What running teaches us in real life

Running teaches us some of the most important lessons in life.It is undoubtedly the best form of exercise and also the best form of utilizing your free time.It is said that the person who can run well can do anything in life as he will have a strong will power.

On a personal note,I have improved my running quite a bit and I can now run about 6km without stopping in between.My aim is to run the Goa Half Marathon next year and I will be training by keeping that in mind.Running is my happy hour and I enjoy the feel one gets after running few laps of our campus.

So what makes running so enjoyable ?

Running is very economical as it requires only a pair of shoes,shirt and shorts.It can be done anywhere and at any time.Running is also said to be the sport that requires very high level of endurance and will power.Marathon runners are the fittest persons one can find on our planet.They would have fought through several blisters and pain to complete the 26.2 mile run.

But what does running teaches us in life?

Running teaches us never to give up and also to keep on trying to improve yourself.It also teaches us to have some spare time for ourselves too.A runner will never be lazy and will always be full of energy.It is rightly said ,"The greatest distance a runner has ever run is from the bed to the road".This quote defines what running is.When you start running,it feels as if you can go on forever.Running also freshens up the mind which is helpful in doing other things.Running also increases your social circle as runners mix very well with other runners.

So what are you waiting for,put on your running shoes and get ready to conquer the miles.

Happy running !
