Comment on It's all SO simple!
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 6 days agoI wish I could like running. It hurts and is awkward and just generally sucks. Thank fuck I found bicycles.
So, yeah, for those who can’t make themselves like running, check out Craigslist or a local bicycle co-op to find a reasonably priced used bike and start riding. It’s transportation, it’s exercise, it can be meditation, and it’s easy on the joints.

Running sucks, doing a sport you don’t like is impossible to maintain. Thankfully there are a LOT of fun things out there.
I used to hate “every sport”, but after losing weight I took up bodybuilding/weightlifting, and HEMA for years (can’t recommend sports that cause brain damage though, regardless of fun)

I don’t know about that. I used to hate running haha. I remember my first 3km I swore I would never run again. 20 years later it’s my favorite thing in life. I’m not saying it’s for everyone but a little grit sometimes allows us to work out through the challenging bits and reach a fun place. Don’t get hurt or insist if it’s bad for you and all that, so don’t get me wrong…!
