| [slm] From a non-expert: I had to run the mile every other day in gym class in middle school and my first two years of high school. (I did 9th grade in Saudi Arabia....imagine running in 40 degrees C weather)... Now, have you EVER had a go at running the mile? My quickest time (this is embarrassing, but oh well) was 10 minutes and something. All I remember is that I didn't stop running. I mean, I didn't walk in between, I didn't fall onto the grass dying from lack breath, and interestingly enough, I didn't faint. :-/ (Someday, I have to tell you all about my fainting spells...they make an amusing set of stories). Secondly, I remember making a pained effort to inhale thru my nose, as opposed to my mouth. Supposedly that's helpful. Now 2 weeks? Man...you need to get out there and practice. 15 minutes is really a pretty reasonable time. Wish you the best of luck. SF. (Once fainted during the Canadian National Anthem at school.) |

| [slm] Whoa...two weeks isn't much time at all. But if you make dua, anything is possible. The single best way to improve your running time is to train with intervals. Basically, you sprint for thirty seconds, then slowly jog for sixty seconds, sprint thirty, jog sixty....and on and on. You can vary the time too. For instance, if you are not in great shape, sprint for only 15 seconds and slowly jog for sixty. You get the picture, no? And remember to warm up very well before you start any strenuous exercise and stretch afterward. Do this three to five times a week and make sure to give yourself a few days to relax your body before the day of the exam. Two weeks really isn't enough time but insha'Allah, you can do it. [wlm] |

| [slm] LOL. :-/ :-/ :-/ Okay inshaAllah, I will make a special du'aa to Allah for it to rain in two weeks. Just as long as it doesn't get too cold on my end of the world, I don't mind. I remember in high school...I prayed that I wouldn't have to juggle in my anatomy class, since it was a requirement to pass, but my hand-eye coordination is just about nill. High school teachers in Ontario went on strike for two weeks :) Yayy! Just out of curiosity, why don't you get out of it? Since you brought up the whole "gunnah" thing.....you could try talking to your principal about it. They can't force you to run it if you give them a good reason. Tell your instructor that you'll write a report on basketball instead. (I'm not kidding. It will work, insha Allah) Just a note: two and half years to the day I graduated from high school -- and I wish I had learnt how to juggle. You might actually enjoy it (that is to say...WHY exactly is your GYM class co-ed??!!) Wasalaam, and good luck. SF. (Oh and! I'm not a "dude"...) |

(sorry for stealing your thread sis HiJaBeeThug) ;D[/quote] High impact is exactly that -- you create a lot of impact on your joints from movements such as jumping, hopping, etc. Step aerobics is normally not high impact, but depending on which videos (and instructors) you are using, it can be -- though you will never jump down from the step, just up on to it. Low impact aerobics means that there is little impact from the movements -- no jumping, etc. It tends not to get your heartrate up as much as high impact, but then again, it doesn't jar your joints either. Step was originally used as a way to get a more elevated heart rate without the added impact of jumping. (Of course, before that, it was a knee rehab tool -- then the exercise people picked up on it.) But today you can do step either low impact or high impact. |

| i don't know about anyone else, but i lived for PE. i loved running the "suicide runs" for basketball. I thought the better shape i was in the more i could wear down the other team. was able to do the mile in under 6 min. but that was too many years ago and too many knee operations ago. |

| Guys are more experts in running huh? I was the second fasted running female in school back in the day... I used to jog for 4-5 miles everyday... although I can only run a few days a week now because my work schedule is hectic.... don't assume us muslimahs cannot represent!! So, two weeks, heh? Well, you will just have to take the first week by running more than 1 mile every other day.... try finding a running/race track that is 4 laps for 1 mile. The first two times you run, run 1 lap, speed walk 1 lap, run 1 lap, speed walk two laps. Then again run 1 lap, speed walk 1 lap, run 1 lap, speed walk two laps. Even if your legs kill, push yourself. Now, the 3rd time, run 1 lap, speed walk 1 lap, run 1 lap, speed walk 1 lap. Then, run 1 & 1/2 laps, speed walk 1/2 lap, run 1 & 1/2 laps, speed walk 1/2 lap. 4th time do the same again as the 3rd. then try to run 2 laps, walk 1/2 lap, run 2 laps, run 1/2 lap. I trained by mixing running and walking and by the end of the second week I was able to push myself and run far... but you have to push... YES!! my legs burned like crazy at the start of the run but during the run it went away...if I walked and then started again the burning would return but it would go away again... The first 10 minutes of running are the hardest. After that, your chest opens up a little more and you can catch your breath. hey, after about 3 weeks I was running without any walking for 45minutes and then about a month after that I started jogging for about an hour everyday. I love that feeling when I finish my jogging and I get this wonderful feeling in my legs --so energized!! :) Ameera |
