Unfortunately, a lot people don't
like to run. it's a shame too, because running does a body a whole world of
good. Not only will it improve your cardiovascular health, but you burn a crap
ton of calories. I don't know exactly why some see running as a nightmare, but
I think that if it's approached the right way, running can be super enjoyable.
If you're new to the whole running thing, I recommend starting off slow. Some
people try to start out like they're Usain Bolt or something, and they kill
themselves, and then end up half dead, wheezing for dear life, and sprawled out
on the ground in a dark alley somewhere because of all the cramps they’re
feeling. What I recommend doing instead is starting out at a pace and distance
that’s reasonable to your fitness level. Then gradually increase your speed and
distance over time, thus building upon your prowess.
If you’re like me and you love music,
carry a music player with you as you run or jog. You’d be surprised at how much
music seems to send extra adrenaline through you. You could also try running
with friends so that way, you all can encourage one another. Whatever you do,
try to find a way to make the running fun. Before you know it, you’ll be
running like a champ, and looking like one too.
