Re: Runners over 50
I've done a lot of running in my life and managed to reach quite a high standard - 31 mins for 10km. Won lots of races but I've been struggling with the whole concept of running for a few years now. At my age - 58 - I find it is too severe on the body and diet. What I mean by this when you get older most like, or prefer, stability but running hard doesn't give you that at all: your hunger pangs are more severe the more you run and your thirst can be prodigious at times - I get drunk from alcohol fumes after a long run; not only this but your state of mind constantly fluctuates from thinking you are still 20 to considering you are now nearly whatever - old! I feel worn out by it and I realise it is time to think of running in a totally different way or ways. I really think I just need to jog a little to keep relatively fit (if it does me good) and drop the extreme side of it entirely. I might well call a halt to it completely.Re: Runners over 50

Sorry RunYoung50. I know you were only after replies from the ladies but it's hard for anyone a bit into exercising to stay silent. It seemed that any ladies who wanted to post about running had already done so.Re: Runners over 50
