Lets take a look at the benefits of running for weight loss versus dieting.

Dieting

  • Although you lose weight, you are not fitter or much healthier.
  • Your still stressed (probably even more because now your hungry) and in a bad mood all the time.
  • Yup, you kick the dog, shout at the kids and your husband wishes you would just quit the diet and return to normal, sounds about right?

Running

  • Start slowly, lose weight gradually, and because you are exercising you can actually eat more (the right foods of course). Your weight stabilizes and because Running is addictive your long term plan is in place.
  • Your health improves, you get fitter and stronger.
  • Running reduces stress, and releases endorphins into your system which make you feel good
