I’ve been lifting weights consistently for a couple years and consider myself to be in good shape. It’s time to come off the winter bulk and I figured that starting up jogging would be an easy way to improve my conditioning and start dropping some weight, so I went out for my first jog yesterday after work.

The experience was humbling, it was shocking. In my youth I was an avid runner but have been out of it for a long time, I could not believe how difficult it was running while carrying this extra weight! For anyone else going through the same thing, hang in there
