Here's a list of some of the most benefits running can bring into your life:

Running is great for weight loss:

Running can help you burn all those excess calories that is stored in your body and achieve the body weight and waistline you always wanted. Just keep in mind the golden rule of weight loss: burn more calories than you take in.

Running can slow down the aging process:

According to a study conducted over two decades by Stanford University School of Medicine. Researchers kept records of more than 500 older runners for about 20 years. What they found was that aged runners have fewer disabilities, and stayed healthier for longer time than the other group of non-runners, and are also half as likely to die early from cardiovascular problems and other diseases.

Lower pressure and strong heart:

Running can have a helpful effect on lowering and taking down blood pressure, it also toughens the most important muscle in your body, your heart, and therefore, it reduces the danger of heart attacks and other cardiac problems.

Running and intelligence:

Running not only will make you healthier, it also may make you more intelligent. A study suggested that running or doing any exercise routine may supply to the creation of new connections between the nerve cells in the brain and even to stimulate the growth of new cells, thus leading to superior and better mental function. This no surprise for me because I get my best ideas while I'm running.

Stress relief:

Running has been scientifically shown and proved to reduce tension and anxiety, fight depression and build confidence. When you are running your body releases chemicals known as Endorphins, they are the "feel good" brain chemicals. Often called natural painkillers, they have calming and soothing effects on nerves and muscles.

Running and productivity:

Running decreases mental tiredness, and creates a feeling of being more active and energetic. At times, more than physical fatigue, it is mental fatigue that negatively brings down your productivity. Hence, running can make you more productive on the job.

Running reduces anxiety and depression levels:

Running has an antidepressant effect on exercisers, decreasing anxiety and boosting serotonin levels. It can also offer a distraction from your problems. Anxiety is driven by negative thinking, thus when you change your thinking, you change your mental state.

Of course, this is just a short list of the benefits you can enjoy if you keep running regularly. Good luck with your running training.
