    I used to run but then I read about how runner are more apt to need knee and hi replacements when the get older.  
    I read that running was good for your heart, but bad for everything else. Haha.

    I always talk to places, and I'm pretty brisk.
    You’re definitely a brisk talker ;)

    I completely overdid it on running over the past 12 months, doing about 10km 7 days a week, on hard surfaces. I'm easing off currently. It's painful.

    Hard to find someone say the word, because people over here say "löpning" (running a long distance as training) or "springa" (running more general) instead... "jogga" I guess sounds to old fashioned...

    But here you can hear her say "morning jog" at 40 seconds in:

    Try intervals. 3 times 5 min running, 2 min walking and slowly build that up

    I dated a subfertile bodybuilder once (oh, how I love sexy abs). He swears the fastest way to shed flab/pounds quickly is running.

    Keep it up!

    I was a runner in my teens and twenties and then stopped because of knee pain. I assumed it was joint pain but much later in life found out it was due to lack of stretching of my quads. 

    In January 2019 I broke my ankle while climbing. A series of complications including infection, delayed bone union and incorrect advice from a novice physiotherapist meant I was in a cast for much longer than was ideal, and came out of it with major muscle wasting, joint stiffness and reduced bone density. I worked pretty hard on my rehab and got the ankle/leg back to about 95% of where I wanted it to be, but I wanted as much recovery as possible, so in about February of this year I decided to take up running again to basically force more healing and function. For the first several runs, my ankle started hurting after about 30 minutes of running and would still hurt the next day. Then it was only hurting while I ran and stopped after. Now it doesn’t hurt at all and both legs feel equally strong and bouncy. So, mission accomplished! 

    Plus it’s fun :lol:

    Running hurts. Ive been walking  a lot but not the  same level of cardio. I dont get anything from it. Only really the  sights i see and that is beautiful  sometimes. Like wildlife which i love. Get outdoors is the  main thing  i guess.  Have you ever  ran/jogged before S.C

    No. Always hated it. If we're speaking distance. 

    I was pretty fast on 60-100 metres when I was like 14-17. But could never run longer than that.

    Liam was right about a few things here. Running is good for your head. I started running because I needed to bring more cardio into my life, but it has become a lot more than that. It really does clear your head. You can either think about things when you are running or get lost in great music. Either way is good. I also have turned down late night partying because I knew I wanted to get up and run in the morning. So it’s good for that as well - especially “when you’re this age”.

    I was into lifting for many years. Started to get more into power lifting and end up injuring my right shoulder and had to easy off. Last winter, I was introduced to the world of David Goggins and started running. Bought a treadmill since it’s too fucking cold in Minneapolis/St Paul to run outside in the winter.

    Now I am running 3-5 miles outside, at least 4 times a week. Try to get going around 5:30am. At first it was for the cardio, now it’s a way to clear the head. Generally no music, if I do, it’s just ambient stuff (the last two NIN  Ghost albums are great).

    One important thing is to buy a pair of quality running shoes. When I first started I was running in some cheap Nike gym shoes which killed my feet/knees. Currently running on Hoka Cliftons.  Makes a world of difference.

    Agree on shoes.  They don't have to be fancy but they need to match you - and be recycled somewhat frequently.
    Brooks Ghosts are my shoes of choice.

    I'm pretty good at jiggity jogging.  You know, that thing you do when you can't sleep so you kind of rock back and forth on one side.

    Yes. The shoe issue is so important. When I started I bought these Adidas running shoes because I thought they looked cool. They weren’t cheap, but totally wrong for my feet. Destroyed my ankles for several weeks. You are right the shoes have to match your stride. Many running stores will evaluate your stride to see if you are neutral, pronate or supinate. I ended up being neutral. I wear ASICS Cloud Nimbus. I change them out every 6-7 months or so. I have heard great things about Brooks. Might look more into them.
