I've decided to go to an aerobics class once a week - more for the getting away from the kids cause am going crazy at home and with them 24/7, but figured that exercise stuff might be good too.]]> Fri, 03 Nov 2006 21:22:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=83733&title=how-to-run#83733 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=83718&title=how-to-run#83718 Author: my2angels

Brilliant@!!!!! I wish I had your "eagerness". I should start doing something to move these last few kilos (then I might actually have some clothes to wear)
At the moment I would run for 2 minutes and die of an asthma attack in this neighbourhood!]]> Thu, 02 Nov 2006 22:36:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=83451&title=how-to-run#83451 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=83228&title=how-to-run#83228 Author: nikkitheknitter

Well here's hoping the exercise makes your sleep more valuable... I know I was a heck of a lot less tired when I was fit. Not any more!]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2006 22:40:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82921&title=how-to-run#82921 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82918&title=how-to-run#82918 Author: my2angels

thats a good idea, i could run in the forest which is much more exciting than running the streets, only problem is Im a chicken and wouldnt like running them by myself. I am planning on going in the mornings though, before hubby goes to work. I figure ok i might lose half an hour sleep (and sleep is a precious thing at the moment) but at least i am gaining energy and losing weight..... well thats the theory. i have just finished a yoga dvd, man that was boring. Might have to invest in pilates i think]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2006 21:55:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82918&title=how-to-run#82918 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82911&title=how-to-run#82911 Author: nikkitheknitter

I don't know if this is suitable for you, but I find exercise in the mornings is hugely uplifting... providing you have some sort of brekkie before you leave.

With my hockey training (ha! many years ago now ) I used to go to the redwoods and run the shortest track, started out by walking half of it and then gradually working up to running the whole thing... then I started on the next longer track. I loved running those tracks because once you start you are pretty screwed and have to keep going! hehe]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2006 21:32:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82911&title=how-to-run#82911 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82874&title=how-to-run#82874 Author: jax

The only advice I can give from my current non-running standpoint, is what I did the first time I took it up on a serious basis, and started out with a mapped out circuit... and then did the "run for two lampposts, walk for the next two, run for the two after that etc" thing. Eventually you cut down how many you walk until you're just running. I would really like to get back into it too, but it was easier back in our Mt Wellington house, too many huge hills on the North Shore !!]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2006 20:10:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82874&title=how-to-run#82874 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82835&title=how-to-run#82835 Author: Andie

Back when I could, I used to love running... when I say 'running' I really mean basically hurling myself tumbling down the street huffing and puffing and then contorting myself into stretches to relieve the stitch at every few lamp-posts, walking past a few houses, then picking it up again.  I SUCKED at it so much but loved it anyway!!  You can't go wrong so long as you warm up well, stretch afterwards, don't keep going after an injury, wear good running shoes, and push yourself enough to get a decent workout but not so much that it's days before you can exercise again.  If you used to be a sprinter, you'll probably take to it really quickly, won't you?  Have a blast... I'm jealous and wish I could be out there beating the streets too!  ]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2006 17:13:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82835&title=how-to-run#82835 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82832&title=how-to-run#82832 Author: my2angels

Ive decided to give running a go. Ive never been a long distance runner but used to be a sprinter in my younger days. Ive read heaps of different ways to get going but does anyone have any tried and true ways to get running starting from extremely unfit and overweight? ]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2006 17:07:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4290&PID=82832&title=how-to-run#82832
