    It is hard on your body, but it is also hard on cals. :flowerforyou:

    Running is my absolute first choice in cardio training.



    I believe humans are built to run.

    I am finding that swimming is the best callorie burn for me, but then I have had an ACL replacement (right knee), cartilage removed from my right knee 3 times and undiagnosed damage to my left knee that has put me on crutches for more than a week twice.

    For me the most important thing getting into running has been realising that its not just about fitness, it is about taking it slowly to build up strength in ligaments etc to prevent injury. Fourth attempt has been successful, this time around doing it barefoot which has cured my knee pain!
