What changes will happen in your life after a year of consistent running?

Encountering happiness

As long as you start running, sooner or later you will encounter happiness. After running for a certain period, the pituitary gland starts secreting endorphins, creating a sense of pleasure, and your body feels light and energetic. You will feel like you can run forever. After running, your body feels relaxed and warm, and your mood becomes peaceful.

Saying goodbye to belly fat

Saying goodbye to your belly fat essentially means losing weight. Research shows that 30 minutes of steady jogging can burn over 390 calories. In comparison, cycling and tennis can only burn 277 and 272 calories respectively in the same amount of time. So, if you choose the right exercise, you can achieve a satisfactory physique more quickly.

Gaining a strong physique

Gaining a strong physique is possible if you dedicate three days a week to running. Your cartilage will become more resilient due to the stimulation, and sunlight will promote the synthesis of vitamin D in your body, increasing bone density. After three months of persistence, your risk of fractures will be reduced by about 40% compared to your peers. After a year, you will have a strong physique.

Becoming more reliable

Becoming more reliable is something all running enthusiasts can feel. Running not only trains your physical abilities but also affects your mindset. When you work hard towards a goal every day, you become more focused and value the goal's importance to you. When this mindset transfers to your work, your boss will notice that you are a reliable and valuable person.

Appreciating the beauty of nature

Appreciating the beauty of nature becomes easier. Do you feel like you are always an observer in an air-conditioned room, regardless of the weather? Think about how long it has been since you went out to experience it. Go for a run; these weather conditions are not as scary as they seem. By immersing yourself in them, you will be influenced by nature's vitality and become more optimistic.

Sleeping better

Sleeping better is a benefit discovered by a research group at Stanford University. Regular runners experience deep muscle and joint stimulation, requiring self-repair. This causes the body to adjust itself to a state more conducive to deep sleep. As a result, these individuals fall asleep 20 minutes earlier and enter deep sleep more easily than those who do not run.

Overcoming procrastination

Helping you overcome procrastination. Ten years ago, when discussing psychological issues, we often mentioned 'everyone has OCD.' Now, it has become 'we all have procrastination.' As tasks increase and people become lazier, execution ability declines, and even bedtime is delayed. Regular, scheduled running can make you more punctual, and your biological clock will become healthier.

Saving on medical expenses

Saving 5000 yuan on medical expenses annually. You might think running shoes are expensive, but after wearing out a new pair, you will realize you haven't had a cold or fever for a while. Regular outdoor running boosts your immune system, making you more adaptable to changing temperatures, humidity, and other environmental factors, reducing your likelihood of getting sick.

Quitting bad habits

Quitting bad habits faster. Smoking, drinking, overeating... One reason these habits are hard to break is that they provide a strong sense of satisfaction. However, research shows that the pleasure derived from running is similar to that from these bad habits. Observing those who love running, you will notice they have good physiques and enjoy running.

Sharpening your mind

Sharpening your mind. Research from Illinois State University found that long-term running and cardio exercises can reduce reaction times by about 15%. Although this is only approximately 0.03 seconds, it is enough to make others perceive you as more alert and attentive to details, leaving a good impression on them.
