What are the basics for a running lifestyle?

I’m fifteen and want to get into running. I need to know some of the basics, though I’m not going out for track or anything… :P

For example, what type of shoe should I get? From what I hear Puma is a very good brand of running shoe.

Also, how much time should I commit to training? And do you know what time of day it’s best to train?

I understand that electrolytes, water, and a healthy diet are a must…
And that’s about it. xD

I run in Nikes, but I think the brand of shoe you use depends on the person. I would stay with Nike, New Balance, Asics but that is just me. The best times to run are usually in the early morning or evening. You want to try and avoid the hottest part of the day. Water works fine as long as you drink enough. The body can only absorb one liter of water an hour. Electrolytes, such as Poweraid are good, but are high in sugar.
