Hopefully this won't confuse things. And if it does, we'll figure it out along the way. As some (1 or 2 of you at least) know, I've doing a blog called 110DaysRunning and it's chronicled (wow that sounds important my 110 Day Running Streak. Well, thrilled to say about to reach that milestone in 2 days.
So with that coming to an end and, happily, new schools and runners starting with Teens Run Yonkers (TRY) community, I will be transitioning to using this blog to share some tips, humor, ideas, fun and other stuff with members of the TRY Community. And as I've been doing, I'll share it across multiple channels i.e. facebook and twitter. While this may cause some temporary hiccups crossing over from the personal to the organizational - and I could have done a lot of analysis and thought every possibility out - I wanted to just START. And that's the theme of the first day of this blog. JUST START - TAKE ACTION!
I wish I could say I'm clever enough to think of all this great stuff but I found a few great sites that share running and coaching tips and the first one that struck me offered the following:
Beginner Running Tip 1 : It is never too late to start running
Whatever your age: exercise is good for you. Regular exercise gives you the following benefits:
You will have more energy
You will decrease your chances of getting a heart disease
You will decrease your chances of getting cancer
You will sleep better and feel more rested
You will lose weight
And the list does not stop there ! So put on those running shoes and your running clothing and go for it !
(and for the parents and adults reading) By the way, ever checked the number of so called veterans in race results ? The vast majority of the running pack consists of people aged 35 and older. It is never too late to start running !
So, it's no big secret, this comes from http://www.best-running-tips.com/beginner-running-tips.html
And I couldn't have put it better myself. Whether your first run is 5 minutes, .10 miles or whatever, it's 100% better than not getting going. So today is your day. See you outside
