    I want to run earlier in the mornings because it’s getting too hot during the day. I don’t know if I should go before breakfast (will there be a risk of fainting/being too tired?) or after and have breakfast stupidly early.

    With restriction, I’ve gotten more tired (obviously) even though I’ve been having an average of 1200/day. Is there anything you do to be able to keep lifting, and keeping your energy? Im already drinking water, having protein powder and electrolytes 😭 Coffee and a few times a week I’ll have...

    I've been running for the past couple months but recently have been getting really painful chafing(?), but only on the TOP of my big toes. I have tried taking a rest day in between runs, slowing down, taking 10 min breaks between runs, but it comes back when I run. Today, I tried using Aquaphor...

Obviously people who drink a...

    I have been between recovery and relapse for almost 10 years now - I’ve been cleared to start running again after some medical things so starting the couch to 5k program. Essentially starting from not having run in a long time and building slowly over I think 8 weeks to run a 5k, building up...

    Does running become a chore when you are underweight? Do you still get a runner's high and feel good after running or do you just feel exhausted?

    Writing this more as a personal record to look back on but also thought it might be useful for others who are interested in this form of exercise. About me: I generally a low calorie restricter so I don’t exercise, not at all really. I’ve heard pilates is really good for low intensity work outs...
