I love this. I don’t run, but I did start walking in February. (After not doing any physical activity for years). I am doing 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. And I let myself walk at whatever speed I’m feeling that day. It doesn’t matter how many miles I walk, as long as I’m doing 30 minutes. Sometimes I can walk fast. I have ovarian cysts and endometriosis. I get a lot of pain, especially in my thighs from my stomach cramps. So I give myself permission to walk slow on those days.
Yes! I started this - 30 minutes of walking followed by 20 minutes of body weight Pilates (usually 10 min lower body and 10 min of abs) 4-5 days a week - and it’s so sustainable for me compared to alllll the other things I’ve tried! I don’t enjoy high impact, I don’t enjoy too much upper body resistance, and yoga feels too slow. So I just do what feels good and I do it consistently
if you're able to walk longer then do this, you will feel even better, you can even take breaks and sit on a bench for a while if needed (i say this bc i was also starting from similar level as you)
Ive been jogging (more like trotting along) while pregnant and the go at your own pace and walking has been a game changer to enjoy the process of where Im at right now ☺️
My tip is to run with a friend who won't judge you for your pace and will give you entertainment as you run. I had a friend training for a marathon who convinced me to run with her during her easy runs, and it was so fun just talking with her as I jogged that I kept running. Now, I'm training for a marathon a year later and doing the same thing for another friend who said she would never enjoy running.
Yes! I have a friend who did this for me, she runs cross country and brought me on a few runs with her, I had always wanted to run but didn’t know where to start. Now I run regularly and am training for my first half marathon!
i’ve been running straight for literally 8 days and i’ve watched ALL of your videos and shorts on running, you’ve literally INSPIRED me to run and i’m LOVING it so far! I’m even loving your running playlist as well! Because of this, I finished my first ever 5k today…. sure i was going at like 13 minutes per mile and the whole run took me around 40 ish minutes to complete BUT IT WAS SO FUN AND I ADORED IT!! Thank you Keltie!! ❤❤❤
Don't run with a friend who goes at a much higher speed than you and can't be arsed to slow it down but also wants to run "with" you so they keep running literal (albeit somewhat big) circles around you as you try to trot along. Absolute demotivator. Best running buddy I ever had was my parent's neighbour's dog. Was also the only time in my life I managed to keep up a regular rhythm, going running three times a week. Just absolutely loved to get to pick up that beautiful boy who was always so excited to see me and run with me. ❤ Those were the days... 🥲
All great tips! One tip I would like to add: dress as if it’s 10degrees warmer that it actually is…🥵 First K you’ll be chilly but you’ll be super comfy after that initial coldness🏃🏿🏃♂️🏃🏻♀️
You know what, this is glorious advice. Because I hate running. I run sometimes because I have to for work. And when I do I’m obsessed with speed, cadence and trying to pace myself. Or worse shitty in myself if I don’t do as good as I did when I was in good shape. Thank you for this
I've always hated running, but I've found that listening to piano or ambient music helps me stay calm and steady during runs. It's far more pleasant now
The algorithm be algorithming today because why did this pop up today being the first day I took up running? The part about not being embarrassed is a good tip, thank you!
I used to run with music, usually through the forest. Then I realized there are so many beautiful noises that I ditched the headphones - felt like being freed from a cage.
Love this so much!! I started running in high school for track and cross country which continued into college, so the only experience I had with running was on a team training hard, constantly trying to PR. This is excellent advice for finding the joy in running and taking the pressure off!
I have the same asics and I love them. They are great for long runs. I didn’t know I needed more foot room until I got my ASICS. Great shoes. Highly recommend
I’ve gotten into running lately and looking up is so important for proper running posture I used to run looking down because I’m afraid of tripping but it does make a difference to look up
thanks for sharing!! I love how your channel is so positive and how it instills fitness and discipline. so glad i came upon this among all the chaos on the internet
Number 7 is the most important guys!! When I started running, it was all about how many calories I burned and my pace had to be a certain number. I never enjoyed running when I thought of this. The best way to enjoy running is to forget about the damn numbers and JUST RUN. Thanks for the great advice 😊😊
I've been running lately to exercise a bit more and it surprisingly really increased my happiness, I felt a sense of freedom and fun, like being free that I haven't felt since I was a child. I can't do it for a long time yet but hopefully I’llmget there
This really hits different to hear. I just quit sports and it hurts to not do it anymore but then I remember why I quit. I was a good runner but I would mainly run distance. It wasn’t the distance or the pain that hurt me it was more so the mental pain from just everything. It didn’t feel like I loved my sport anymore…This helps to know in case I want to just do running again ❤
I got shin splints due to all the running we did in the Army, the doctor told me to start running on my toes which would strengthen the muscles around the shinbone. It worked! Been running that way ever since!
The advice to stop and walk is good. I try to do regular exercise and feel guilty if I don't do it that day because I am tired or sick. I need to remember that it's good to listen to my body and the tiredness is temporary. A few days off won't hurt me.
Even though I do cross country, it’s still hard for me to enjoy running sometimes 😂 But when that happens I remind myself that it’s helping me improve both physically and mentally. The tips in this video are also very helpful 💜
Tip for running coming from a girl who runs xc track and does other sports put your finger under your shoelaces if you can retie the shoes they are too loose and need to be tighter unless you want knee and hip problems
Don't just "turn on your music and go" 1. Use bone conduction earphones so you can be aware of your surroundings, i.e. vehicles, danger, etc 2. When you "go", go at a sustainable pace so that you can go again tomorrow and again and again.
Shin splints could be a result of weak muscles, lack of stability in your foot wear, training on uneven ground, overtraining and more. You can look up more information about it on how you can treat and/or prevent it❤

I personally go running without music. My go to route goes through a forest so hearing the birds, the leaves, my own footsteps and my breathing is kind of therapeutic. Music distracts me from my own rhythm. (I feel like many people struggle with rhythm and get exhausted quickly so running without music might be a better option)
I used to hate running because my feet and shins would always hurt before i would even break a sweat. Now that ive found proper shoes ive been on a running journey and i feel great!
Landing below your torso I used to do it But my calves does get tight easy So I experiment and found out that " over striding" is better .. well for me .. idk how others will EXpierence it For me .. landing under my cog l, I feel more force exerted on my leg in particular the calves, as I figure the foot is in a lengthen position for it to push of the ground However . Landing in front of your centre of gravity, with a bent knee , the leg isn't under the body so it doesn't have to support it as much as landing under your body, so less force is going up the foot Since running is a repetitive sport, u wanna minimize the repetitive forces which is the ground forces, not necessarily the contraction forces of the muscles , The ground forces that's going up the body is what causes injury And for me .. landing under the body causes that more likely than landing in front your body
BIG TIPS for walking and running: take more frequent smaller steps so your feet land underneath your centre of mass Always have your toes pointed straight forward Keep abs and glutes engaged If you want better foot health and running form get barefoot shoes or minimalist shoes. It should feel natural once you’re properly aligned and your knees will thank you
If you must have music, PLEASE use only 1 ear bud. Traffic and thugs and dogs and whatever... be alert, don't be a victim. Crazy to see people zoned out and oblivious running or biking on the streets and trails.
Normally I just run really early, or in the evening. If neither of those are an option for you, I suggest staying hydrated and wearing a hat+lots of breathable fabric.
Yes I wish people would stop thinking they are the main character because they are not. I see some people in public act that way its so odd. Social media probably got to their head.
I would like to throw in that running without music at least once a week/month (depending on mileage) is a necessity. It’s totally okay to be bored and not entertained for 30 mins. Embrace the silence - and the audible gasps for air 😅
My orthopedic doctor said my shin splints, were from a vitamin D deficiency. Proper nutrition is absolutely vital for our mental and physical health. ❤
Yep, there are a lot of factors. There was a time when my quads would keep locking up because my electrolytes were really low. Don't be afraid of salt in your diet, people.
Shin splints have been really bad for me recently I think it’s time to retire the cloud monsters… Lowkey thinking about starting a running shoe collection!
I vibe with the review. But I do have to say it could use some more details to help put everything in perspective, imo. There were some _great_ points that were covered, such as the bass register being iffy and the portable size. And the uses the bassist delved into were also good to know. It's just that we're at point A, and he's at point B, and I can see where he's at but now I need to know how he got there from point A. For that, I'd need the finer details to tie it all together. Just to be sure, did he have an opinion regarding the different bass modeling tones and effects tones, or was that the part he couldn't get to?
Forget the numbers?! Hun if it ain’t on Strava, it didn’t happen! In all seriousness though, my tip would be that if you don’t want to go for a run, don’t. Don’t make it a chore. Your weekly mileage goal is a goal, not a requirement. It doesn’t matter if you miss it once in a while. I’m a pretty decent/quick runner and people think I spend my life running. Not the case at all, I quite regularly go an entire fortnight without running once.
I love to run specifically sprints but I’ve learned that once I’m doing Runing my inner thigh toward groin area starts to hurt or discomfort you may say from walking

The last one is a great tip. Trying to always beat your pb can be demotivating at times.
Yep, I'm an XC runner prepping for my next season (training runs only rn and no friends to join me 😭) and I can't stop checking my pace.
Ive been jogging (more like trotting along) while pregnant and the go at your own pace and walking has been a game changer to enjoy the process of where Im at right now ☺️
The baby must be wondering why am I bobbing so much for a certain part of the day 😂
so proud ❤❤❤
I run alot, like 14+ miles every Saturday, but running while pregnant is actually crazy. Starting while pregnant is even crazier. Props to you lol
My tip is to run with a friend who won't judge you for your pace and will give you entertainment as you run.
I had a friend training for a marathon who convinced me to run with her during her easy runs, and it was so fun just talking with her as I jogged that I kept running. Now, I'm training for a marathon a year later and doing the same thing for another friend who said she would never enjoy running.

I guess I need a friend that runs😂!
I love to jog with a friend but I sometimes want to do it alone too like yk just running in silence
Love this!
#2 is everything.... Telling yourself you have full permission to go slow or stop changes everything.
I also find that running on grass is a lot more comfortable than on hard footing like pavement. Way better for the body long term!
Plus that little bit of extra resistance makes you a little stronger while running on pavement.
You forgot one. Stop for cute doggies and kitties!
I agree 👍 😊
yess 🥰
Oh yes!
❤❤❤❤
lol the main character thing it’s so real and funny
I let myself run as slow as I need to- jogging is ok and what matters is that you're moving forward!!

Congratulations on your 5k. I've thought of running one, must be a great experience. I recently began running again, so happy I did.
Painful shins / calf’s are also related to weak arches!
try barefoot shoes for better balance, and to build up your own arches.
also related to weak warm up session
Don't run with a friend who goes at a much higher speed than you and can't be arsed to slow it down but also wants to run "with" you so they keep running literal (albeit somewhat big) circles around you as you try to trot along. Absolute demotivator.

You're so inspirational I've always wanted to be a runner. I'm currently training.
I used to run with music, usually through the forest. Then I realized there are so many beautiful noises that I ditched the headphones - felt like being freed from a cage.
Yup, listening to the birds is relaxing.
Love your running content and this was super encouraging! ✨
TH-cam needa more people like you
Just went on a run earlier and I NEEDED to hear this! can't wait to go on my next run 😭
Love this so much!! I started running in high school for track and cross country which continued into college, so the only experience I had with running was on a team training hard, constantly trying to PR. This is excellent advice for finding the joy in running and taking the pressure off!

So glad you said the weak muscles part. Much bigger reason than footwear. I was about to go on a tirade lol
Learn good form got me! Gonna need to test if this is life changing. Cause I’m a swimmer and not a land person lol
What are those shoes! 😍 the pretty bluish greenish ones
they look like hokas!
@@thedivinezero4117 thanks! Now my search begins 👀
She is putting on Hoka Clifton 9 when she talks about #4 proper footwear. Light white/green/blue-ish pair she is running around - ASICS Novablast 4 😊

Look up! If youre not running youre not getting your fair share of outside and the views and the world around you! I love tbis ❤
This was a informative. Very good video

All excellent advice. Rucking is an even better calorie/fat burner. And less harsh impact on the knees
Heavy on the look up ! ✨
Thank you!😊

Great video, still hate running as a former basketball player lol
For me the trick to get started was to run downhill...I had to walk up the big mountain first, and it was just more fun going downhill!
Love this one, Keltie!❤
I love that you live in a place where its safe enough to run outside. I wish i had that.
It has been the same here in my place for some years now... 😢
Thank you!
That “look up” tip is underrated af. Lol!
Work up to throwing in some sprints. Being able to sprint several times for 20-30 seconds at not-quite-full speed feels wonderful.
You are absolutely RIGHT about those shin splints. Start slow
The advice to stop and walk is good. I try to do regular exercise and feel guilty if I don't do it that day because I am tired or sick. I need to remember that it's good to listen to my body and the tiredness is temporary. A few days off won't hurt me.
Number 3 and 4 for me!! Good advice!!
Great motivation as I'm about ready to go out for my morning run. 😊🎉
Yep on the right path. But I still hate running unless in the woods
Even though I do cross country, it’s still hard for me to enjoy running sometimes 😂 But when that happens I remind myself that it’s helping me improve both physically and mentally. The tips in this video are also very helpful 💜

Have you done a video on shin splints? (How to heal, proper footwear etc)
Listen to your favorite songs, whatever gets you pumped

Heavy on #3 👍
Thank you so much for these tips 😊😊😊
Squad, squad, deep squad.
I’m getting back into it! I got a question, what do you do on very hot days? Bonus points if you don’t have a treadmill
Normally I just run really early, or in the evening. If neither of those are an option for you, I suggest staying hydrated and wearing a hat+lots of breathable fabric.
😂😂😂Thank you!
Wow🤔...... i never seenT that building before either 🤣😂
Damnit. She's right
Yes I wish people would stop thinking they are the main character because they are not. I see some people in public act that way its so odd. Social media probably got to their head.
Do you have any specific things you do to strengthen muscles to prevent shin splints?
SHOES. SHOES. SHOES!! they make the difference. I am now able to run 1 mile in 13 minutes. Not even when I was young I was able to do that
I love the 3rd point cuz i am the one who always feel embarrassed 😅
I would like to throw in that running without music at least once a week/month (depending on mileage) is a necessity. It’s totally okay to be bored and not entertained for 30 mins. Embrace the silence - and the audible gasps for air 😅

In complete agreement
Shin splints have been really bad for me recently I think it’s time to retire the cloud monsters… Lowkey thinking about starting a running shoe collection!
I hated running until I became a Decathlete in college, yep a Decathlete, in Track and Field.
Alright 👍
I only run when chased 😅
I vibe with the review. But I do have to say it could use some more details to help put everything in perspective, imo.
There were some _great_ points that were covered, such as the bass register being iffy and the portable size. And the uses the bassist delved into were also good to know. It's just that we're at point A, and he's at point B, and I can see where he's at but now I need to know how he got there from point A. For that, I'd need the finer details to tie it all together.
Just to be sure, did he have an opinion regarding the different bass modeling tones and effects tones, or was that the part he couldn't get to?
Nice
Forget the numbers?! Hun if it ain’t on Strava, it didn’t happen!
In all seriousness though, my tip would be that if you don’t want to go for a run, don’t. Don’t make it a chore. Your weekly mileage goal is a goal, not a requirement. It doesn’t matter if you miss it once in a while.
I’m a pretty decent/quick runner and people think I spend my life running. Not the case at all, I quite regularly go an entire fortnight without running once.
