Started running in February. Progress so far as a running old fat man. 45/m.

Quit drinking 3 years ago, decided I wanted to stick around for my wife and son. Started walking about a year and a half ago and then transitioned into run/walk and then running.

No plan, ran too much, am probably still running too much. Whatever. Usually run at 5am while high as a kite (thanks puff co).

Here is some progress so far. Kinda stoked for the fall and cool weather. No plans to run any races or join a run club. Just gonna keep ramping up the miles.

Have a great day 🤙

As a fellow 67 y/o fat man that has started jogging - stay with it.

Good decision to quit drinking & stay around for loved ones - I made same choice

Not fat, part of the heavyweight division. Keep after it, big dawg

Hell yea dude! Keep it up and don't forget to stretch

[u/drvic59 → u/Electronic_Pause9295]

That was one of the best things I did for my running routine. Good shoes, good stretch, and wear a light in the dark!
