Its important to know what pace suits you. If you are getting cramp you are pushing yourself too hard. You should pick a pace where you would be able to hold a conversation with someone beside you.
There could be a few reasons why you are getting cramp.
- are you stretching properly before starting
- have you eating within one or two hours of training?
- are you breathing properly - taking deeperer slower breathes?
- are you getting dehydrated running?
It could be any of those. Chat to someone who works in the gym and they can advise you.
my pace must be too fast. by the end my jog my throat is sore and i find it hard to swallow . i think it might be from breathing wrong. thanks for your help it ,ill take your advice
How can you keep your breathing regular if you are talking? I think this is a sure way to get out of breath.
