How to Run Faster than a Three-Toed Sloth...

or...

Learn How to Run Faster than when I'm Lying on the Couch

"How to Run Faster?" is the WRONG question!!! The philosophy we espouse at http://www.ordinaryrunner.com/ is "Running by Minutes" -- a less intense attitude, and tailored for SUCCESS, not automatic failure! Running by Minutes! (See the 7-Week Plan at the bottom of this page!)
That's it. It's really very simple.

The important thing:
Start slowly and build... Slowly and Consistenly!
Rather than being a slave to mileage logs, always trying to get in the right number of miles per day, even when you feel like your legs are made of Jello...
The Ordinary Runner simply puts in the MINUTES!
That way, if you feel great one day, you can run a little faster. (And if you feel like a slug, you can run a little slower.) Just run the number of minutes you have set for the day!
You still get your run in for the day, whether you feel great or feel lousy!
This is a much lower pressure approach to fitness, and much more enjoyable!

Remember when you were a kid... ... You could run! You did it all the time! Running is natural. God made us to run! That means you can learn to do it again! Just run!
You won't have to worry about how to run faster...
... The more you run, the faster you'll get, naturally!
It may have been a long time since you ran! But that doesn't mean you can't do it again!

Just remember the most important thing:
Just KEEP MOVING!
And don't feel the pressure that you've got to run fast! Remember, you're in the top 5% of people in the world if you just get out there and run, whether it's slow... ... or even slower!

Here's a 7-Week plan to get you started:
(See the full page at http://www.ordinaryrunner.com/.

Running should be fun!!
Before I show you the plan for getting you started (a very simple plan, by the way), I should say this again...
The important thing is that you GET started... And then...
Just KEEP MOVING!!
This plan is simple, and flexible. Follow it exactly or simply use it as a guideline, especially if you're already exercising a little bit.
Start where you are, and don't be embarrassed about it. Remember, with just a little time and consistency, you'll be getting in shape, losing weight, feeling and looking better... ... And you'll do it the healthy way, with your own work, not any cheap pills or diets! If you haven't run in years...
... don't go out and run 30 minutes the first day. This is a SURE WAY to hurt yourself and end your running career before it begins!

7-Week Getting Started Plan:
(See the full page at http://www.ordinaryrunner.com/)

Week 1:
Alternate 1 minute fast walk and 1 minute slow, for a total of 15 minutes. (5 days this week)
(If you want to, substitute a slow jog for the fast walk portion. Just be careful, and be realistic! Remember, patience and consistency are the keys!)

Once again... You're just getting started! Being an Ordinary Runner is a lifestyle, and WON'T happen overnight.

This is not a "Get Skinny Quick" lie, like you see on infomercials. This is the real thing! Just Keep Moving!!!
