    Also if you exercise with other people you won't get bored.
    I twisted my ankle running on grass and the last time I went running with anyone it was so boring that I nearly wept.

      Get some proper running shoes. If you use road running shoes and you run on grass and mud then you are very likely to fall over.

      You must know some really boring people. Everyone I know runs with someone else so they have an excuse to go to the pub afterwards.

        I know so many boring people that I do wonder how I cope.

          Running seems an unnecessary part of the "going to the pub" process.
          B00med!

              It could be true, I've been running on and off for about 14 years, currently run between 55km and 60km a week 10k in 40mins. If I ask anyone my age they recon 25-26, but Im 32 pushing on 33 . Saying that lots of running can give you facial jowls, I can see it my cheeks a bit these days.

                    The gym's much better, still boring but my joints won't be as buggered in later life.

                    I always run off-road due to foot problems causing me to have an op 20 years ago. I am very lucky to have woods which are Crown Estate property within 100 yards, which of course also has positive effects on my house value.


                    NB: It is well worth investing in the best running shoes you can afford.
