I started running this week, I plan on waking up at 4 am and go running around 5 am… The problem is I feel like I can barely move my legs! I am quite active but running I’ve always struggled with and I really want to keep doing it through life 🥺 please help me 🙏

sustained elevated heartbeat is what gets you into shape. Aim for long slow runs over erratic runs with walking mixed in.

if you are doing this as a lifestyle thing, I commend you. If you are an early riser, 5am runs are the way to go. However, find a running schedule that is sustainable. If you find yourself struggling to keep at the morning runs, adjust your schedule into one that allows you to be routine.
Best of luck

I wouldn’t run everyday if I were you. Maybe start with 2-3 times a week. Honestly, you don’t need to run much to be in pretty good shape. 30 mins a couple times a week and you’ll be golden.
Why do you need to get up at 4am to run at 5am? Prep stuff the night beforehand, get up at 5 and be out the door by 5:02am. No coffee, no shitting, no turning and tossing and stretching for half an hour in bed.
Just go out and run and deal with the rest after.
