5 Reasons Why Everyone Should Run

ByM A Rawson

Providing you are free from an injury or medical condition that would prevent you from running, then running is probably one of the best exercise disciplines. After all, most sports professionals advocate running as a primary cardiovascular part of their fitness routine.

The cost of exercising is also very minimal. In fact the only advisable expenditure necessary are a decent pair of running shoes.

For most people and their hectic lifestyles, brings with it a need to seek healthy ways to eat correctly and exercise sufficiently. People are allowing themselves less time to look after themselves as they indulge in working too hard and long without sufficient sleep, or in fact, time to do much else. This generally means that proper meals are neglected for fast foods, and with little recreational time, a good exercise routine is neglected.

Running is not 'the be all and end all exercise', however combined with say weight training, it can provide a great component for an excellent training program.

From a fitness point of view:

Your body will benefit greatly from regular cardiovascular exercise. In order to strengthen the functioning of your heart and lungs, you need to exercise to an extent whereby the heart and lungs are working faster than the normal rest state. Obviously you should never throw yourself into an exercise routine without first consulting your doctor who will advise you on your suitability for such exercise. However once you have established suitability, then it is simply a question of making a start and building yourself up with a suitable realistic routine.

Losing weight:

With a regular exercise routine and the combination of a balanced diet, it is inevitable that you will lose weight. The simple rules are, if the food/calorie intake is less than the energy/calories burned, you will lose weight. Any form of exercise, even walking to work etc is better than no exercise, however, the discipline of running means that more calories will be burned as a result.

Running as a hobby:

Probably one of the greatest problems faced with any kind of exercise is commitment and motivation. Joining a club, or running for a charity can provide an excellent focus and reason to get up and go jogging. As an additional benefit there comes a camaraderie that can be a great help when you simply don't feel like it. Not to mention the social outlet afforded, and perhaps a well earned trip to the pub afterwards.

De-stressing:

The unfortunate modern stresses that face most people seem to be an inevitable part of our day to day lives. Running offers an excellent antidote to the problem. When faced with problems in our lives, running also allows us an excellent opportunity to take time out and think problems through.

Running is fun:

As previously mentioned, joining a group of like minded people, or even work colleagues, can offer a chance to catch up and perhaps share a laugh and a joke. However, if you find yourself alone whilst exercising, you don't have to pick the same boring route every time. If you run in the city during your lunch hour, a different route can provide the opportunity to discover new sites. Maybe there are places you could drive to, perhaps country locations, and take in picturesque surroundings as you run.

Hopefully the preceding has given you a few ideas to get started. Do some further research and pick a routine, simply starting at a level that you feel comfortable with. Certainly don't try to overdo to start with otherwise you will give up. Unfortunately this short guide cannot provide everything you need to start a routine. You have to follow a plan that involves warming up and down as well as correct stretching. Finally, make sure you take it easy at first and remember, you are doing the best that you can do right now and then work up, as your fitness levels increase. Many people start off walking for a few weeks only, then gradually incorporate walking and running, until you can run comfortably without having to stop and walk.
