Why People Think They Hate Running
- Many people quit because they try running with no structure and expect instant comfort.
- Overdoing intensity or skipping recovery turns running into a constant struggle and raises injury risk.
Started As A Running Hater
- Jason Fitzgerald hated running in middle school and avoided the mile during track week.
- He gradually learned to enjoy running by practicing consistently and building the habit over months.
Build Habit Before Speed
- Start with three runs per week of 20–30 minutes to build consistency before adding volume.
- Increase mileage gradually (about 5–10% every 2–3 weeks) and add intensity slowly.
