Anonymous asked: I want to start running outside before breakfast...But I'm super self concious and I don't really know what i'm doing lol. Also should I, after my run - return home to go straight into my pilates and strength training. Or wait a while? xx



Honestly, no one gives a flying fuck that you’re running outside. There is no reason for you to worry what other people think when you’re running outside. Everyone else is thinking about where they’re driving, the work they need to get done, or their own personal issues. They really, really don’t care. The only thing they’d probably be thinking is “wow look at her being so dedicated to running, I wish I wasn’t so lazy!”

Do something good for yourself and go for it!
As for strength training and pilates, there’s really no reason to wait a while other than if you’re exhausted. Try to grab a post-workout snack too (something with protein and carbs in it).

Good luck and run hard!
