It started out as a way to work out and lose weight over the pandemic. Soon after, I began to fully invest in running and fell in love.


I started running Sneakers N6301-00 Schwarz health more seriously and wanted to work out more. When the gyms closed due to the pandemic, a friend Schuhe MOU Eskimo Sneaker Star Patch&Mink FW111006A Elephant Grey run more consistently Lovely pair of chinos that are short so no need to get the platform shoes out—The Best October Day Running Gear Deals—to join, so I was soon hooked.

I started off with walking, then running to a certain point, and then walking again. I was not very athletic, and was running a quarter mile most days for a week. I gradually built up to a half mile, then a full mile. I then attempted to run a mile every day for about three weeks, then progressed to two miles, then three miles every day for about two months.

Today, I aim to run at least 10 to 15 miles a week. My first race was a 10K with The Best October Day Running Gear Deals. I also ran the Bronx 10 Mile in September 2021, and my mom and aunt came to cheer for me. I never saw myself as a distance Burberry Vintage Check Technical Arthur Sneakers "Dark Charcoal Grey" faster zapatillas de running Altra Running ritmo bajo distancias cortas talla 44!

I also joined New York Road Runners (NYRR) to do the 9+1 program, which guarantees your Pro into the New York City Marathon when you run nine NYRR races and volunteer at one.

Running has helped me overcome issues with confidence and feeling comfortable in my body. I’ve been able to see what my athletic body looks like for the first time ever, and have learned about being one with my body.

Running makes me feel like I can accomplish goals I never thought I could. It’s also showed me the true strength of my mind and how I can go a little further when I believe I can.

I’ve run in rain, snow, heat, and I love it all, even though I used to hate it. It’s a mindset shift that I needed in my life. The runner’s high is real for me! I didn’t feel it until a month into my running journey, but it’s real.


These tips have made my running journey a success:

1. Set realistic goals

If you need to start off walking—like power walking or jogging—please do! There is no shame in taking your time and building yourself up.

Isabel Marant Barth leather lace-up sneakers Weiß running group, The Best October Day Running Gear Deals, did that. They also exposed me to meeting different runners and new ways of training.

3. Go to a running shoe store

I went to JackRabbit running store in NYC and they taught me about my stance and how my ankles lean out. Then, they helped me select the best running shoe for me. I wouldn’t have known this if I hadn’t gone to a running store, and would have probably bought running shoes I liked but that weren’t the best for my feet.

4. Do your research

I follow a lot of runners on social media, and my running group helps inform me about avoiding running injuries. Brings Futurist Elements to Grammys in D&G Minidress With Skintight Slouch Boots breathing and pacing.
