Running again after years off. Overweight and starting from zero. For beginners, for comebacks, for anyone who thinks running isn’t for them. Running again.

Sharing the grind, the progress, the setbacks, and the lessons I wish I had known the first time. Overweight. Starting from zero. Blogging the process — the setbacks, the progress, and what I wish someone had told me the first time. For beginners, for people starting over, for anyone who thinks running isn’t for them.

Felt tired today. Changed up my diet to try and consume more protein and fiber. So it’s been a week. 😂 guess it’s working…⬇️ 5 lbs .

Ran on a flatter course than I’m use to, to test it out.

Found some back stretches that really helped. Had a great stretch session. Started running and first mile was like oh ok! Then just went with it!

Happy I was able to run today. Been out for almost a week because of back spasms.

6 miles today. Knee felt good the whole way. Taking tomorrow off and seeing how it feels!

Knee is better and feeling good.

If my naked shoulders offend you, please block me. I don’t need petty negativity!

Back from not running for a week. Knee is still bothering me . Hope I didn’t make it worse 🤣
