ugh machines are so awful and the distractions aren't needed while running. during physical therapy for my leg, there was nothing more that i wanted than to run outside in the park. in ny, just take a metrocard with you while you're running, in case something happens. it's what i do when i'm in the park, and subway/bus is never more than a few blocks away, not that i need them. |

You do realize that is the poing correct? To PUSH you to keep going. Also you get cramps in your side from improper breathing. |

i think i read a while ago that you get stitches landing on one leg while you breathe out as opposed to landing on the other.
as for other cramps, stretch, and drink fluids before you run. |

I do quite a but of running, 3 or 4 times a week. Mostly between 8 and 15 kilometers, depending on the type of training. Every other weekend or so I do a 20+ kilometer run.
Did a few half marathons, 10k's and 10 mile events so far (recreational). Next year, the marathon. God I'll be knackered. |

I meant in your side. Like holding the side just below your lungs in the diaphram area. |

Well if i run full speed i can only run a mile.... (sucks because when i play futbol i get tired so quick because of all the sprinting there is)
If i run at medium speed i cant run for 30 minutes.. maye 20, so i just slow down and chill while running. Im not training for anything, just running for the lulz. |
I know Le Nach, i was just giving you a hard time....I feel bad about it now. :( |

Another thing I like to do is to break up a longer distance (like 800 yards or so) with pushups every twenty-five or fifty yards.
|
that's one of the best workouts you can do for maintaining a healthy/fit body. i used to make our flight do a 2-mile run, and we would stop and do 20-25 pushups and situps at every half mile.
ended up being a full 2 miles of running, plus 100 pushups and 100 situps. great workout:toocool: |
