[quote=Anonymous]I'm 42, and have been a runner all of my adult life. I love it - love the mental boost I get from the endorphins, the feeling of pushing my body. I love big races - there's nothing better than running alongside crowds cheering you on, and the camaraderie that comes with it. But...I've recently come to acknowledge what I've known for a while - running is terrible on your body, and at least for me, not something I can do with any frequency anymore. My knees are shot, my hips hurt after runs...just not worth it to me anymore. I still allow myself one run every other week, and adding in a lot of weight training has helped me with the joint pain. My advice - find something else to help you attain this physical goal. Swimming has been mine, and I always feel great afterward. Just make sure you get waterproof earbuds, because it is otherwise boring!! [/quote]
