Running tips for overweight people?

start out slow. take more walks. work your way up-you actually DON'T HAVE stamina. aches are part of that.

I'm not sure what you can do to make it not ache (other than practice). Just pase your self and you should be fine. When you first start running it's natural to think that you'll never be able to do it because as soon as you start you get the thought that you just want to stop. However, when you have no choice to do it, some how you just can. The most important thing to remember is that you can do it. You might feel the urge to stop running or to walk, but if you just don't you'll see that it's not that bad. Then when it's over not only will you realize that you can run and it wasn't that bad, but you'll feel a huge sense of accomplishment.

I'm a veteran runner and i was small and did not have what it took to be a runner for the first two years that i ran now i am the captain of my team five years later. i think all you got to do is set your mind to it. if you have a long period of time to do this you should start out with one K then work your way up first perfecting your distance then working on the time. as for your legs everyone has that problem.I suggest that if it gets really bad put some icy hot or bengay on them after your workout also try to do an 800 meter cool-down and warm-up before and after your runs

Also this is very important you have to have good shoes that fit your feet and feel good when you run. go online to find the mileage your shoes can get before you have to change them out. if your current shoes are over then you should go to an actual running store and get them to personally fit you for the perfect shoe for what you can afford.

I cannot stress how important good shoes are. Go to a shoe store for running shoes and get fitted for shoes. They will make all the difference. They can analyze your feet and how you walk/run using a computer and provide you with the best shoes for you. I'm 6'4" and weigh 230 pounds and with my shoes they have all the cushioning I need.

Stretch before and when you run so which you do no longer pull any leg muscle groups, and in case you have a puzzling time respiratory, positioned your palms at the back of your head and stretch your elbows to the edge of you to open your lungs. good success and save up the best artwork :)

Try putting some good insoles in your running shoes.. and make sure the shoes are fit proper for running.

rub your legs before you run maybe for about 10 minutes. If that doesnt work rub ice on it. all over your leg it'll help. if both those doesnt work then i don't know
