    @(you need an account to see links): Yeah well my main goal has just been increasing my endurance, my runs are usually 3-4 miles long now and I recently was able to keep going for four miles straight. I didn't have time for a long run yesterday so I decided to just try to break 8 mins and I got a 7:56. Doesn't mean I'm stopping there though!

    I keep telling myself I'm going to start running again. But I keep having excuses as to why I can't do it today. I should really go out and run a mile today at least. It'd probably take me like 12 minutes (maybe more... I'm not sure I could run a whole mile right now) but at least I'd feel accomplished for getting it done.

    Excuses don't help anybody! You've just got to get out there and MOVE. Also, if you aren't able to run now maybe you should just work on increasing your endurance in other ways? I have a lot of short circuit training routines I could post or send to you. You just repeat them through as many times as you'd like.

    Ooh that'd be awesome!

    Yeah I fight with depression, so that drains my energy. And it's also just like omg no I don't feel like dealing with this right now

    Exercise has actually been proven to combat depression!

    As for some workouts, maybe I'll just post a thread if anybody is interested? We could have a daily challenge or something, where I post the challenge of the day and everybody (who's interested) tries to complete it? Doing little things like that are what help keep me motivated!

    Yeah I definitely feel better when I am more active. I was sick for like 3 months though, and wasn't allowed to do much exercising. That could have led to some icky complications. So now I'm just trying to get back into the swing of things.

    That'd be cool though. I had this walking/running thread on a different forum, but that kind of died out because I got so busy and wasn't able to get on to update it. So yeah :/

    Start is again on here!
    What was the premise of the thread? Just goals for everyday/week/month? My goal for this month is to run 30 miles. I'm already almost there.

    Ooh awesome!

    ANd lol no, it was just like a forum wide walk/run to however many miles.
    Each person adds the number of miles they've run that day and when we get to the goal miles, everyone feels awesome.

    I actually really like that idea! I'd like it if you made a thread like that. c: Start us off by walking a mile today!

    I dunno how much to go to. And I'm not sure I manage to stay active enough to keep up with it.
