About a month ago I finally decided to improve myself and joined a gym. My first day there I ran a mile in 15minutes. Not good. (Not good for me, if this is your goal, its a good thing for you ya feel?) Last week I achieved one of my lifetime goals of breaking the 10minute barrier when I ran a 9:45 I was so excited I just wanted to tell everyone about it. But then this week I decided that it was time to best myself again, and ran a lifetime best 8:22 mile. I never thought I would reach either of these two goals and just wanted to tell you guys.
Also, I would like to say, that for anyone who is as anxious about joining a gym for the first time like I was, don't worry. If there is anything I've learned from going is that everyone there is much more concerned with how they look than how you look. Also, while the "gym rats" may seem intimidating at first, there's nothing they love more than working out. That is false actually, there is nothing they love more than helping other people learn to love to work out. Ask them for help, ask how they started, talk about their routine and how its changed over the years. They love talking about it and you can learn a lot from them. Of course, there are some that are just not nice people but everyone I've personally encountered has always had some wisdom to pass on. Go get it my dudes.
