You’re taking a very wise approach. On your idea to start running, I say “ awesome!” You’ll probably find the riding and running compliment each other nicely. My one piece of advice here is to take it slow. You always hear this, but it bears repeating: don’t get in a hurry to turn up the intensity or distance. Start at a mile or two, be patient and consistent, and only increase your distance by about 10% each week.
Thank you! I am planning to run to my dad's job which is two miles back and forth. So about four miles in total. Not sure if that is a lot for a first-timer. The only reason for starting running is because I am planning on doing an 80-mile ride before I leave for grad school in the last week of August. So I hope running does help me. I also want to keep getting fit because is now my new lifestlye. So I don't want to lose everything I've worked for so hard. Today, a MEDIUM shirt fit me.
