I saw in your other thread you are preparing for a 7k race, congrats and good luck! From experience I can tell you: if you already run 5k you can definitely do the race, during a race day you will feel much better than usual! Also, if you are enjoying it I would encourage to get a running watch, the training improves gratly once you can know at what speed you are running at any given moment, it allows you to set objectives and actually follow them more easily.

A place where comrades can
(1) discuss how best to optimize their physical health and develop “Iron Proletarian Discipline” in a healthy and holistic manner. Including but not limited to weight training, stretching, cardiovascular exercise, meditation, nutrition, sleep, and daily routines with an eye towards cultivating the best habits possible,
(2) share motivational and educational writings or videos; bonus points if the perspective is that of a Communist thinker such as Mao or Fidel Castro, and
(3) discuss the relationship between mental health and exercise.

I been running for like 10 minutes almost every day. Except some days I don't due to things. Along with that I been doing incline pull ups and push ups. Im trying to eventually do pull ups. I'm just trying to take better care of myself, and doing something is better than nothing.
My gym doesn't have parallel bars for dips, only angled bars and it's messing up my chest cartilage. So I found out that two treadmills beside each other actually have bars that are parallel. I'll let you figure out if I used them and will keep using them to make a case for parallel bars.
