Running sucks. Sure it burns a lot of calories, but to be honest its not for everyone, its high-impact on your joints, and a very discouraging excersize if you don't like it. I bike personally. I do the stationary bike in the gym and mix it up with some HIIT. It allows me to get on, put on the music, close my eyes and zone out without having to worry about falling over or something. It helps, and its very effective. I've lost close to 40 pounds and I've never ran. The only time I step on a treadmill is if I'm doing a 15 minute cooldown walk. 178 lbs and counting! Used to be like 215.
