Ran for your life

Ran for your life. If it is the last thing that you do, ran for your life!!!

 With every step that you pound on the road, your life will smile with you and your heart will not only be healthier, it will work with you to make you stronger, fitter and younger.

 Your legs will ache initially, but eventually, they will form a firm support for your body. You will walk with the assured stance of those whose back is straight. Your shoulders will announce to the world that you are here to stay.

 Your lungs will grow in capacity. Every breath that you take will infuse your system with adequate oxygen. You will learn how to take deep and long breaths that will envelope your being with life.

 As your heart pulsates with life giving blood, she will dance with health. Her happiness will cause all your veins to spring into life. That rush of blood will clear your whole body. Your system will form an interrupted network of a life giving force.

 If for some reason, your indiscipline in life led you to acquire a stomach extension that is wrongly associated with wealth, running will gently nudge that outgrowth back into shape. The fat will not stand a chance against the overwhelming heat that is as a result a heated body.

 Every time you complete a running session, you will have overcome a mental roadblock. You can carry that lesson to your day to day life and before you know it, you will be conquering every obstacle on your path.

 The discipline of running consistently and aiming for a particular goal is one that you can use in every part of your life. You can be a better husband, wife, lover, father, mother, worker et al. Exercise in general and running in particular is rumoured to be the most effective aphrodisiac known to man.

 Your digestive system will grow in ability. She will effectively absorb all the nutrients that you need to sustain an optimum body. She will expel, with ease, all the impurities that can cause your body to slow down to a sudden halt.

 Every time you ran, you have your “me time” You are on your own. You can use that time to listen to the uplifting sounds in your brain. You can use it to discipline your mind to focus on the task at hand. You can use it to ruminate over a particular issue in your life. You can use that time to listen to audio books. You can use that time to generate positive energy.

 Either way you look at it, running is a good form of exercise to adopt. It is the kind of habit that will be of benefit to you now and when you reach the evening of your life.

Go get yourself a pair of running shoes. Lace up and ran for your life.
