Running to lose weight, any tips on where to start?
11.29.08
Hey there, so I'm looking to lose about 30 pounds. I've decided to start running to lose it, so I was wondering if anybody had any like tips or tricks to start running, I plan on doing a walk/run combo to start out, so anything would be wonderful!
omg i love this training program, it takes 9 weeks, but i felt results in the first week. basically, you do running 3 times a week, increasing the length you run compared to the length you walk during a 30 minute run. http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml
scroll down and you'll find the table that tells you the running schedule =]
Eat healthily, about 2000 calories per day.
Warm up before exercises, jumping jacks, touch your toes, stand on tips of toes while reaching upwards to the sky, squat and come back up very quickly a few times.
Run at a good pace.
That means you can't sing but can talk fairly easily.
Listening to music like on your iPod is motivating and takes your mind off how much you're exercising.
If you're not in excellent shape, run for 5-10 minutes, walk 2 minutes and start up again, for one hour.
Drink a lot of water during and after.

eat healthy to. Try to do fartlek runs(where you sprint then walk, or if u like long distance run for .5 miles then jog for 1 or something like that) then when you get better try to do fartlek 3days and long distance for 2days and sprint for 2days.
good luck

Yes, I have lost 30 pounds by a running plan in 2004.
First if you are not used to run, you shall start with half mile for almost 3 days. Then start increasing that distance in let´s say - quarter mile a day. Until you reach 6,25 miles or 10km.
In my city there are 10km runs in time to time. So you can sign up yourself for one onf this runs and have them as a goal.
If you are able to run 10km or 6,25 miles without stopping and without exausting yourself you won´t have those pounds anymore.
Good luck.
