Some experts advise that no one should start jogging for 10 km without prior any training. Training should be planned or scheduled prior to take up this distant or more. As our muscles need to develop to resist frequent stress that may have 4 to 5 times of our body load on our feet during jogging. This requires your body strength and endurance to withstand the load pounding on your body.
Strength can be developed through regular exercise and taking up proper nutrition. Some joggers go to Gym to build some muscles by taking up weight lifting exercise. However, when we are going to Gym for light weight lifting, please get advice from the expert too. Of cause other advantages of having strength training are reducing risk to injuries and could increase your speed too.
A proper training schedule has been suggested by some regular joggers with several months ahead of the actual marathon date. The training may start 2 to 3 months or even more prior to the big day. To do this, we need high commitment and discipline. Well ahead training accomplishment will normally give results with full satisfaction at the end of the day.
Other look out is your age - normally any long distant jogging or marathon will your age. Based on some marathon organizers, the youngest age limit is 18 years old or some even set it the lowest is 17 years. Reasons are not certain.
Well, that is all for today. To be continued in the next issue.
