Source: FlickrRunning is one of the most effective ways to get fit and it doesn’t cost you anything providing you have the right gear, like shoes, but many people don’t know where to start.

All you need to do is get up a little earlier before work or put aside some time after dinner to go out in your neighborhood and just run around. You are almost guaranteed to get fit and lose weight from doing this a few times a week for a number of weeks.

Health and Fitness have posted some great tables, perfect to use them as a simple guide, so that you can start running in no time. According the author “this will only take you one hour a day for three days a week for 3 months.“.
