Dear Harlow,
Great blog! I got it while searching through Google Images for "Runners body". Then I just started reading some of your older posts.
I started running mid-October this year. I signed up for a 10k run and my goal was to survive 10km. That was early November.
Now I'm preparing for a 15km run next month. I don't know how to train myself really. I just check out running schedules online.
Like you, I am not genetically endowed with my preferred body type, which is "eat as much as I want without getting fat or flabby". And it's more distressing because my older sister is. But that's life. So I've been lifting weights for a year - gained muscles but didn't lose as much fat as I thought I would.
Running seems to suit me better. I plan on sticking with it until mid next year and re-assess its effects on my body then made a conscious decision if I'll continue running (with free weights) or if I should invest my time on other more effective endeavors/exercises.
I hope you finally reach your goal!
It sounds exhausting to read that you've been trying to become "smaller" since 2010 - but that's exactly what I'm going through :D
Good luck and God bless!
