🏃♂️ Part 1: Before You Run
1. Health Check First
Got heart issues, diabetes, or severe obesity? Check with your doctor first.
Skip running if: sick, injured, exhausted, pregnant (without doctor’s OK), or sleep-deprived.
Joints sore? Muscles tight? Heal fully before hitting the pavement.
2. Gear Up Smart
Shoes: Pick running-specific kicks. Flat feet? Get support. High arches? Choose cushion. Replace worn-out soles!
Socks: Seamless or sports socks → fewer blisters.
Clothes: Summer? Wear breathable fabric (not cotton!). Winter? Layer up: base (wicking) + mid (warmth) + outer (windproof).
Extras: Night run? Wear reflective gear. Ladies → high-support sports bra.
3. Warm Up Right
Summer: 10 mins (light sweat)
Winter: 15-20 mins
Try these:
Leg swings (30 sec)
Knee circles (15 sec each way)
Butt kicks (30 sec)
High knees (30 sec x 2 sets)
Mini-sprints (50m x 3)
🌤️ Part 2: While Running
1. Nail Your Form
Head: Look ahead, chin slightly down
Posture: Stand tall, lean slightly forward
Arms: Bent 90°, swing front-back (not side-to-side)
Feet: Land mid/front foot under your hips → quiet steps
Knees: Keep ’em soft → no locking or inward collapse!
2. Pace Yourself
Golden rule: Increase weekly distance by ≤10%
New runner? Focus on distance → not speed. 8-9 min/km is fine!
Frequency: Beginners: 1-3 runs/week. Rest days = progress days!
Rhythm: Steady pace > sprinting. Save energy!
3. Listen to Your Body
Heart rate too high? Slow down or stop.
Dizzy? Chest pain? STOP → see a doctor.
Watch your step! Avoid rocks, holes, cracks.
💤 Part 3: After Your Run
1. Cool Down
Walk/slow jog 5-20 mins → lower heart rate gently
2. Stretch & Refuel
Stretch: Hold each move 20-30 sec (quads, hamstrings, calves)
Eat/drink: Water + electrolytes + carbs/protein (e.g., banana + yogurt)
3. Rest Smart
Sleep: 7-8 hours nightly (+ 30-60 min nap if possible)
Days off: Take 1-3 rest days/week
Cross-train: Swim, bike, or hike → balance your body

Running’s simple – but doing it right takes know-how. Train smart, recover well, and your body will thank you!
