Exercise 4 Health, Mental Health, and Addiction vs. The Endorphin Factory

Went on my 3rd run of the year today...

I think it was probably more walking than running. :D

It's not that I can't run at a half-reasonable speed without stopping, but just not without pushing myself. Hopefully doing it the right way will pay off long-term & help me stick with it.

I definitely feel very invigorated running though. So that's what counts.
 
Congratulations! You're listening to your body and going at your own pace.
I think I have to realize some days I'm not going to have as much energy as others. I can run like a maniac some days and others, I do a light jog.

Today was a light jog day, but I kept going and you keep going too. That's what counts. I need to get ready to go for a walk outside around the block before it gets too dark. I've been feeling weak today for some reason.
 
As much as love to jog it hurts my knee. So I stick to swimming which is great, makes me feel so free and I can't get tired of it.

For me, the best time is when I shower after one hour and 'run' back home knowing that the next couple of hours will be pleasant and that my night will be calm.

I find it great to see you all getting the pleasure as a result of exercising. No matter if you walk, run or jog being out there is already great.

And when you commit to these activities - even better. It's good feeling all the endorphin making their way into our brain naturally.

Congrats to all!! :) <3
 
Looking for a bike thinking that it would have been nice if I could go or come back from work by bike.
That would save a lot of time in exercises and it would actually be fun!! :)
 
I'm not really sure what IR means (I looked up, various definitions) -- Anyways, I hope you get better and back to action! :)
 
Missed a couple of days, plan to go to the gym tomorrow, we'll have a small competition.
 
I was too tired for swimming today. Hopefully I'll restart tomorrow so I'm ready for the weekend. ;)
 
That's almost two of us! Working hard :)

Keeping my promise and have gone swimming almost everyday, including yesterday.
