Running can be quite addictive if you enjoy it, and all you need to do is follow few tips and keep at it. Many new runners head out enthusiastically with some amazing goals, but often find themselves in a spot where they lose interest. Here we have listed few tips that can help new runners to stick to their goals.
1. Motivation is the key
You have to keep yourself motivated, for example take your favourite dress out of the closet that doesn't fit. Try it on everyday and tell yourself that you have to get in it soon.
2. Dont go solo
There are times when you just dont want to get out of bed, but if you have friends counting on you then you just cant miss it.
3. Invest in the right pair of running shoes
Know that there is a huge difference between running and walking shoes! Sneakers are designed for runners and have thicker soles cushion.
4. Make running a habit
Dont skip it even for a day, no matter what. If it means getting out only for a few minutes per day, do it.
5. Inhale through your nose and mouth
When you run your body needs more oxygen to support running or even brisk walking. Use both your nose and mouth to breathe while running.
6. Strengthen your thigh muscles
Most new runners complain of knee pain, which is because of the weakness in the thighs and hips. Do a warm before running and include specific exercise to strengthen your thigh muscles.
