Do you need lessons for running?

Question

do you need lessons to learn how to play it?

Answer 1

No. You don't need lessons for running and i don't think you need a coach. But getting some good tips on running will help.

Answer 2

You need someone to learn from such as a coach or your peers. You need to learn how to train and how to pace yourself.

Answer 3

I  personally don't think coaches or lessons will help at all, plus they often cost money! what you need to do is find a runner who does well in races and just ask for some tips. That should help quite a bit.

Answer 4

No, just some education...A simple google search on efficient pacing and training strategies is enough.

Answer 5

Lessons?  No, you don't need "lessons" to run.  However, if you have a coach, they can often help you greatly, by giving you workouts, teaching you proper form, helping you stretch and ice, and by pushing you harder than you thought you could run in a race.
