Running? -

[Heimdallr]

Are there any runners in here? If not, I might recommend starting running if I were you.

Need some reasons? Here are a few! http://www.runaddicts.net/health-nutrition/the-physical-and-mental-benefits-of-running

Funny fact: I was a pretty decent cross country runner in high school. I was accepted to two colleges one of which wanted me to run on their cross country team. I guess I wasn't a really passionate runner at the time, and wasn't crazy about the idea of running 8 miles instead of 3.

Neither of my parents encouraged me to do it (for some reason) so I went to the non-running school. Mysteriously I decided not to run regularly and sure enough felt depressed/unmotivated.

Ive started daily running and have not looked back.

You can't run from this

A couple years back I was like a machine with running. (mainly in spring and summer due to more daylight after work) I've been really slacking as of late though.

I need to get back into it.

I'm a runner. I run marathons since I was 18 years old. It's a thing I really love to do.

Real talk now, how's your maidenhead? Have you found the sheikh of your dreams yet?

I'd recommend you to run the fuck away from this forum.

I'm all seriousness though, it's been something I wanna do for a while, since I'm starting to get in bad shape. However, I'm kinda lost on how to train for marathons and stuff.

I prefer swimming, myself. Low impact, great for building strength & endurance. A good starting point for more vigorous exercise.

I used to hate running but I did the couch to 5k thing, started with a recording of music with the run/walk beeps in it but it was shit music so I got an app, there's a continuation that takes you to 10k once you're running 5k with no dramas

Beat me to it... But yeah actually, for a good few years I would run on the treadmill twice a week for about 2 hours. I've been swimming more recently though. Running when you're listening to music can be fun, good stress release, your body will thank you.

Give running a chance people.

After 30 days and 75 miles of running I feel like a new person. I feel much happier much more creative and much more attractive/clearer skin (if I do say so myself.)

100 mile club here I come!

I prefer bicycling to running as I believe I have flat feet or some other foot problem (I get pretty bad pain in my heels if I run a lot or even just walk a lot in a day).

Also my lungs/heart are shit and I cannot do cardio for long without wanting to die.
