Let´s run with life

Today will be my first official running time in Oslo and I am a lit bit nervous about it but I feel ready for this.  I have been running for the last months not just for this challenge but also for feel inside the powerful benefits that you can get every time you run.

The fact is, running has a lot of benefits. And here’s a list of some of the best. Hope you can get motivated and ready to star to run.

*Healthy heart Running is one of the best ways to give your heart muscle an effective workout. By running regularly you can improve circulation, and reduce the risk of a heart attack, high blood pressure and stroke.

* Weight loss The average runner burns almost 1000 calories after one hour a training session. So expect to lost some kilos which will in turn help you run faster.

* Mental health A regular running habit will you lift your mood and build self-esteem. It also increases your self-confidence as you reach fitness and/or weight loss goals. Running can help relieve mild depression.

*Sleep Studies show that runners find it easier to get to sleep at night and sleep longer. Insomniacs take note.

*Stress Running increases your ability to cope with everyday minor irritations and stresses.

*Happiness Endorphins engendered by exercise mean that people who run are often happier than those who don't: ever felt that sense of elation during or after a run (known as the runner's high)? Running regularly can also improve patience and make you more good-tempered and easy-going.

*Brain power You can increase your mental functions by going running as it boosts blood flow to the brain and helps it receive oxygen and nutrients, making you more productive at work.

* Complexion Running stimulates your circulation, improving the transportation of nutrients around your system and flushing out waste products. This will help make your skin clearer and give you that distinctive runner's glow.

* Fat burn By running you are building lean muscle, changing your body composition and your metabolism, so cultivate a regular running habit and you should see a gradual, healthy inch loss.

So let´s run people…let´s run J
