Safety First.
on a long run. Powdered sports drinks are cheaper than pre-mixed;, it is advisable to go with a cost-effective one. Make sure that you protect yourself from chafing everywhere you need. That means Band-Aids over your nipples, and Vaseline between your toes. If you are feeling ambitious, scales up your distance, but by no more than a mile a week.
What to Wear.
Get good quality jogging shoes; don't go for the high end of the market. All the sophisticated technology, motion control and specialized support that they use, more often than not, result in an unnatural position for your feet; and they can cause injury and damage over the long run. If you are a woman, the first rule is get the best sports bra. Unwanted jiggling and swinging is just the most unfortunate part of being active if you are a woman. Some women use double bras for the best effect - an encapsulating bra first, and a compressive bra on top and get socks meant for running. Cotton will just give you calluses.
Keep Motivated
Make sure that you stay in touch with your local running events, so that you can join in races when it happens. Nothing works for motivation like a good healthy ego when you get beaten in a race.
Don’t do it alone.
Jogging is to have fun. Remember to loosen up when you are out there; fitness sports like jogging can be like playing. And when you feel that you don't really have your heart in it and feel like giving up, the community will work to keep you going., join a running group in your area
Avoiding injury, this means that if you ever have aches and pains, you need to ice them immediately. Never jog alone at night; make sure that you stay out of the way of traffic; there are too many accidents that have happened to joggers to ever think that an approaching car will see you in time. Don't dress too warmly, and avoid frostbite. Safety does come first; even when you don't have the time for it.
