Fireman Tim Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Hi all, I'm joining to start running. 53 year old male with the goal of running a 5K in June and July. Not much of a runner, but working on elliptical for last 5 months. Running is different. Weather is breaking so looking to start in the next week or so. Any advice and support is appreciated.

Guest TrishE Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Welcome fireman tim! Yes unfortunately running is very different from elliptical. My advice would be to invest in a good pair of running shoes. If you can swing the cost theyre totally worth it. Also set short term and reachable goals and reward yourself when you reach them. This helps when the motivation starts to dim a little. Good luck We are here for help and encouragement if need be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
