With running apps, coaches, run clubs and specialist gear on the rise, now might just be the best time to get into running. Whether you have your sights set on a marathon or you simply want to up your fitness game and your only competition is yourself, running is a great way to find community, get fit and focus on your longevity.
A leading study on cardio showed that running a short course, or even walking it on a regular basis can add years to your life and keep you vital for years to come. Plus, the run club might soon replace the pub, as thousands of people are turning to social running for community, mental health support and a way to reconnect with family and friends.
