What are reasons why you don't jog?

My trainer says I'll ruin my knees if I run too much and that running should only be reserved for if someone is trying to kill you. :P

Bogus. I'd hire a new trainer.

I run and see no reason or excuse (better word) to not run.

I was running and I liked it but my knees do hurt the next day. I'm probably just too fat to run at this point. I guess I do have a bad knee and I'm only 22. I don't want to make it worse, so I use the elliptical instead. Maybe I can run once I'm skinny so there's not as much weight placed on them. >.<

I started running (slowly) at 245 lbs. 3 years later I've lost 90 lbs (up a few due to an injury that happened during my spring marathon). For some of you with shin/knee/leg/back pain the simple solution may be a proper shoe fitting! That can be easily done at a specially running store.

That's impressive, did you have a trainer or did you do it all on your own, because I'm desperately trying to be a runner, or jogger.

it's too hot outside lol

two reasons....
the right one and the left one. .. :noway:
dont want black eyes :laugh:

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:

*wonders if many people really got what this meant*


You should start wearing a cup BIG homie!

lols

I didn't get it until you reposted it. *doh*

I honestly don't know how you guys get around with those things anyway.

I know...I have been cycling through this thread since my boy posted it...and only like 2 other people caught on what he was trying to imply!

Thanks. All on my own.

Too much jiggling in the chest region!

Bilateral hip joint replacement. Don't want to develop premature failure of the implants, so I use an elliptical machine and do low impact/high intensity jazzercise. Used to run back in the day, even race-walked a marathon. But that's back then, and delaying replacement surgery is now.

because all my tracksuit bottoms are in the wash, lol

^^ This was me last night! Such an awful cop-out, but I hate running in shorts bc my thighs still (won't for much long *fingers crossed*) rub together. :blushing:

I don't jog because it hurts at least 4 places on my body, I can't throw cash down on a new pair of fancy shoes and a new sports bra, and I can't afford to sprain my ankle again, since I only have gravel to run on.

That, and I'm afraid of the coyotes laughing at me.

Honestly, it is just really uncomfortable, sometimes downright painful.

For me it's because I don't want to play kick-ball at the same time.:embarassed:

But seriously

Clifs...you should invest in some of these?

I wear these and MMA underwear to keep from playing kickball while running

I used to run. I can't anymore due to my heart condition. I miss it.

A good sports bra has not been designed for anyone over a B cup. You start moving like that and you have 10lbs of boob all over the place! lol

I happen to have an amazing sports bra for my D's. I zumba/run/jump and these puppies don't move.

Same. Champions brand. I run, elliptical, jumping jacks, zumba. Whatever. They're fine. I'm a D....almost over a D but I refuse to buy a bigger bra. Plus lost an inch on those puppies already, but I don't want to go smaller than a D. So small D is just fine......(sorry that was a boob rant)

Also, this thread reminds me of another reason not to run. People who run become like Jehovah's Witnesses: blathering on and on about how their religion is the One True Religion and if you have reservations, it's because you're ungodly. I would not want to become one of these people.

^this...oh my, so much ^this...

Preach it, sister.

Amen.

I have G-cups...jogging hurts my girls!!

This, and I have MS so jogging for me is more like a gallop... not fun.:ohwell:

I have no arch in my feet and my ankles are collapsed, which throws my knees out of whack, which effects my hips. I also have a minor scoliosis. So, high impact running/jogging= a whole lot of pain and no pleasure what so ever. I can walk really, really fast though. Passed a jogger the other day actually
