I'm now 75. I stated running in the 1970's . I did run distance races at about 7 mins/mile 50 years later, I don't race, still run but at a much slower pace. Funny thing is that I still feel that I am running fast even though my pace has dropped to around 12 mins/mile. Don't worry about it just get out and do it as long as you can. The health benefits are proven and obvious. Keep running/jogging whatever you call it.

@@mikevaldez7684 Hello Mike. Where to start? I am 75, but have been running for 50 years so my body is conditioned to it. If you are starting from scratch in your 60s you need to take it very gently or you will become injured. The most important thing is your shoes. Get some advice from a shoe shop. I prefer quite cushioned shoes as my old joints benefit. Ignore all the weird running methods recommended, just get out and run short distances very slowiy and gently. GIve your body time to recover, it is so easy to become too enthusiastic and get injured. At first, breathing is difficult, it will improve as the body adjusts. If you have a heart rate monitor, use it so that you can be aware of when you are pushing too hard. (220-age is a good general maximum) On my videos where I am wearing shorts, you will see that I wear knee straps. These do help me if my knees get sore, so I tend to wear them all the time. One of the best introductions to running I have seen on KZread is the one by Dev Runner: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k5eNqpmthMa6eaw.html I was so impressed that I subscribed to his channel. In the UK we have a couch to 5k training plan which seems to have worked for lots of people: www.nhs.uk/live-well/exercise/get-running-with-couch-to-5k/ I hope you find this of some use and I hope that your running progresses well.

Now I'm able to jog for 25 minutes straight. I'm going to slowly increase my jog time to 28 min, 30 min and so on.

Quizás has escuchado el término : trotar. Para mi correr es todo paso/ velocidad que supera caminar y mas especifico en el criterio para diferenciar el correr y caminata: cuando ambos pies están suspendidos, en el aire, ya no estas caminando, estas corriendo y eres descalificado de la competencia. Pero al fin, como le llamen no importa. Lo que importa es disfrutar la actividad.

Great video! The terminology in German is a lot different: "Joggen" (= jogging) can be used for any form of non-race running, "Rennen" (= running / racing) is usually used for any form of sprinting and "Laufen" (the original term for any movement on legs) is the fitting translation used for running by runners. However, when I tell non-runners that I was "Laufen", they sometimes don't know that I didn't mean "Gehen" (walking). So yes, we don't judge jogging, but our terminology isn't clear to everyone and we cannot really stress the hard effort with the word "Laufen" for running.

I started running first time this year.i worked as a construction laborer when I was young a change in direction of a straight concrete wall or footing to build strength is called a "jog".thanks for today's video.

I got the term confused too. I used to see some ppl at parks, going at a pace so slow u can literally brisk walk faster than them. So I had thought it was like this, a run is when ur doing what is biomechanically needed to go faster on foot than u can be walking, and jogging is when ur not at all going for speed but just adding a deliberate bounce or hop in order to get more cardio action than u would by walking.

I'm a novice runner at long distance; it's been about a year since I started. The question whether I'm running verse jogging has been in my mind since I started taking the sport seriously. I've concluded what was said near the end - I run/jog for health and for enjoyment. I'm not very good at endurance running - and that's okay - since I'm much better at it now when compared when I wasn't running/jogging at all. The criteria now is whether or not I'm "racing", which means I'm looking to complete a specific distance under a certain period of time. This has helped me greatly to keep my own ability in perspective and move at my own pace.

To me the two descriptions differentiate the intention behind the sport. I used to "jog" just for the sake of excercise and then started focusing on doing a marathon. From that point in I started calling myself a "runner". That is just a thing I made up for me personally but it really helps in trainig too because if I don't feel like my trainig is progressing or something I'll just tell myself I'm going out for a jog so my mind isn't on achieving a certain goal and I won't feel bad about not achieving said goal.

Hello, that's really great question. I've been calling myself a jogger. This now made me think twice. Thanks for creating this video.

400 meter I can sprint 1.5 km I can run 3 or more km I jogg. So now It's clear to every one. The pace at which your heart rate becomes stable is your jogging, if it's rising it is either a run or a sprint. Eluid Kipchoege can jogg at a pace many can not sprint😁😁 So that is jogging by his standards.He is a human horse😄😄 🐎

Just completed my hard run 🏃‍♂️ 💪..with 1km of jogging for relaxing my mind and to enjoy with the beautiful landscape we have here in Dales. Is it important to categorise jog or run?

I use a combination of the two. I jog as a way to lower my heart rate but keep it relatively elevated. My running is when I increase my pace and my stride is lengthened.

I'm 72 and been running and jogging since age 15. While I now consider much of what I do to be "steep hiking" and "flat jogging" I think it is important to throw in some short segments of "real running" and "moderately fast running...but not quite sprinting". Doing so such that you don't forget how to run fast. Uses quite different muscles. Without such short segments people above age 60 actually forget how to really run. I might also add that if possible do much of your hiking/jogging/running on surfaces that are not track perfect. Keeps your agility from becoming only suitable for "mall walking". Keep variability in your exercise and avoid the "elderly hesitancy" syndrome that makes seniors ever more susceptible to dangerous falls and stumbles from age 70 onward. Actually if you can find a lawn like surface it is not a bad idea to practice falling. Going with the stumble or fall is much safer than crashing like a tall tree. Look at how small kids do it. One last point. When jogging on uneven trails, you exercise more than your legs and heart. You actually train your brain for continuous brain versatility while looking for safe foot placement. Older brains need that variable workout for more than just cardio, blood flow, reasons. Keep a eye out for roots though. My last fall was due to a toe catching a root on the trail.

I’m pretty sure I’m just a really slow runner. I don’t mind if people call me a jogger. My 5k pace is about 10 min/ mile. 10k about 11 min/mile. 1/2 marathon about 12-13 min/mile. I’m so middle of the pack that ever race I’ve done, I’m smack dab in the middle. If there are 100 runners, I’m always 49th, 50th, or 51st. Any advice on how to scramble a little closer to the top 1/3? I’ve only been running constantly for about a year.

Fun video! I don't even think about the distinction when I'm running. I just focus on increasing my endurance. Now getting close to my first mile at a good pace and so far injury free. Hoping to do my first half-marathon this spring or summer.

Someone was offended on my behalf when I called myself a jogger. 😆

A rather funny characterization of the distinction I have heard is when you are out running or jogging, if you pass someone, they are jogging you are running. If someone passes you, they are running you are jogging

I went for an interval run this morning so that makes me a runner, no? Anyway I am feeling ready for the day.

It is running when for few mili seconds both your feet are airborne while you are propagating in forward movement.

I used to be able to do a 5K in about 21 minutes. During Covid I got out of shape pretty bad. I have been working to get back into shape and I must say, my times have dramatically gotten worse than precovid. I am now doing a 5K in like 27 minutes. Getting back to where I was seems almost impossible right now. I am thrilled to just be able to continue to run and complete my distance goals but is still kind of depressing to know how good of shape I was in and how hard it is to get back to it...but my short term goal is to get to a 24 minute 5K. Any tips? Right now I just try to increase my distances a little and make sure I push myself for periods of time during my run/jog where I am going at a 21 minute 5k pace for a quarter of mile or so and then jog to get my breath back.

@Lebowski53

Don't worry; you can easily get back to 5k at 21.00. And after that, get started on going sub-20. One of misconceptions with running 5ks is that you can just put more effort in, on race day, and you'll get your old time back. People tend to beat themselves up and think they're not trying hard enough, which is discouraging (and not true). Here's what you do. For the next 8 weeks, do the following three/four runs a week. On a Sunday, jog 10-12k. Nice and easy, don't get out of breath. This will build your aerobic fitness. On a Tuesday, run 800/1k intervals, five times over. Have a nice rest inbetween. You want to run those hard, and be out of breath. For your third run, which is called 'tempo', run 5k slightly slower than the pace you're aiming for. Your first target will be 25 minutes, which is obviously 5 minute ks. So, if you have a running watch, aim for around 5.1 or 5.2 minute kilometres. I guarantee you if you follow this and throw in more runs here and there that firstly, you will love running again and, secondly, you'll be back to your old time very, very quickly. Running is a grind. Just stick to the process.

I suck at jogging. Always start going "too fast" after a few kilometers. My jog pace is between 5:50-6:20/km, depending on the route (I'm 100kg, so lots of hills will slow me down a lot), but I often find myself running at around 5:30 pace and I have to really work at slowing myself down. Sometimes I can keep that pace on the flat when I find my rhythm and still be zone 2, but my HR will be so close to the zone 3 limit, that any little extra effort or just a slight uphill will push me to zone 3, and I really try to avoid that on my easy run days.

I'm 25 ( hit back in October 23rd of this year) @ now 96kg of weight @ height of 5.7 / 5.8 ft... So my question is- the gym where I'm working out for is at around 4km from my home... Is it ok to jogg to that distance? Will I be able to burn more fat in faster rate?? What are the actual benifits of Pre - workout jog ?

It's all relative. When you leave your home, to go out for your run/jog/walk, leave your ego at the door.

My definition centered on the speed. When I got to an 8 minute mile I considered I was running. That definition slipped a bit when I was training for a marathon. My body traded a bit of speed for the needed endurance. On the great day I did the first 22 miles in 3 hr 15min. That is a bit slower than 9 min/mile. Some of the rest of the distance I was down to a walk. (A walk is easy to defines ,it is when there is at any instant, there is always one foot one foot on the ground the at all times. In running both feet are airborne during every step)

Sounds like jogging is just a zone 1 or 2 effort. Simply a variation of easy run. Another workout type to go along side other types such as tempo, threshold or interval. Today is my easy run day where I go for a jog for example.

In Germany we also have a confusing word: "laufen". In the southern dialects, "laufen" means to walk whereas in high German "laufen" means to run.

When younger I have to admit I was offended.... But now at 38 I just am glad to be moving and playing soccer once a week.

Walking is when at least 1 foot has contact with the ground at all times. Running is when at times there is no contact with the ground.

Given that it varies person to person where someone would consider their jogging pace I wonder if you could make an argument for it being heart rate related. Obviously doesn't really matter in the end but as a teacher I sometimes want to be able to explain to a student what the difference is and why English has these different words.

This dude at work mentioned that I was interested in jogging rather than running. I wanted to say “I beg your pardon you grown up kid”,and not sure how he would have taken it.. i wasn’t happy, certainly wanted to give him a comeback that gave him a knock on his chin. Hate that word.

Been jogging for a month and lost 14 pounds ❤

Running at age 60 is a lot slower than I used to run. But the effort is the same. 6:40 pace in my 40’s or 8:40 pace now.

many in their 20 or 30 look at you with envy

I just finished a 5 mile walk in 44 minutes (yes, verified distance and time). That puts me at 6.8787... etc. per mile, which is supposed to the speed of a "run". Of course, I'm not doing race-walking form, but what is called a Rolf-step in Germany where troops there are taught to walk this way to cover lots of ground quickly while walking. I was doing this naturally since my teens and only found out that the style of walk I was doing was the Rolf-step when I was 35. I'm 58, btw, and I'm one month out from having abdominal surgery. Don't let age keep you from being physically fit.

l could do 10km in 55 minutes. l ran everyday for months. but it got so boring, l listened to all music out there, ran on every route 100x, at the point where you need to grab your car to drive somewhere first to discover new tracks… l still run but not that often, moving to a different city is the only option i guess, how do i get the motivation back?

I am a runner turned jogger if a difference must be made. For me as a 36 years old ex athlete, that's the difference between a pleasurable meditative ride and a punishing hellish scamper. Glad I don't have to time my laps no more, just a grand long route along the river or a loop in the woods, keep relaxed and carry on till that high.

I would say it's relative. To some people a 7:30 mile is running, to others it's jogging. My rule is, if you can't cover a given distance faster than I can, you have no place referring to me as a "jogger".

I play Frisbee golf, which is now popularized as Disc Golf. All major organizations now call it Disc Golf. Yet, only a decade ago, almost everyone called it Frolfing (Frisbee + golf). Nowadays, like jogging, Frolfing has an almost negative connotation. But, any way you slice it, Frolfing is Disc Golfing, and Jogging is Running. 🏃‍♀

Those who dwells too long on definition tends to miss the point, those who cares more about the action tends to hit the miles. So act now, define later. Stay healthy everyone.

I don’t like being called a runner for two reasons.. 1) I only run to stay in shape 2) I hate running 🙃. I’m okay with a jogger since I also don’t have the shape and weight of a runner 🤣.

It's not called park jog

I live in a non-running community. So whenever someone asks me how many kilometers do I walk (I actually run them but these guys always call it walking cuz its the only thing they understand) its ultra offensive.

Even if someone asks me the number of kilometers I "jog", it would still be way better than 'walking' imo.

I sended this to my classmates because when we did P.E. the teacher said to jog around the court 5 times and what did they do? Jog? NO, RUNNING LIKE THEY ARE SPRINTING AWAY FROM THE FREAKING POLICE I was so ANGRY They were running instead of Jogging! I WAS THE ONLY FREAKING ONE WHO WAS FREAKING JOGGING my classmates even PUSHED me to go "Faster" so I was left behind and ofc I did nothing because Im the "shy one" in class and after that I just gave up and walked because of the RAGE I have, luckily Im good at hiding my emotions so thats why I sended this to my classmates. Thank you for reading my essay, and thank you for wasting your time to read my non-sense. You can have a cookie 🍪

I went to my local jogging shop the other day to get myself a pair of jogging shoes. The only thing I managed to buy was a pair of jogging bottoms.
