Reasons to run

The only prerequisites for running are a good pair of trainers and, if you are a woman, a sports bra. Despite its simplicity, running can improve your wellbeing in so many ways. It's fantastic for your heart, lungs, bones and muscle tone, burns more than 500 calories per hour, and as singer and marathon devotee Alanis Morissette confirms, it has other perks: "If I'm going through something
emotional and just go out for a run, I'll come back with clarity."
