Non-athletic people

[Morbyd]

I got bored reading the "New Year, New Me" thread

I have no interest in running down the street, much less a marathon!

Anyone else out there with me? Generally healthy but not athletic at all?

this is more my kinda thread.

I'm healthy enough as it is and defo wouldn't want to run what is actually a taxi journey.

Ya... first thing I thought of when I saw Liam's marathon time is how much faster I could get there by car

I consider my active weekend nights to be exercise enough

If it was your car mate its quicker running

You'd be surprised... I can get her up to sustained speeds in excess of 60 kpm!

Even though I am a relatively healthy and exercise blah blah blah. Deep down I am a fat person screaming to come out.

I hate exercise especially running

Doesn't matter how fast it is. If it goes the distance, has seats and a stereo it's better than running.

Mmm.. baking KFC fried chicken into a pie.
Could use a nice gravy though...

Tried running in a group a few years back at work every other lunchtime or after work and they wouldnt wait for me when I had a ciggie break and then tried it last year just running by myself with the iPod for company - lasted about 3 months in the run up to Ibiza but to be honest, it killed my knees and hips (years of Thai Boxing and Kick Boxing has buggered them)

So all in all, I used to love full on competitive exercise, but now I prefer to work in the garden instead, I force myself to leave the car and walk if its less than 3 miles there and back and I do Pilates too - nice gentle excercise for older people

I eat really sensibly now too - cant really remember the last time I went out and bought junk food/fast food.

However if it was fashionable to be obese, I would be Dawn French.....
