What are reasons why you don't jog?

For me it's because I don't want to play kick-ball at the same time.:embarassed:
Also why I don't sit down real quick either :blushing:

    Had back surgery. I now have two rods and 12 pins in my lower back. Sustained running is contraindicated.

    Because jogging is such a 70's concept. I prefer to run.

    Boobs. Heat. Meth heads and other assorted street zombies. Would rather do other things I find more fun.

    But mostly boobs.

    I have a bad hip, and I screwed it up when I tried running/jogging. Also I have kids at home and a husband who works whackadoo hours often. I think when both kids are in school in the fall I'll give it another go.

    I can jog in spurts.. too heavy to jog longer for now.
  • Boobs, and embarrassment. I don't want anyone to see me get tired and stop.

    I jog a little but I'm mainly trying to work up enough stamina to do it longer.

  • the hardiest part of running is putting your shoes on and leaving the front door the actually run aint that bad its all a mind game guys i love running like i bike skip box lots of staff but running makes me feel gd and ive actually worked out each to their own i say do wot ever sweat like a pig to look like a fox n all that :) but at the end of the day..it gets dark thats my 2 cents and you can have them for free :)

    Because it's boring and it hurts. I'd much rather kickbox, cycle, step, or do other various cardio exercises.

    I wanted to jog/run...I really did. I even started the C25K and was really loving it...problem is that I have fibromyalgia and arthritis. Two weeks on the program, and I ended up in bed for a week unable to move.

    Now I water jog...endurance and cardio without the jarring impact to my sensitive body. It was a total win for me.
