Trying to see if anyone has a routine for someone totally new to running. I’m a big fan of “this week do this, build up to do this, etc…” I’m in my thirties and from a young age until I was about 20 I had severe asthma. I’ve never been good at running. Asthma doesn’t bother me anymore but I’m needing something to do while traveling for work. I work construction all across the state and come home on the weekends.
If anyone has some ideas that would be great. When I do stuff I tend to over do it then it then it’s hard to make myself go out again.
Walking is no problem. I do a good amount of hiking and backpacking. On a normal work day my phone usually tracks me walking around 10 miles. Just once I start running I can’t go very far without being totally winded.
Already installed the app so I’ll be checking it out. Thanks!
Also lean slightly forward and try to get a good cadence ~170 spm. Having a shorter stride will help you land correctly on your foot and it’ll be more efficient.
Good luck!
