I Might Need to Go for a Run.

[Tactical Pith Helmet]

I do the equivalent to a marathon every few days.   

I put a snickers in my lunchbox...

Joking aside, I'm waiting for my back to heal so its no more running and free weights.  Just physio, and gentle bag work to get some cardio.

As the years go on my loadout gone much smaller, no more plate carriers and limited number of gas mags.

I still wear a helmet with lower mask as I tend to shot in the head/face lots ?

Click to shrink...

I know I've put on weight this lock-down ... But I seems to be preparing to punish myself by doing 2 consecutive days of Airsoft with an even heavier load out than pre-lock-down/tier 4 ...

Full Osprey, w/ pauldrons, collar ... A weighty GBBR, vest mounted Sig P226R, 6 AR mags, 4 pistol mags, and enough Pyro to attract a CSAR extraction ???

This has been absolutely the worst time for keeping in shape almost a perfect storm in fact! 
 

1, Shite weather which puts off runs and the like

2, No gyms open either

3, This push button ordering is really being ramped up for junk food makes it far too easy to get sucked into bad food

I was doing ok last year, played a game in September and was reasonably ok so started that ‘couch to 5k’ thing. I was also getting on the stationary bike to supplement this. 

That was all going well then unexpectedly a slot came up in November for a heart procedure I was waiting for and I couldn’t say no. 
 

The recovery kind of morphed into xmas before I knew it and it wasn’t till last month that I started running again. 
 

I’d highly recommend the couch to 5k thing if you’re thinking of a way to get into it (or back into it) I’m on week 6 now and it’s not so bad, think when I get back into a game somewhere I’ll know for sure! 
 

In that time I’ve also got some PLCE and haven’t done any exercise in that, could be time to wear it out on a run and try and ignore the funny looks....

Also using one of them scales with the app to keep track of the progress I find helps.

Like most of ys that can I have also started the slow progress back to fitness, by buying my kid a scooter.....it has now become a school run and not a bus. 

The breathing us getting there, what I am finding is the pain in lower leg, feels like jolts in the muscles. Oh well I can do short bursts, that will do for now. 

Well done to those that can and are. For those that are trying, well done. For those suffering a bit and can't, I empathise for you and as mentioned you don't need to run around like a monster jacked hap fiend to have a great day.

Yeah when running I sometimes get bad muscle cramps and shin splints afterwards.muscles
