Why run?
Running, especially a running routine improves your cardiovascular health, helps you lose weight & improves your overall mood.
- Cardiovascular improvement
Running regularly strengthens your heart, improving your lung capacity, in turn enhancing your body's ability to take in and utilise oxygen efficiently. It also lowers your resting heart rate suggesting the heart is much more efficient at pumping blood, requiring fewer beats to maintain your body's needs.
- Weight loss
Running regularly is an effective way to lose weight as it burns a high amount if calories in a short space of time. this creates a calorie deficit which contributes to weight loss. However, this will be more effective if you also maintain a healthy balances diet whilst also eating in a caloric deficit.
- Improvement in your mood
When running your body releases endorphins, dopamine and serotonin which hormones act as natural mood booster. Running also helps balance stress hormones like cortisol whilst also giving your self a break from the stresses of life.
Different types of runs
- Short runs - Typically anything below 3km
- Standard Runs - Typically between 5km & 10kms
