Re: Let's Talk About Running

I have no idea how you don't lose weight. I've been training for a half marathon since late August after 10 years of basically just getting fat and lately I'm shedding pounds like it's my job.
I have been dieting and I do have plenty of weight to lose (I started at around 235-240lbs and I'm currently right around 210) and I have been running A LOT lately but I haven't really been killing myself to lose weight per se.
I'm in week 8 of this program with my race on 12/11: Half Marathon Training: Novice

For the most part I feel great and the quick progress has been pretty amazing. Two and a half months ago I could barely run a mile without stopping, and now I'm at the point where four miles seems like a warm up. The only thing that really sucks is that it's now pitch black when I get home from work and it's getting cold. Figuring out time to run has also been an adjustment, but that's just something I'm learning to work around.
