5.0 out of 5 stars Run, don't walk .. and buy this DVD!, February 6, 2006

This review is from: Run for Fun (DVD)

John and Coach Jenny's approach has really changed my life! I have wanted to run for many years - only to keep thinking about how I wanted to do so, but never with the nerve to tackle this "dream". Between John and Coach Jenny, this "dream" of mine is becoming a reality. John's humor and humble approach convinced me that if he could do it, I could, too! Coach Jenny's wealth of knowledge and comfortable approach gave me the right tools to not be afraid and tackle my dream one step at a time. I never would have thought about a run / walk approach. Then again, I never would have thought about running a half marathon ... or maybe even more! Who knew? This DVD is both entertaining and very informative. I have watched it numerous times already ... and each time I pick up just a little bit more!

This review is from: Run for Fun (DVD)

John and Coach Jenny's methods have really opened up a whole new world to me. I never, ever thought I would be a runner...let alone enjoy the process! They really do emphasize the "fun" of it all. I now look forward to my run/walks and have even signed up for my first marathon this coming June! Yikes!

John's story is so inspirational and well told that I figure "if he can do it....I can do it!"

Get this DVD. John clearly explains the jargon and lingo that can sometimes be intimidating for the newbie. Worth every penny. Life changing!!!

This review is from: Run for Fun (DVD)

Run For Fun is both informational and entertaining. Great tips on all the basics, from running form, run/walking, work out schedules, to what shoes and clothes to buy. But I really loved that it teaches running is not intimidating, anyone can do it, no matter how fast or far you run. I have never seen a DVD that captures the spirit of running like this DVD does. Very inspirational and funny too.
