Tips

  • The most important tip i can give you is to wear appropriate footwear, something with support for your arches and padding at the heel, if you are unsure ask your local sports shop

  • If running at night, some kind of light/fluorescent clothing is recomended

  • Although you can jog anywhere you like, grass is kinder on the knees than concrete

    • Effort levels: 
    To get the most from your jog be sure that you are moving at the right speed - if you can say a few words at a time without pausing for breath you're at the right speed. You're going too QUICK if - you cant talk at all. You're going too SLOW if - you can talk constantly without pausing for breath
