JOGGING

Most people like sport. Sport is not only fun to do but it is also good for us too. Playing sport keeps us healthy and let us exercise our body.

There are many kinds of sports. One of them is jogging. Many people in Indonesia

like jogging. It is very important to our body because it keeps our heart healthy. It also keeps us fit.

If we get up early in the morning in most Indonesian cities we will see an unusual sight. Lots of boy, girls, men and women are ready up and busy. What are they doing? They are exercising. Many will do jogging. Jogging is a gentle running. People jog to relax themselves, to keep themselves fit, or simply to enjoy themselves. Our world today is a world where life is comfortable and easy for many city people.

To do jogging does not need a lot of money. It is a cheap sport. We only need a pair of running shoes, a sports shirt, shorts, and socks.

We can jog on the streets, in the big square, in the park, in the stadium, etc. If we want to make our body fit, we have to jog at least three times a week or every other day. So don’t jog only on Sundays.

What should and shouldn’t we do before and after jogging?

1. Before we start jogging, do some exercise. It is called warming-up. By doing this, our body and muscle will be able to adapt easily.
2. Before we start jogging, we should not eat or drink anything. If we eat or drink something, moreover, especially if we consume a large portion, our stomach will ache while we are jogging.
3. After jogging, don’t take a bath directly. We should wait for about fifteen minutes, or until our body gets dry. If we are still in a sweat and take a bath, we will be sick.

 

 

As we know, nowadays our government is very enthusiastic to support the sports programme. And our government also provides many facilities. But whether there is a government’s facility or not, let’s do sport if we want to keep our body fit and healthy. If we are healthy, we can study and work very well.
