What is Running?

Running is like walking, but much faster! Imagine you’re trying to catch a butterfly or race your friend to a tree. Your legs move quicker, and your feet bounce off the ground like springs. When you run, your arms swing back and forth to help you go faster, and your heart beats faster, giving your body energy. It’s a fun way to play, move, and feel super speedy—like being your own superhero!

How does Running help

  • Improves Cardiovascular Health: Strengthens the heart, improves circulation, and lowers the risk of heart disease.
  • Boosts Mental Health: Reduces stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression by releasing endorphins and promoting relaxation.
  • Enhances Endurance and Stamina: Regular running increases lung capacity and overall physical stamina.
  • Promotes Weight Loss: Burns calories efficiently, helping with weight management and fat reduction.
  • Strengthens Muscles and Bones: Builds muscle tone, strengthens bones, and improves joint mobility.

How to start running

  • Do few stretches to warm up your body.
  • Lace up and start running.
  • If you find it hard, do a repeat of run for 100m and walk for 200m five times.
  • Slowly reduce that walking gap between repeats in subsequent runs.
