what is the point of forcing yourself to like something that you dont if the point is to get active (and stay that way) then do things that you like...no?

di flip side of learning to love it is that u may just naturally love running and never know. is like me now. mi not a runner, never a runner, used to look in awe at people who run. i just knew i'd suck at it but it was part of mi plan to meet people and stay active. di first day dem mek we run 30 mins mi tink mi dida go ded out there but lo and behold mi find seh mi start get that high after mi get past the first mile or 2. dat hurdle still hard fi mi but the high is worth it so i'd dare say i enjoy running

Re: Healthy Living- Going Hard into 2k12

I was never a runner but I have always been into physical fitness for most of my life, training and as a fitness trainer. Like FT, I used to see people running and always admire them. Then one day I ran with my martial arts instructor around a 1.5 ml trail. By half a mile, mi did a dead but I made it. Woohoo! From that day, I started running and started loving it and started going the distance, marathons and triathlons. The further and longer I ran, the more I love it.

Nowadays people look at me and say &quot;you're a runner aren't you?&quot;

I am running with them in March in New Orleans! Outside of ATL...the B'more and Houston Chapters are quite large. Just a bit about them. The only commitment they require is that you commit to SHOW UP. So them wont chat you if you walk, &quot;run slow&quot;, bawl while you running and dem things deh. But just nu flake on them. commit and keep your word. &lt;&lt;&lt;interesting, but that kinna how fitness works, too.
