How to Start Running?

Motivation is the main issue here? Do you agree?

Can you get off the sofa? Perhaps there's something to watch on TV?

Is it cold outside? I live in Scotland, it gets dark early, it can be windy and rainy - yuk!

Is it hot outside? Where do you live? Perhaps you have different problems compared to a Northern European?

Can you do it? What's stopping you?

I have my own opinion on how to get started. I have stopped and started on many occasions. The hardest thing is always to get out there that first time.

It's not that much fun getting fit, but it's great to be fit. It can be a long hard road to get there.

I did my first run for six months last week. It took me two months to get round to it. Hopefully, I'll get out again soon. I'll write about my next run, here in beautiful Burns country (Ayrshire, Scotland) in my next blog update.

And feel free to ask for advice on how to start running?.
