Did my first run last night after nearly a year of doing no exercise.

Bloody hell I'm suffering this morning, it all hurts especially when trying to walk downstairs or sit down.

The evening started of pleasantly enough, nice gentle jog through the countryside, until we got home and Fish went to get the door key out of his pocket........ yes you guessed it, no door key. Why didn't we hide it under a plant pot or something I hear you ask, the answer is I don't know and it doesn't matter much now anyway.

A broken and boarded up window later we were back in. I'm now wondering when I am going to feel like doing it all over again.

Anybody else here do much or any exercise, or is it all just hand exercises on PH?

Getting back into exercise is always a killer - or when you increase what your doing...

I take it you did a suitable warm up, warm down and stretching Mrs Fish!

I already knew that, which is why I have put off doing anything about it for so long, knowing how much it was going to hurt. But I will certainly stick with it.

Join a gym... that way you'll feel obliged to go due to the financial implications...!

Used to go to the gym 4 nights a week for nearly 5 years, I stopped going a year ago as I got fed up with it, moved jobs and home etc. and done nothing since.

I go three times a week... bit of a chore... but depending on the equipment I'm using I can either:

a) Watch telly (Sky One, Sky Sports, Sky News or MTV)
b) Watch people leave the gym, light a fag, get in the car and drive to Maccy D's drive through...
c) Watch the wildlfe outside
d) Watch the wildlfe inside

All four have their merits and help to pass the time

Gyms bore me to tears. You need to something enjoyable.

Thai boxing's my thing, its great fun and totally does you in. Got told last night that I'm fighting on the 10th of May.....

You get used to it though, the aches and pains will go after a few weeks of regular training.

I got really really fed up of the gym, so I won't be going back in a hurry. I'll give this jogging lark a go first.

It'll get worse before it gets better.

It'll hurt when you sneeze. Or cough. Or fart. Or cough and fart together. Or laugh. Or stand up. Or sit down. Or bend over. Or walk. Or stretch. Or put your trousers on. Or take them off. Or........
