How to start running | shoes, diet, training plan and everything I wish I knew 

I'm running to improve my fitness, but also because just spending time running outside several times a week has such a positive impact on my mental health!

I've start running and I feel so good. Of course, is a journey with small steps until get better. I love it your tips and someday I want to run a marathon. Hello from Brazil.

Another video which turned out to be way longer than I first intended to buut I didn’t feel like splitting it up or cutting out any parts. If you ask me, I could make tons more of these videos, diving into each topic/talking point because there is so much more to running than what I’ve shared in this video. Nonetheless, I do hope you got inspired to start running yourself, found my tips helpful and simply just enjoyed another couple of messy days during marathon training :) As mentioned throughout the video, I am not a professional or educated on these topics. It’s just my own experiences :)

you're such an inspiration, I climb and I I often go mountaineering, sooo two hard activity, but with your videos I'm getting into running and I'm loving it, thank you!

Dear Katharina. I have been watching your videos now for quite a while, and I have enjoyed them because you show a nice balance in life and commitment to eating disorder recovery. However I just have a little comment to make about this specific video. While I think, that your running journey is absolutely amazing and very inspiring for many, I think you should have made a disclaimer in the beginning of your video. I think it is safe to say, that many of your subscribers and the people who are watching your videos found you because of your content regarding you recovery from an eating disorder. I do want to mention, that I absolutely understand if you want to 'break out' of that 'role' and express other sides of yourself. But I worry that many of the people who watch your videos will take this video in the wrong way. A short little disclaimer in the beginning of the video, where you could just say that running is not for everyone, and that it may not be the right thing for everyone, would probably help so many of your viewers and reassure them, that maybe running isn't for them yet. This comment is not meant as rude or anything like that! I still really admire you and your content, but I just think it is important to keep in mind who tends to watch your videos, and know that those people often are a bit fragile when it comes to working out. I hope you understand what I mean.

I've been eagerly waiting for this episode, and it did not disappoint! 🏃‍♂ Your tips on getting started with running are incredibly helpful. Wishing you all the best! 🥰

Ive been waiting for this ☺️❤️

Nice to see you again Katharina also I hope your weekend went well and I hope you have a great week ahead of you too.

12:30, THIS! Same goes with hittign the gym! Muscles are torn in the gym, grown at home with proper rest and a great amount of food! 👍

Really loved your video Katharina! Watched you run the marathon last weekend and super super impressed and inspired!!! Fellow cph girlie, will hopefully run my first marathon soon… ish. Lots of love 🫶🫶

love how you sharing your diet plan 😊

I am not a runner but your videos are still very interesting. Love the food and your part of the world (I'm stuck in San Diego). Another thumbs up.

I just found your channel. Youre hella awesome! keep up the grind! love your videos! Lets goo, Much love !

Excellent tips and well done on starting the taper, most of the hard work is done. If you do get a running watch something like a Garmin or a Coros will do the job. I love my Garmin epix gen 2 but it’s probably overkill for most people. The coros pace 2 is an excellent introductory running watch, jam packed with features, that is under 200 euros. I believe that both Garmin and Coros will sync will Nike Run Club.

Why do you want? Or why do you want to start running?

Really good video! Thanks a lot!!

Such an entertaining yet informative video!! Just wondering what you do for a living since you’re able to travel so much? Thank you and I hope that’s not too personal! Good luck on your race

Go girl, you are doing amazing!

Hi I love your video! Is there a matcha brand that you can recommend? 💚

Garmin Forerunner 945 is the best running watch for what you need

I ran my first full marathon in 2020 and after that I didn't run long distances. But I started running again! I am motivated by you, thanks Katharina:) Do you do post-run stretches or any routine for tight hamstring or calves? I have sore legs and there are only a few post-run stretch videos to follow... (BTW, I am Korean, living in Germany, do you have any plans to travel to Korea whilst you are traveling to Japan?)

I’ve been running off an on for almost 9 years now and I’ve always used a watch. I’m getting more serious with running and I don’t even grab my watch anymore. I just use my phone to track my distance and pace

Lately I have been feeling bored on my runs. Could you recommend a podcast or music playlist for me? I really want to have the motivation to run longer distances.💜 p.s. you are making great progress with your health and running journey!

Hi! Thank you for this video, it’s very inspiring! Could you (or someone) link the running app? Thank you!

Ive stared to taper my training due to injury. I've ran once last week T__T I miss it so much. Im focusing on cross training this week.

Hello, am i right? Is it night run club app? Can’t find it on app store ☹️

How often do you have to change your running shoes?

I am into running lataly but for the moment I struggle with an injury. Have you ever had one? Ps the vest is very beautifull!.

I miss Copenhagen so much

love ur vids🤍

What about my shin splints i want to run but cant ...my last run was terrible i thought my shin is healed from rest then runned 10 min boom 2days was terrible pain cant sleep legs were just feeling like on electric shock machine 😢😢😢

Heyyy, I was wondering which (if any) marathon training plan are you following?

I want to start running but it is so hard to start 😩😩 anyone else??

Ιf I had you as a trainer, I promise I would run everyday and I would eat healthy ;)

Ha, ha, getting rid of the Bostons after half a year? My actual Bostons have 2300 km done already, still working ... Well, women and shoes ... 🙂 To complement that: No man would run without a watch. We are number fetishists. 😊 For you it's probably a good thing to not use a watch. It can create pressure. My running advice: Consistency is key.
