Who likes to run

Any Basilers enjoy running? I'm about to run for the first time in about a month. I'm not sure what's going to happen, but I'm hoping to run at least 3 miles (along with different core work outs every 200 meters or so).

I usually go for a jog 3/4 times a week, just to keep up my endurance/stamina. It's required that I have music while running, else I freaking hate it.

Running helps me alleviate stress. So I love running. Especially at night.

I freaking hate running, but I've been running 3 miles 2-3 times a week for a 5k I'm doing in June.
If it wasn't for the fact I wanted to impress my girlfriend, I would have never done it. I'm more for lifting than cardio.

I hate running; I hate exercise in general and never do it unless forced to.

However, I still have managed to drop from 155 lbs to 142 lbs over the past three months because I'm binge dieting.

No, I'm not anorexic nor bullimic.

When I have time, rarely now that AP's are coming up, I do enjoy running. Gets a lot off my mind

well, I've been running 5 miles everyday to get out of my video game addiction (my other thread)... I gotta say, I'm improving! I've lost weight, and I feel great after a run!

When I do, which I rarely, I love it. I used to be able to jog at a pace for about an hour? Not sure about now... Probably way outta shape

I prefer biking, but more for adventure as opposed to exercise

[quote=easyrolling]Last summer I used to run 10k KM about 5 times week. I've gotten into body building since, so I rarely do cardio anymore. But yesterday, I went to a different gym just to mix things up and I was able to run on the track for 20 minutes without feeling exhausted or taking any breaks. still got it I guess[/quote]

Cool! I ran 10ks, but only once a week. I upped it about a mile every week. I guess it's because I spent each day doing something else. Monday was sprints, Tuesday was lower body, Wednesday would be distance, and Thursday would be upper body. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were days I spent relaxing/lifting weights just for fun.

Anyway I'm heading out now so adios all. Have a good discussion, for me!

[quote=LazyLazyLazy]I am scared of hernias based on other peoples events so I bike instead[/quote]

I heard that hernias are mostly associated with lifting too much weight, but I could be wrong. That's interesting. WAY TO PLANT A SEED OF PARANOIA IN MY HEAD.
But I do wear briefs, which are compression-ish, hopefully aiding to prevent hernias.

@TheDStar you need to do something about it
Not lasting beyond 3 minutes is a sign that you are not taking proper care of your body
unless you are an old gramps

@Chema: I can 3 minutes without getting tired, so after that, I'm a zombie.

I like running, but I don't have a lot of stamina, so I can only run for 3 minutes.
