What can I do if I want to start cross country or track, but don't have a large yard to practice running?

Answer 1

The world is your running trail, my friend! Go to the park, your local HS track...run through the neighborhoods or around industrial complexes or other large properties. I'd go for the parks if you have any around you. Have fun! Check out the tips below to start your running program. Good luck.

Answer 2

I have a large yard, but once I tried running laps in it and I wanted to kill myself it was so boring. Instead, I run all around my neighborhood, up and down my street, to stores with friends, to a park, or on all the tons of trails my town has. I also go to athletic clubs and run on a treadmill or run on my school's track.

try and run around your house or something, keep a good diet and always practice to run more distance than you will in the team. the key is not to go fast, but to go at a pace that you can endure in.
