OMG Have just realised how unfit I am

Hi all, Won a prize of gym membership and went tonight! OMG, I actually nearly died! It was soooo tough and arms etc aching already...... Will it get better with time? Can't belive how bad I was....Walk a good bit but clearly not fast enough.

i'm a big walker myself but as soon as i go the gym i last about 15-20 mins then i either slow down or decide to go to the sauna and steam room is there anyway you can get someone to go with you to the gym? or even bring your ipod/mp3 filled with loads of fast tracks...that sometimes help me a little when i do wander up to the gym best of luck with it though

I go out walking so sometimes kid myself that I'm half fit. Send me running for 2 minutes though and I collapse in a wheezing, sweating heap. [Nice!] Well done on winning the membership!! Keep it up and you'll be flying in no time!!
