๐โโ๏ธ Starting Running in 2026? Start Smart! ๐โโ๏ธ
Thinking of taking up running this year? Itโs a brilliant way to boost fitness, mental health, and overall wellbeing ๐
One of the biggest causes of running-related injuries we see is doing too much, too soon. Your feet, muscles, and tendons need time to adapt.
Our top tips to stay injury-free:
โ๏ธ Start slowly โ short runs or run-walk sessions are perfect
โ๏ธ Build up mileage and intensity gradually
โ๏ธ Rest days are just as important as run days
โ๏ธ Listen to your body โ niggles are a warning sign, not something to push through
If youโre planning to make running part of your 2026 routine, taking it steady now can save you from pain and setbacks later ๐ฃ
