't been touching alcohol at all. Hot sweats, faintness, you name it. I think it's pretty much malnutrition.
advice? Vitamins to get, juices to drink, best foods to get back into stomaching it again? Any feeders about
Today is exactly 2 years and one day since I had the really big surgery to construct my j-pouch. The day after the surgery, full of optimism about what it would allow me to do, I registered to the the Great South Run in 2014, which is exactly 10 miles. I seem to remember setting myself a goal of 100 minutes too.
Of course, life doesn't always work out as you plan and instead I had nine months off work sick, six hospitalisations, three surgeries, and a permanent stoma.
But this morning I wanted to prove to myself that although things might get in the way of your plans, if you keep on trying, you will get there eventually. So I got up and ran 10 miles (nearly twice as far as I've ever run in my life before) and surprised myself by being able to keep going without having to stop and walk at all. Completed the run in 89 minutes and 55 seconds.
Feeling pretty pleased with myself to be honest
Ran 5.5km at 5.30am. Feels like a form of self harm. Lungs are in an abysmal state after a weekend of smoking my way through a 25g pouch of baccy. Still, if I was going to slip somewhere at a festival I'm glad it was by smoking and not drinking (8 weeks tomorrow woo!), and I don't think I can actually take mdma without a cigarette or spliff constantly in my hand
6 months of no smoking, 10-ish months of no vodka. doing a physically hard job again & starting to bulk up with a decent diet and whey protein. feeling pretty good. until monday comes again after being on a lil speed sesh
Today I ran in my first competitive event, a local 10k. I came 361/1500 with a chip time of 48:50. Feel a bit disappointed about this because I'd tried so hard to get fit enough to do it in 45mins. My PB in training was 48:41 so I was only 9 seconds off that but everyone was telling me I'd be faster in an event, so I was kinda hopeful I'd get closer to 45. I felt terrible the whole way round though! Been smoking a fair bit of weed again which I guess isn't helping. Need something to take the edge off in the evenings which doesn't slow me down when I go out running!
Anyway, the goal is now to keep chipping away until I can consistently run a 45min/10k (I can go up a group at running club too then) and then start working on my stamina to get fit for a half marathon in the spring. Going to be tough keeping the motivation up through the winter, already had some tough 5am morning runs in the dark, cold and wet, and I don't see this improving for a while
Anyway, I had to bump this from page 3 again, is anyone else doing anything healthy at the moment? :D
Well done indeed, Josh! The first 10k is a milestone for every runner
I spent the last three months destroying the healtiness of the first six (food, food and more food
Other people's progress is half the reason I'm hooked on running in the first place. The other half is my own progress. If you can find ways to track and measure your fitness, it becomes much better.
4.30am is mental though, I have to get up at 5am to do a 10k before work and I refuse to start any earlier.
Heh, sounds like me, only I didn't want to stop eating shit so I just started running more :D As long as you burn off the calories you can eat anything you want right?
Signed up for the Milton Keynes half marathon last night (didn't take long eh) which is in exactly 5 months time. Gotta have a goal to keep me going through the cold, dark and wet winter! Would love to o do it in under 2hrs but we'll see. Furthest I've ever run is 10 miles in just under 90 mins. Time to work on my stamina! Hopefully I'll sneak in that elusive 45mins 10k at some point too.
lol. If you are not putting on fat then you should be fine!
You have got plenty of time to train for the marathon, and the <2hrs goal should be quite attainable for you! But don't train only your stamina, do some speed training as well!
Btw: I admire you. For me, running season will reopen next March...
I did T25 today n a few chin ups pn my chin up bar. Thank you, Josh, for reporting your progressing. It's actualky helping motivate me somewhat.
I was going to do race4life half marathon this October (last Sunday) but things happened n that was end to that - but there's always next year. This was the first one they've done so I do hope they put on another one. They held it in London but not where the London marathon is held, a scenic route.
Anyway keep it going, Josh n good luck with the HM. I'm sure you'll train fine. It's only 3 1/2 miles more than what you've already done if you've ran 10miles beforw. Last year you were ill n in hospital. You've come a long way, Josh, n should be very proud of all you've achieved(ing).
All the best to you.
