When I took my decision to start running, I knew only an advice, heard or read somewhere: you can’t just “start to run” otherwise you will hurt yourself (imagine a voice from the great beyond, and a pointing finger). So, let’s google for “running training program” and – voila – the usual billion of results: fascinated, I started reading the first ones, then a story about a young guy who did not pay attention to the weather conditions and died preparing a marathon – ouch, pretty scary.
I then decide to play safe, went to About.com, and registered for an email-based program targeted to half-an-hour running after three weeks of training. Actually the program went very well, except that after a couple of weeks it went crazy, and started sending messages about motivation, so I missed the last few lessons: but then I was already considering myself “a runner”.
