I never played sports as a kid so yeah I guess it's unusual. 30 isn't even old.. ugh! Very upsetting.

That really stinks! My husband'...Aww, bummer! That really stinks! My husband's dr. told him if you aren't a runner by 30 not to even try. Well, I'm 32 and just starting so we'll see where it takes me. Just so frustrating to see so many runners and not be a part of it! Luckily there are other ways to get in shape and stay healthy. Hang in there, girl!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11530361814272535547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332903649775375204.post-14916195904406181012013-04-26T10:21:33.304-07:002013-04-26T10:21:33.304-07:00Thanks Sarah :( I have indeed lost weight in the l...Thanks Sarah :( I have indeed lost weight in the last 14 months.. about 17 lbs. But I had also switched up my diet. I now eat "cleaner." I used to go to a Pilates style gym and LOVED it. There, I also lost weight and inches. The doctor last night was saying that you only burn 50 calories/mile less than running. I sort of knew this, but it's not the same. You don't get that cardio high - I'm sure you know what I mean. So, I guess I can start going on long walks. LOL I'll be gone for hours to get a good burn :-/Rachel T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00961900746199922761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332903649775375204.post-79796147514486715092013-04-26T09:35:05.000-07:002013-04-26T09:35:05.000-07:00Oh Rachel...

Here's to hoping that the pain just goes away and you can keep at it for a few more years! :)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16445845152884940273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332903649775375204.post-20777409079399892752013-04-26T08:25:59.568-07:002013-04-26T08:25:59.568-07:00Hope the nice weather this weekend cheers you up!Hope the nice weather this weekend cheers you up!Silvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13105342965637848522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332903649775375204.post-71870340068236485082013-04-26T08:20:49.598-07:002013-04-26T08:20:49.598-07:00Thanks Silva!

You inspire people with the effort, the day-to-day work you put into it. It's not about the finish line.Silvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13105342965637848522noreply@blogger.com
