First run this morning!

I feel kind of nervous, especially conscious of what I might look like running out at the lake near our house. That's why I'm doing it early this morning. Hopefully I can overcome my anxiety. Also, with my flat feet, I hope I don't injure myself. A couple of days ago I bought a pair of Dr. Schools custom orthotics to go in my Brooks. I'll start out stretching of course, especially since my calves have been burning from just walking. Do hot Epsom baths help for pre and post runs or would this make the aching worse?

Hi Chris!

Great job!! I too feel very self conscious about what I look like running. I wear an oversized hoodie and baggy shorts or sweats. I am the biggest I have ever been so I understand the anxiety. Keep it up though, you will start to loose the weight and gain your confidence back!! I know I will too! Yes, Epsom salt baths are AMAZING!!
