Running
It would be a good question to ask what is the difference between jogging and running? Fundamentally there is no difference. However, I believe that running begins when you want to progress from a steady, same paced programme to increasing your speed – for example to improve your personal best (PB).
To achieve this, not only is a different training programme required but a whole new attitude as well. To achieve your new goal you have to teach your body to run faster. This involves speed training of which there are different types; intervals, hills, fartlek and time trials. There is a physical reason for speed training as well as a new mental approach.
If you are new to jogging or running, you will not know how you are going to perform until you start to train on a regular basis. It may transpire that you are actually very quick or that you can run for very long distances. This is part of the joy of developing yourself.
