How do I get my body to run a lot outside?

[ElisabethGarcia27]

I've tried before but gotten really tired and hungry lol. But I really want to dedicate myself in running and not getting tired. Is it better to run on a machine at home , outside or gym?

Start out slow. Short distances. Only add to the distance when you notice your body is getting used to the distance. For example, run a block or two and notice how out of breath you get and how soon this happens. Then add more distance to it. Eventually you will be addicted to running as this is your body's way of thanking you for giving it exercise it craves.

I enjoy walking at a very fast pace. The goal is to get my heart rate up. We have long winters where I live. In the spring I am out of shape and ready to get back in shape. Using Google Maps to create routes is a huge help as it will tell you exactly how far each route is. My starting route is 1 mile. I do the fast walking thing on that route for two weeks. Then I increase it to 1.5 miles for a couple weeks In a couple months I am up to 2.5 miles once every other day. It is recommended to take a break from exercising. By skipping a day my body still burns calories as if I walked that day and I am giving my body a breather.

The goal is to get the heart rate up. Fast-pace walking is just as effective as running without the constant pounding of the skeletal frame and body.

You need to build up your stamina. It's up to you whether you run on a machine or outside. Some people like to run inside so they don't have to worry about the heat slowing them down, but others would rather run and see the scenery. Wherever you choose to run, you just need to slowly go more and more. If you've never exercised before, then of course you're going to get tired right away! Start by running for 15 minutes every day. It won't take a lot of time out of your day. 15 min might tire you out now, but eventually it will feel easy. Once you can run for 15 min and not get tired, try running for 30 min.

Well, getting tired and hungry is sort of a side effect of exercise - I don't really know what you were expecting when you ran but getting tired is pretty high on the list.

You need to learn what foods are good for running/endurance exercise.
