Jogging – A beginners View
by Shad Moi
(Nairobi, Kenya)
I first heard about fitness and exercises when I was growing up as a young lad. It didn’t occur to me the importance of workouts and what it entailed.
But as I grew well into my 20s something prompted me to start exercising. It was four years after I completed my high school. I took part only in online games as I was too afraid of the "big" games my colleagues played.
But I began losing shape and I was eating gigantic portions of food. I was downing large amounts of alcohol during the weekends.
My main motivation came to me when one Saturday morning while perusing the local paper. I came across a featured story about Kenyans' lifestyles and the facts were astonishing. Diabetes and obesity were threatening the life expectancy of the nation, including me apparently.
I had to do something.
As the saying goes it has to start with you. So I gathered courage to speak to my friends about it. They were fit individuals as they took part in basketball and soccer.
We started a simple one mile run around our block every morning to get us started. I felt I couldn’t cope the first couple of days because of the soreness and aches but they kept me going.
I’ve grown strong now and I’m now able to combine a lot of workouts like pushups, sit ups and skipping rope.
Changing my lifestyle has changed my life forever.
