I am 25M a bit overweight. I have DSP Physical in about 3 months. It includes :-

- 1600m in 7.5 min

- 1.10 m high jump

- 3.60 m long jump

- 2.0 m vertical rope

Last year they told people to run 1600m on road in patiala. So preparing for the worst, I want to run on road. Please suggest me

-some shoes specifically for indian roads

-people say I’ll get bad knees by running on road what’s the truth in that and any precaution.

-Also should I be wearing langot while running for testi. protection.

Now, for strategy I was thinking

- 1st month endurance building by running 2,2.5 km

- running 2,3 times a week. Rest, stretching and light weight training on non running days.

- Then 2nd,3rd month focus on timing 1600m

Thanking you in advance :)
