[edit] Incomplete Introduction
The second sentence is kind of cut off. I have no clue how it is supposed to continue, however. MondSemmel 20:34, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NPOV
Horribly non-NPOV. Obviously written by a runner with an axe to grind. :-) --Silvestre Zabala 16:32, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
Well, Silvestre, the tools are here for you to rewrite it then. If you know best, don't criticise; edit! Over to you. The Advocate 09:47, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not a jogger and don't feel comfortable editing articles about topics where I don't have expertise. Your changes have elided most of the sentences which I found too strongly worded. Thank you. --Silvestre Zabala 14:42, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

- Yes, much better. Thanks for your work, guys! --Lantoka 10:03, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

- I still think the articles kinda makes it seem like Joggers are a class of people who just aren't as good as runners. It seems kinda silly actually.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 20:54, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

I guess you jog if you attain between 40 and 80 percent of your maximum heart rate. Anything lower is "a brisk walk or less", anything higher is "running". MHR = 220bpm - your age. In order to calculate your exact MHR you need to factor-in to that formula your resting heart rate, but I have no clue about that formula's equation.
[edit] Image
Shouldn't the image be removed? It is of a Marine Running, after all. Jonathan235 21:56, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Frozen Babies
The snippets about babies-cum-icicles as their parents try to get some exercise are quite sensational. Shouldn't someone cite some actual news stories about this? I don't think ( Major City / Year ) is accepted form........ Ztrawhcs 21:15, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] What a craked-out ariticle
So...I'm I getting this right? To me, it seems like the point of this article is to say "joggers are inferior to runners, and they also kill children." It's kind of funny actually.--68.149.181.145 01:10, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- Well, as a beginning jogger, it's kind of true. We aren't as fast or have as good form as runners, but while jogging is a similar activity, it is done for a different reason. - 219.194.176.15 13:09, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. This article is crappy. The Dutch version at least has some helpful information on tracks, gear aso. SA mtm 17:15, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Links
The link "IQ Health" doesn't work.
What is that link (JoggingStroller.com - Reviews and How to Guides)? It seems much more commercial that howtos.
