I have been through various fitness regimes. I used to run about five miles a day and I did aerobics for a while.

I still run every other day. Longer at weekends. I probably do 35 miles a week.

You imagine running 120 miles a week, week in, week out, for the past four or five years. It takes a little bit out of you.

I think there are so many extra benefits to running besides the health ones that come from getting your heart rate up, sweating, and all that other good stuff.

I have been doing 120 miles a week, when normally I would do about 140.

I run in a local park two or three times a week. I probably should do more than I do, but I also do weight-lifting along with that cardio.

Once you learn the basic rules of good nutrition, you'll realize it's not so complicated. It doesn't matter if you're running errands or 13 miles, you need enough fuel to last all day. Proper nutrition is the difference between feeling exhausted and getting the most out of a workout.

For 6 days a week I aim to get in between 18-23 miles.

If you want to run, run a mile. If you want to experience a different life, run a marathon.

I used to think that it didn't make any difference how far you ran if you had a good, strong musculoskeletal system and no underlying cardiovascular problems.
