Where's the "Reclusive hermit" one.
Does this come with a "let's try growing that beard back out" starter pack?

I fell into running...hard. I went from almost no physical exercise to running marathons over the space of 2 years. Did my first 100km ultra in December.
I see I've found another Type 2 connoisseur.

I have done all of these. None of them were a midlife crisis - that was straight fucking.
these are all horrible. where is cosplay at 48?
My closest one would be running. I started doing 5 minutes a day on an old exercise bike where the computer and thus the resistance motor didn't work in september, gradually adding more time as I got into better shape.
It was when I got a new one that actually works in mid January that I REALLY got going, though, and I've put in 90 hours for a total of 3813 km (2369 miles) since then.
For context, that's more than the straight line distance between Washington DC and Los Angeles or almost the distance between London, England and Gao, Mali.
As far as mid life crises go, that along with eating a lot better ain't so bad 😁
Less like a crisis, more like a solution
True 😁
What do you do if running hurts your knees? Just do it anyway?
I have tried changing footwear but generally if I walk a lot my knee will hurt. Doctor said thats just how I’m built I guess.
I would like to get into it. I guess I could just do NSAIDs?
I used to always run for fun. I was a go run a "real quick" 10k to hatch a pokemon egg kind of guy. I can't run anymore because of my knees, my doc said I need surgery, but I'm waiting until I feel that I need it.
Btw if I were you and my doctor said something dumb like that, I'd find another doctor.
My advice is to use an elliptical to test the waters. They are when used correctly low impact on the knees.
Thanks yeah that seems like a reasonable choice
Have you tried insoles? Mine started to hurt and it was from my knees turning in because of bad arch support in my shoes
I have, although I suppose it’s been a while since I tried running with the new shoes and insoles

Oh god, I feel called out. Except that mine has been a long and painful trajectory with various episodes since high school.
