If running is so flipping great, then why do nearly all the avid runners i know always seem moan & complain about all their little niggling and chronic injuries they are carrying that ultimately stop em running? It doesn't seem to matter if they be super lean international athletes or fun runners.

Some of the older ones appear to have osteoarthritis in their hips knees and ankles, yet they stubbornly persist in flogging the roads wearing their super duper €300 running shoes until they have completely worn down their knee cartilage and end up under the care of an orthopedic surgeon, who usually advises em to buy a bicycle.

You could say the very same of hurlers, footballers, golfers... Any active sport in fact. You do it for the sense of achievement, the euphoria from running a marathon and the sense of fulfillment.

Running has its uses...Running for the bus. Running down the stairs on Christmas morning. Running to beat the brothers to get the wings of the chicken when the Ma takes it out of the oven. Outside of that type of running not a big fan.

I do the odd Tri. Don't train for them I just turn up. Open water swimming...euphoric. Cycling with the wind on my face...euphoria.

And then comes the run...uugh. But I treat it as the home straight to the pub...orgasmic

Because a bad run is still better than living an unhealthy sedentary lifestyle. The niggles and injuries far outweigh a lifetime of cardiovascular disease, obesity etc. Osteoarthritis starts in your late teens and early 20s. It's onset happens in later life because of inactivity in your younger years not through running. Just an inaccurate stat because der people are taking up running for the first time in their older years. €300 for a pair of runners is only peanuts compared to €3k bicycle btw. Running is the cheapest hobby they're is.

€180 for my running runners, €140 for my crossfit runners. I've two sets of running runners that I go between depending on the session. Now I also have trail runners and walking runners. I'm seriously craving No Bull trainers atm suppose it adds up

Was a road racing cyclist on and off for years then got and into mountain biking and wind surfing. Had a few crashes whilst racing, but luckily most of my injuries were just superficial cuts and grazes. No chronic overuse injuries. Did quite a lot of running during off season to maintain my cardiovascular fitness. While out on my thrice weekly 10k runs i would meet lots of serious club and international runners who always seemed to be complaining about their various niggling injuries, and older runners who were in severe pain. I eventually came to the conclusion the impact of running was gonna fuck up my joints, as i didn't fancy the idea of being crippled with osteoarthritis in later years, i packed it in. I'm convinced anyone over the age of 30 shouldn't be running, unless they want to end up on the orthopedic surgeons operating table.

Now I'm into low impact stuff- sea kayaking, riding my bike, Open water swimming, hill walking,

I do my sport for keeping myself fitish and the feeling good afterwards, there's no achievement craves or highs. Anyhow gave up running 7 years ago after some 30ish years of doing it, when I finally admitted to myself that I bloody hate it, that it's torture and that I'm not good at it. Since I only do what I really enjoy: cycling, swimming and roiding.

Yeap I agree. Taking up running after 40 is madness. You're doing more harm than good. You'd be better off walking or getting on a bike or some other form of low impact training.

Fair enough. I've been involved in running on and off for 10 years now. I didn't do anything else. 2 years ago I discovered crossfit, its hard training and definitely not low impact but its the best move I ever made. Running is stronger then it ever was before and at 45 I learned to do a handstand and pull up. Maybe ill be crippled in years to come but I'm not avoiding doing what I love and gaining new skills because I'm afraid of that. Fuck it, could be run over by a bus tomorrow ill keep running and lifting for now

.... For an amateur runner like me that plods along at a snails pace, the clock watching is the worst thing you can do. It will break your spirit. Would you believe me if I told you that I run to check out houses (not rob them!)... But to see new ones being built, renovations, gardens etc...

Where were you 8 years ago SB when I needed that advice

My mistake was joining an athletics club where most people were good runners and totally obsessed with time. Sub-50 10k's were the norm and that was the ladies

Under 40 mins was expected for the lads, where's the enjoyment in that?

I club ran for years, it just bloody steals the joy. I do two proper run sessions a week, one is intervals and one long one with tempo in the middle. I love them. The most I do is 12km. The only time I've to run under pressure is a mile x2 for workouts like Murph. I would do a few k everyday but it's just for pleasure.

I actually think marathons are harder as you tend to run faster and it’s more realistic to run a whole marathon. Ultras are just a long run broken up with multiple picnics along the way.

. They are incredible distances. I did a marathon distance last week and it took me 4 hours. I can't even begin to think what 24 hours running is like. How many breaks do you take over that time?

I’d say I have a 50/50 split on running/walking for ultras depending on how hilly it is. Tend to run the flats/downhill and walk the hills until you’re legs are in pieces when you walk more.

In terms of breaks for the 100km there were rest stations every 10km or so but I only stopped for 10 mins max as it was better to keep moving.

The 24 hours I basically just keep going until the early hours of the morning when I stopped to have some sleep for about 5 hours although I regretted that. It was a looped event so I just grabbed food and drink and had them as I walked. My personal favourite was rolling up a pizza and eating like a burrito. Learnt that trick from one of dean karnaze’s books.

Any tips for running in a strong head wind? Since lockdown would run the beach near me few times a week in the morning, usually hitting 4 or 5k on it depending if do a bit more than 1 single lap up and down. But yday morning was near impossible to run back up it with the wind in the face, even tried zig zagging up and down the beach so it wasn't directly in my face.

Have ran it in the autumn and winter gales the past year and not been as bad as yesterday I thought.

Important to stay active, keeps you healthy, do what you like doing and do it for yourself.
