Spring weather is on its way and that means we can all get outside to run, jog and walk!
But it can be difficult for a more sedentary body to start moving suddenly or for someone who is more accustomed to a treadmill to start running outside.

Here are some helpful tips for starting to run outside 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️

1️⃣ Ease into training! Start with the run-walk method to build your endurance in a new environment.
2️⃣ Wear the right shoes. Running on trails is very different than running on pavement. Specialty running stores can help you pick the right shoe for your foot type & for your running experience.
3️⃣ Hydrate! Ensure you’re meeting your hydration needs - especially on warmer days.
4️⃣ Get into strength training & cross-training. The best way to prevent injury is to make sure your whole body is strong. Add in different forms of aerobic exercise and strength training exercises a couple times per week.
5️⃣ Don’t forget to stretch!!

Need help with a strength training or stretching program? One of our physiotherapist’s can help you out!
