Sonnet
Ireland39 Posts
Spent years all 'round sat by the desk, And all the while I've long decried, The urge to make me less grotesque But in the course of days and nights, And sprawled across the floor I fear, With poor living death could draw nigh, My own ill fitness pulling her near This fair eve I began my run, Beside a man of mountainous build, Still by the light of the setting sun, Then fast by me he quickly spilled As I stood there, hands on knees, I thought, To Team Liquid so, where ask I ought... "any tips?"  | ||

If you work too hard the first couple of days, you will pull something and injure yourself. Then you will be turned off running and not be able to develop the long-term cardio you need to in order to be more fit. 2) Don't worry about how other people are running or if you're going fast or slow. You may see very fit people or, if you're really not fast, not very fit people pass you. Just go at your own pace. You're not in this for some competition, and there's no real race. Run against yourself. P.S. Don't forget to stretch. | ||

2. Use mp3 player 3. Go a long distance, and walk parts if you have to. 4. Keep doing it 5. Do it with a partner somenone who is as fit or fitter (that way you have motiviation to keep running faster/better) 6. You will be hungrier but dont overeat to compensate if your goal is to lose weight. GL HF, I love running! | ||

your calfs will ache your quads will too But do not quit cuz of that do not fear for there has always been a pioneer Before you run make sure you stretch but before that you need to warm up fast And if you see any rapists on the streets, don't forget to pull out your gat. After your run don't immediatly sit down but however if you want cramp then go ahead god damn. You need to first cool off by running some more Try to keep your mind away from sexing whores. I loved running so much with a passion me too out of shape so i need some bashin You now motivated me to get out my ass and go out and show the world my fat. | ||

I would also suggest picking a 5k about 3 months from now and signing up for it once registration starts. It will provide some encouragement for you to keep on running instead of just quitting after a week. If you're interested in getting in shape instead of just losing weight, go to the gym 2 or 3 times a week as well. | ||

These are my general guidelines that have gotten me fit. Once you get better, you'll start to notice that the first 20 minutes or so are the hardest. But after that point you get a sudden boost of energy. It makes you feel invincible. | ||

There's nothing more useless than plodding along at 8mins/km for an hour and a half, and it wastes your time too.

If you haven't done any running before and you try to run 5k at a decent pace you will just end up hurting yourself. 8mins/km for 3+ kms isn't "plodding along" for someone who isn't physically fit. Please correct me if I'm wrong. | ||

Start off with just a little running, maybe 2-3 miles on a 3 or 4 days of the work and gradually build up, adding another day or so every or every other week if you felt strong the previous week. Once you get to that point, then you can increase around 10% per week in terms of mileage, maybe more if it feels really good. As with anything, if you start to have big fatigue or nagging pains be sure to go ahead and take a break, running through fatigue and injury only makes it worse and the running far less enjoyable. Picking a short race, such as a 5K, can be a great motivator to keep you true to your training. Above all, keep the running at a comfortable pace, so that the running is fun, or at the very least not uncomfortable. There is a time and place for faster workouts, but if you're just starting I would get used to running and just work on devloping a decent base. | ||

Stretch every muslce you can think of in your body. Get your body and mind ready for a mentally peaceful (you can even say running can be like a mental cleansing) and physically painful experience. Make the pain the peace. Have a good diet so your body has the nutrients to perform well, then start off at a slow pace. I walk for like 5 minutes before I actually start jogging. I very slowly increase my speed till I feel like if I push myself I'm going to have to stop, so I step down a little but keep the pace. Once you realize you are running at a good pace and its not phasing you that much, kick it up just a bit and try to keep it there. Repeat till you feel like you're spent. Don't put a number of miles or a time limit, your body will tell you when you've had enough exercise. Just go and let your mind wander when you are running, think or do anything that makes you most comfortable (except stopping of course) After jogging for a minute or so, you will be inhaling and exhaling more. Inhale through your nose with an amount of steps you feel comfortable with, then exhale in the same rythem out of your mouth. When I start off I inhale 8 steps, exhale 8 steps. Deep breaths from the diaphragm. This does wonder for your lungs over time. You will want to increase your distance over time. Try running a few times a week at least for at least a half an hour. You don't have to be running constantly for a half an hour, just push yourself for that long. Go home, eat, take a nap, and wake up feeling like a shmillion dollarz. GL HF, go gettem tiger. I'm rootin for ya Sonnet. I hope all your posts are sonnets | ||

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I pretty muchy disagree with TimmyMac, at least from the way I think he means what he said. Running at 8min/km is totally fine if that is a decent pace for you, i.e conversational/65ish % max HR type running. This will develop aerobic capacity just fine because it is a good aerobic pace for you. Now, if you're a fit guy going out and running at 8 min/km is a waste of you're time, unless your doing some sort of recovery day or warm up. Running is all about the right intensity for you. Plodding along is totally realtive to the person. For an elite runner like Haile Gebreselassie plodding along is sub 7:00 miles, and an easy jog is probably in the neighboorhood of 6:00 or less per mile. Then again, this is a guy who can run 26 4:40 ish miles. It's all relative to your own personal fitness level. | ||

You want to run some more? Get on it, Run til your feet get sore. Don't let others grind your gears, Just be better than you were last week. Don't compare yourself to peers, Cuz they've got nothing on how you geek. Find a way to make the exercise fun. Listening to music works for me. Find what compels you to run. I think finding a reason is the key. Yo Sonnet, You want to run some more? Get on it, Run til you can't take anymore. If you find you haven't exercised all day, And if you have been devoid of motion, You might get put into a state of dismay. Note that fitness requires devotion. I even run withing my own house I like 'free running', taking an odd path When you're sweaty, shower for a douse! You'll be fitter over time according to my math. So Sonnet, You want to run some more? GTF on it, Until you practically soar.  | ||

for you see my legs do pain me sorely, Dull aches through my legs have sharpened, I must from now on stretch more surely Still 'cross plains I watch them scurry, Their pounding feet 'gainst dew soaked grass, Legs all constant motion, a grim flurry Sun sheen on shoes, and all of glass And so I'll run until a stitch rends, 'til setting sun the moon eclipses, And like my runs this sonnet ends, In vaguely disappointed ellipsis But most of all I'm glad to see, I'm not as 'lone as I thought I'd be | ||

Flat surfaces rock. I should own up, my diet's poor, To mars and coke do my tastes trend, Hence forth shall I try to be mature, In fruit's direction shall I tend 'til now on grass have I been running, Perhaps 'tis on this account my ankles ache, So from now on I feel a yearning, To feel my feet on solid substrate If nothing else I'm running further, Happy too to say that I feel fitter, And poor sleep gived me far less bother, Of these benefits I'm all atwitter, A huge thanks to all who've so far posted, Without the advice I'd be pretty much toasted | ||
