Who among us had never faced great and almost overwhelming life circumstances? Life is like a game, when played on easy level it brings you just wasted time, neither fun, nor fame and glory. You switch to the harder level and achieve more interest -- you are involved and cam make changes and place your stakes! You can win or loose and what you'll get is a life itself, full of things in it to let you stay captivated through the subscription term. But there are times when life seems harder then it really is. Or just too hard. Sometimes it breaks all your achievements and plans leaving you all alone with no light of hope and surrounded with nightmares from the deepest hell. It's time to get back to foundation and rebuild everything, start with running. It helps.
First of all -- I recommend to run outside, park, wood, street -- it's fun, consume more energy and help you stay motivated -- you'll gel much positive feedback though it sometimes will be a little bit negative. Be prepared to be chased by packs of wild dogs, struggle with the surface and step over your shame. Every run will give you such a great relief...
Believe me or not, but there are only three options for you if you are going to start running. You should create a training plan or use on, already created. You have to adopt one of novice training concepts -- 30 minutes per training, 20 minutes per training or as much as you want whatever per whatever ) And of course you have to buy a pair of nice running shoes.
Let's start with a training plan for today and discuss it later in details as well as running shoes and the problem of choice and beauty. Let's assume that you are going to create a good habit.While creating a habit is not too hard itself, it isn't easy from the other point of view. You might set up one or more supporting habits to empower your motivation. Like paying yourself for every training and or placing some pleasure-like activities after the training.
If you are inventing a plan, you can shift and customize everything in it to fit your work or study timetable. Just take a time slice of 20-30 or whatever minutes a day or two and divide them in two parts -- one for running and one for walking. For example let's assume that you are going to get your first 40 minute run in two weeks, what you should do:
day, week |
run (minutes) |
walk (minutes) |
| Monday, week 1 | 5 | 35 |
| Tuesday, week 1 | 10 | 30 |
| Wednesday, week 1 | 10 | 30 |
| Thursday, week 1 | 15 | 25 |
| Friday, week 1 | 10 | 30 |
| Saturday, week 1 | 20 | 20 |
| Sunday, week 1 | 15+5 (run, then walk, then run again) | 20 |
| Monday, week 2 | 15 | 25 |
| Tuesday, week 2 | 5+15 (run, then walk, then run again) | 20 |
| Wednesday, week 2 | 25 | 15 |
| Thursday, week 2 | 30 | 10 |
| Friday, week 2 | day off | day off |
| Saturday, week 2 | 30 | 10 |
| Sunday, week 2 | 40 | 0 |
