My friends are not as in shape as me and I need to lose weight for wedding!?
They are over 200 lbs, around 5 feet tall, and they walk EXTREMELY slow. I wanted to workout..but they can't run and they refuse to. They said it's a leisurely walk. They want to go take a walk at the park everyday...the thing is they work a different shift than me so they go and work out at the gym, then when I get off of work they want to go to the park. I can't afford a gym. They want to do this everyday. The thing is I would like to run, as I am a little overweight myself but not to the point where I cannot jog and the only way I can lose weight is to get a workout which is jogging...walking does not do anything for me.
But I want to run at the park, so it is very awkward because I want to be able to go to the park and run, but I don't want them holding me down...and it's kind of selfish for them to expect me to walk with them everyday when I have a wedding that I need to lose weight for! They don't understand.
How do I handle this? I am considering going to a different park so they don't run into me? But then I like the original park though!
won't I be rude then?

Just go by yourself- you’re not joined to them are you? You’re allowed to do things for yourself in your own time without having to consider their feelings, especially when you already know the thing you want to do isn’t their thing.
Just tell them that you need to work out since you can’t go to the gym with them and jog by yourself.
go for a walk with them then go for a run- then itll be even more effective
