Re: New add to advice welcomed...help

I used to have my whole running thing down. I would run on a dirt track out at a university by where I lived, but when it would rain I would run on the spongy type track that the real runners ran on. I used to run up and down the bleachers too.

but I started out just walking. Then I went to running a 1/4 mile, and walking a 1/4 mile, and I just built up from there. On the weekends i would run ten miles. It was really great, but after I had my baby, because being in preterm labor and her being born premature all that feel by the wayside. I keep thinking that I want to get back into some sort of exercise, but my knees don't seem to take the running well anymore so I'm trying to focus on yoga and pilates.

Runningfree, just keep trying, but set small accomplishable goals for yourself. Something you know you can accomplish, and then build from there.

Brent it sounds great that you have your own private track so to speak to run on. Keep it up.
