Running sucks balls

I started on the couch to 5K(3 miles) program, in an attempt to shift the final 20 lb and have a decent build.....

Have I mentioned running SUCKS?

UGH

Strange thing is, the after-effects are a wicked high.

Oh yeah, the after-run cigarette is the shit! I hate running, but am oddly good at it. Even with fucked up knees I can run longer than most of the people I work with, and I'm at least 25-50 pounds heavier than a lot of them. But for a PT test, they time us on a 2 mile run, which I tend to do in the lower half of the 14 minute spectrum, usually ahead of the skinnier guys.

I've also completed 5K's, 10K's, and a half marathon (10.2 miles or something like that). Did I mention I have fucked up knees?

Unfortunately, no matter how much I run, I can't seem to get my weight to drop below 190 pounds.

I ran once.

Waited at the place I ran to.

It didn't move. Could've walked.

Nobody is chasing me so, so i have no need to run...

As opposed to just running balls?

Ran a lot in high school- cross country and captain of the track team, and some in college. But I really hate it now- gives me headaches. Plus it is usually a million degrees outside here.

Running for me is the most useful physical skill to train..but also the biggest pain in the ass :(

I can't remember the last time I ran, for any reason.

i run to get the mail sometimes, like when it's raining or cold out. otherwise, the only other times i run is when i am chasing the cat. im not sure who wins in those cases though.

running is pretty cool

I'd do it, but I don't need to lose anymore weight. that wouldn't be good.
