  4 0 I would wholeheartedly suggest John Bingham's books, The Courage to Start, Running for Mortals and Marathoning for Mortals. John is known by his running nickname, "The Penguin," (with the motto "Waddle on!") and his approach is geared very much to the person you describe yourself to be. He really knows his stuff, and writes for runners and walkers at all stages about running from where you are, not getting injured, not overdoing it, and finding and celebrating the kind of runner or walker you are.

  1 0 I've heard good things about this free program at Green Lake. You should also get fitted for a pair of shoes; I've had great luck at Sound Sports downtown. A store like that might also give you leads on coaching. Good luck! mister_fusspot answered in Fitness & Exercise 9 months ago | Report Comment on this answer Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.

  0 0 You should read Born to Run. It's not going to teach you how to run but you will learn a lot about running and be endlessly entertained in the process. http://www.amazon.com/Born-Run-Hidden-Superathletes-Greatest/dp/0307266303 infernactual answered in Fitness & Exercise 9 months ago | Report Comment on this answer Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.
