My favourite sport is running. There are just times when you feel like you just want to get up and run! I for instance, would just grab my I-pod and run out when I need to belt out my frustrations and woes. It works every time! Running is good holistically; except for those who are restrained to do it due to health reasons. Physically, it keeps you fit because it requires a great deal of energy burning up calories. It also decreases the chances of getting a stroke or a heart attack since it lowers the blood pressure and maintains the elasticity of your arteries. It slows down the aging process because of the toxins you sweat out and the strength- training you give to your muscles and bones. Psychologically, running releases the “happy hormones” or endorphins responsible for that natural high.
