How do I start running to train for track?

Question

I mean how far should I run since I am beginning? When is the best time to run? I plan on running winter and spring track. I am kind of afraid to run around my neighborhood because the men look perverted.

Answer 2

well i usually run in the park or at a track. if you live near a high school, that's also a great place to run. you can think about joining a gym too so that you can use their treadmills.

there's a lot of stuff you can do. it depends how good you are to begin with. if you can run a mile, you can keep running that faster each day until you're at a good time. i couldn't even run a mile without stopping when i first started running so i used to run for 5 min, walk for 2, and repeat that. then i keep building up my time and distance.

if you have people to run with or if you have preseason for track, run with them. it's great motivation to keep going and your stamina will improve sooo much/

Jogging is always the place to start. Start by jogging maybe a mile a day, or if you want to do sprinting, run 100 meters and then rest for a period and do it again. As you get more conditioed you can increase on those two work outs (Longer jogs, farther, and more sprints).

Best time of day to run is around dusk or dawn (less heat)

You could always get away from your neighborhood to a track or such.

Lastly, run on grass when possible, it's better for avoiding injuries.

Eat bananas, they will help you to avoid painful cramps and stay hydrated

Hope I helped.
