So it has been a long time since the last post. I apologize.

I finished another year of school, moved back home for the summer and started an internship at the local paper.

And I’ve found time to run everyday! And hopefully I’ll find time to post weekly running news and tips and anything else I find.

So let’s get this rolling. Thanks to Complete Running Network, I found 100 beginner runner tips. It’s summer time; the work may have slowed down a bit, students you’re not in school anymore, so how about sign up for a local 5k in the fall and begin to run this summer?

These 100 beginner runner tips will help get you started.

Check out the list, but here are ten from the list I hold dearly and swear by:

14. Find a committed running partner. It is much harder to skip out on a run when you have someone else depending on you.

16. It gets easier.

17. Accept and appreciate the fact that not every single run can be a good one.

18. Be prepared to remove the words “can’t” and “never” from your vocabulary.

29. Hydrate. Make it a habit to drink water throughout the day.

46. Make sure you cut your toenails short enough so they don’t jam into your shoes!

60. Run facing traffic.

67. Get assessed for the right kind of running shoes.

69. At first, keep your runs short and slow to avoid injury and soreness so you do not quit.

91. Forgive yourself. Over-ambitious goals usually lead to frustration and giving up on your fitness plan. If you miss a goal or milestone, let it go and focus on the next opportunity to get it.
