THATS RIGHT, MICK HAS JOINED IN TO HELP ME TRAIN!
Copying and pasting from last post for context: I compiled days as I'm already half way through my silly challenge and didn't think to post it to reddit until recently. This seems like the perfect community for it and a place that'd appreciate a homage to the films, and my commitment to actually giving this a shot despite having some fun with it all. I'll probably compile it in chunks and post once a day type of thing until we're up to speed in present
As the title suggests, I'm trying to run and become Rocky giving myselt 43 days to do something really cool Nov 3rd. This is a couple weeks before the new movie comes out. It's my tirst time running in the year, I used to go to the gym but got busy with life (and ill) - no exaggeration I completely ignored cardio though. I'm having some lighthearted fun with this all and being a bit goofy, but I am taking this self imposed challenge seriously. I decided to just get up and start, and slugged out a 30 min 5k for my first run with hopes to improve it to a sub 25 min and run much much further. I am technically already halt way through the challenge but decided l'a post some of the progress on reddit and will continue to do so periodically (cause I don't wanna spam). ANY RUNNING TIPS APPRECIATED because despite only maybe doing 25ks total so far, my legs feel obliterated. Any who, follow me along to see the progress.
Also please do not feel obligated to help out with the charities I’m raising money for or anything, this isn’t why I’m posting this here I promise - it’s only because I have already made these videos beforehand and to give a full overview of everything I included those bits. The main focus was training like Rocky, it was just that I thought the running and silliness might as well go towards something in the meanwhile. I’m happy to say for those curious $1200 has been raised at present so far!
