👏IT DOES NOT COST YOU ANYTHING!👏
Now that I grabbed your attention, you just need:
- Two legs,
- A sports-ware,
- Good running shoes. (This may cost you a little…but who does not want nice running shoes???)
Even time-wise, it does not cost you your precious time.
You can always run for 10 minutes before taking the shower you already have. Cut off 10 minutes from social media and put it into running. In a while, this 10-minute will turn into 30 minutes and even hours :) (trust me..)
So running will cost you neither money nor time.
Let me add to the equation. It can even benefit you!!!
CAN YOU IMAGINE?! 😮
These are the health benefits that you can gain from running: (1)
· Burn a lot of Calories (obviously..)
· Improve Cardiovascular Health
· Build Muscular strength
· Increase bone density
· Improve markers of Health
· Reduce stress
· Boost Confidence
Not to forget the positive effects of running on mental health: (2) (3)
· Improved working memory and focus
· Better task-switching ability
· Elevated mood
For amateur runners, you don’t even have to plan for anything or do any program. Just stretch a little, set the timer for 10 minutes, and go for a run. After a while, you’ll notice that a 10-minute run is too easy for you. Then, you will start increasing the run time.
Just for your information, as I am writing this article, I also started my running journey. I casually run in the gym or on weekends for fun, but I never took running seriously.
In November 2022, I decided to start a running journey and see how much I can push my limits and discover what I will be able to achieve (physically and mentally)
For that reason, I created a blog that will be dedicated to running to motivate those who want to run and know more about running and its benefits. I hope that you join me in this journey and share your experiences.
