Hello comrades and welcome to the second improvement megathread of June! rainbow-has

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you’ve done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any plans or goals for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, “sober for one day.” Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don’t have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

    I missed a reply last week but I actually went running twice this week. I downloaded an app for couch to 5k but I need to get a better one. Doing the alternate run/walking thing helped a lot and I could easily do it for almost an hour. In general I’ve been managing to avoid cookies in shit but sometimes I just end up drinking sugary stuff. I’ve been keeping good pace with music but I got sidetracked instead of finishing anything. I think I might get a new toy which might refuel my motivation for a bit. I have to remember to refrain from overdoing it to the point of injury or burnout though.

      I also haven’t found a great couch to 5k app so I just use this image to check the intervals:

      and track them on the deafult timer app. You can use the Strava app to track your distance and stuff
