My brother recently started to join me on my runs, we are both training for wrestling and we try to get 2-3 miles 4 times a week for now, eventually we will start doing longer distances.
Question i have is regarding knee pain, my brother can barely run without getting horrible pain in his knees. He runs with nike free's 5.0 if the shoe makes any difference. Any tips for knee pain? (he is not fat 150lb 5'4 lean)R.I.P. ssj4veggeto1008

I tried a pair of 5.0s a few years ago and had the same issue due to the lack of sole cushioning. I recently gave them another shot as a forefoot runner with a more natural gait and now have zero issues. I would recommend to him just to work them into his shoe rotation every 5 runs maybe. If he's a heel striker, have him try a more traditional shoe with some support.

I always run alone. That way I can concentrate without someone yapping about something daft in my ear (I tried running with my sister and my mum and they drove me nuts with their talking lol).
I have taken my kids running, though, the two oldest ones. They really enjoy it but they do tend to get bored because I absolutely refuse to sprint with them.Viking to the core.

Did my second day today although I ran further than first session (one and a half times round my local park...brutal considering it was mostly uphill). I'm aiming to be able to run all the way round non-stop (it's about a mile and a bit). It's not much but I think it's a start.
I quite enjoyed it even though it was hard work, followed it by a few short-distance sprints...and then f*cked my leg up. Groin strain (I wouldn't mind but I'd done a lecture on it just the night before. Typical). Epsom salts in a hot bath sorted it out though (and a massive thank you to whoever recommended it, I feel awesome now lol) luckily.
I have come to a long-term goal decision but I'd like some input on that from the long-distance runners. The London marathon is held every April and is 26.2 miles long so that's my goal for next year but the question is...is it doable considering I can't even run a mile non-stop yet?Viking to the core.

Runners world forum has quite a few long term plans that are very doable. The key imo for success would be to not focus on the goal solely though. Doing anything you love in excess always carries the potential for burnout. Stay with a slow progression and just enjoy yourself. This will also keep you injury free.

The couch to 5k plan is the one I'm on at the moment and it recommends upping your mileage by 1/4 a mile per week spread out over three workouts so I thought I'd just continue it at that pace and see how it works out.
I'll definitely have a look, though, thanks.
I'll be dishing out some reps for help tonight, no time right now.Viking to the core.

Reading this thread has made me sign-up for a 5k in June. I can already run 1.5-2 miles without to much strain. Legs kill me though need to get some new shoes bad. Maybe a 10k by fall.. that may be to much. Had a small heart attack last August quite a feat if I can do it.. truthfully I feel stronger than before!

You can definitely do it, esmith! Bloody go for it!
I mentioned to my family that I'd like to do a 5k for charity later on in the year. Then they all pissed themselves laughing because they think I won't do it.
Great...thanks for the support guys...
Actually, I think a bra thats 12 cups too big is more supportive right now. Ugh.Viking to the core.

Sup guys! I run about 5 miles a day 6 days a week. I ran a half marathon back in September? Then the Army 10 miler in October. Was fun.
Anyway I'm doing the Crossroads 17.75K. (11 Miles) in June!Misc Tutorial: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=148643053
