The Pretend Fitness Thread

Was up in Raw in Sandyford earlier.

The amount of phones out and selfies/videos being taken by men and women was unreal. Every cunt in the country must have a fitness instagram account by now.

The country is fucked.

its the same everywhere, every cunt blathering on facebook about smashing a 5k in 25 minutes, I’d be fucking embarrassed to even write something like that down, I saw some fucker this morning boasting about doing a half marathon in 1:55

Was that on operation transformation or something?

Ah here, I was browsing through the event photos of this morning and some fucker I lapped twice is pictured finishing 7 minutes after me, the second time half a mile from home on a two mile lap, FFS! :joy: some people have no shame, I saw some other chancer in the 10k cutting through the park

do you ever be fighting with yourself in the middle of an event? I had to hit myself a clatter today to try and get myself going at one point

Had to dig deep today pal. The head had to go down as the wind and snow was going into the face. Was tempted to turn around but taking shortcuts gets you nowhere in life. I usually just shout “come on you fat cunt” (I’m not fat but was a chubster for a good few years).

Two friends have asked me to run a half marathon distance in morning. I’ll do some of it but will see how the body is. I’ll be pushing it this weekend but might take Monday and Tuesday off from training

Got 22km in this morning at low heart rate with my training partners. Off to Thurles for the hurling later. A great weekend to be alive

you are running away from something mate, self medicating is good but you will be a cripple in 10 years

Lads in their mid 30s to 40s literally running themselves into the ground… They will indeed be fucked.

I’ll probably be dead in ten years pal

it was savage out there today lads, fucking animal, blowing a gale down the south coast, driving rain into my face, if you weren’t running with it, you were running against it, it was one of them, a 180m hill between mile 2 and 3 nearly killed me, everything went out the window then, it became a battle of survival, time went out the window, I said to myself “Tassotti, keep going, keep jogging, keep battling, never give up” I was reduced to the shame of 9 minute miles, but I got there, I questioned the meaning of life. I’d need to be carried off with a banger or a stroke to have DNF beside my name, some lads were in a terrible state

You dug it out pal and lived to see another day. Winter miles will equate to summer smiles
