I have had a one month of no physical fitness. I froze my gym membership in the beginning due to a little travel, but when I returned back two weeks ago, I just bummed and procrastinated running.
I planned to go out for a run/walk at Karura on Saturday, but those plans were sabotaged by nonsensical stuff. Nonetheless, I did it this Sunday evening. Although my initial plan was to go to Karura forest, I ran out of time and instead chose the Runda area route - Ruaka road, from Limuru road all the way to Horse Shoe Village and back. (A really decent stretch).
I am glad I finally did it, so in the next two weeks, I will hit the gym/run to get my body ready for hikes at least once or twice a month, beginning next month.
No greater feeling than going back to fitness things.
I once was an avid fitness enthusiast. I also joined running groups like urban swara and hash harriers, but lately I am really struggling, but more of mentally than physically. If you go hard in the beginning, you will always bounce back easy after a hiatus and just can’t leave without it, at some point.
Nope, they map out different terrains that are more accessible by most runners and prefer Monday runs. Last time I ran with them was in Kileleshwa, but I ran with Urban Swara for a longer period.
