any joggers out there ?
how long do you jog ?
I do maybe 15 km / week.
great in the icelandic cold, now minus 10 degrees...

Are you out of your mind? Stonesfans are not joggers, we´re drinkers and lovers.

Nordic Stones Vikings

if you jog a lil bit you can drink more and love more !

I've ran 32 full marathons (26.2 miles) and have a best time of 2 hrs 59 mins 48 secs.

My New Year's resolution is to get fit again and beat my PB by one minute (or one second). Whichever.

great great great logie !
am in a joggers club, some of us are in the same category as u,
i definitely am not , to old probably, born 1951 !
go out twice a week..

I jog every day, but only two miles... Not a drinker. The rest? Guilty!

"joggers high" every day! love that.

I run at least three times a week, maybe cover 15-20 miles weekly. Sometimes I ride my bike to work 32 miles round-trip.
Mick is a runner and I'd like to find out what his routine is like. I bet he uses a treadmill mostly to avoid the public and paparazzi.
I have to wonder if we would even have the Stones today if it were not for Mick's diligence for staying in shape and setting an example.

It's pronounced "Jagger"

Its funny that theres a thread about this because I just started getting into jogging. The distance I go is probably about 2 miles. I go every other day or every couple of days. It does make you feel good the rest of the day after you do it. Thats what I like about it, not the actual jogging itself.

Still no joggin (might begin
but then we have the snow here
& the gear costs a fortune )...
But I toss weights four times a week...

live in scandinavia bro ? lot of snow at your place ?
some jogers in my club use small metal chains under the running shoes when there i snow,
i dont, wound not like it..

Cross-country skiing is a good substitute for jogging!

absolutely EG
no q about that, probably healthier,
less pressure on knees and ankles joints i guess

I don't jog , bad for the knees . However I do walk between 7 1/2 - 10 miles per day

that IS good, B2006 !
you have got a lot of spare time...

I jog to the fridge occasionally to grab another beer...

the reason i do jogging is ;

to to get mentally away from my day job,
and to stay reasonably fit.

"Mentally away from the job...mmm"

Mid-Sweden, Bothnic Gulf Coast.
All of a sudden we have a good half meter o' snow from today...

Been jogging for 24 years (since quit smoking). Most of the music I'm listening to is from the mp3-player when jogging.

I quit smoking this past March and started jogging the next day. Slow going at first (wrong kind of shoes for my overpronating ankles, which KILLED my knees) and lots of fun stuff came out of my lungs, but once I got all of that sorted out, I've been running pretty consistently ever since (4 to 6 days a week) but have been topping out at about 2 miles (18-19 minutes - I'm pretty slow). I need to step it up a bit, distance-wise, as I want to start running 5Ks this spring and 10Ks by the end of the summer. And, eventually, marathons.

I went for my first international run a couple of weeks ago in Toronto - was cruising along one morning, turned a corner, and saw the old El Mocambo neon sign! Very cool.

great to read your stories, from all around the world!

(6853 the topic starter)


"stones & stamina"
"jagger & jogging"

this goes along fine....!

Great to hear there are fit people on the board! I just saw "Supersize Me", and I kind of imagined that people who spend a lot of time on their PCs, waiting for the next Stones concert, might be big as cars... But obviously - thank God! we're not. '
And yes, if it wasn't for Mick's jogging, there would not have been any tour action after 1990. He's got a personal trainer, who's also a physiotherapist for the entire band, (Torje Eike) with whom he goes jogging every day when on tour. (in the streets, in parks, around little lakes etc) But of course, he should be cross country skiing in stead - to protect ankles and knees.

as a matter of interest, not many people in the US call it "jogging" - that was a term from the 70s when it became trendy here - it's "running" - and it doesn't matter how fast you go (technically, i think jog is usually a slow run)
