PRECISION ENGINEERED TO RUN!

I have often heard, especially before I started running, that running ruins your joints.  I think that this entire rumor was perpetuated by non-runners if you know what I mean!



This morning I "ran" across this informative video on AOL that disposes the question, "Does running cause arthritis?"  If you ever had that concern click right here to get your answer.

I think it's really important to note that every runner needs to be wise.  You need the right equipment, form, nutrition and training schedule for your running to benefit your body to the upmost.

Our bodies were created by an awesome Creator.  We are truly wonderfully and fearfully made!  Yet you will never know that until you utilize every muscle and internal organs to their maximum.  It's like driving a BMW or fine tuned sport's car.  If you only drive it at 35 miles per hour on a straight road, you will never know how amazingly precision-engineered-for-performance the car is.  But if you take a few sharp corners, accelerate to 60 in a few seconds, hit the highway at 85 and break on a dime - you come to see what a fine vehicle you are driving.  Then going back to just any run of the mill car is just not as satisfying.

This is running.  This is working out.  This is living active and pushing your body to do things you don't normally do in your mundane weekly routine.  You discover how finely engineered your body is. Your heart, brain, muscles, ligaments, lungs, and your breath!  AMAZING!  Pushing your body is what you were made for!

So get up, get out and and experience the amazing fine tuning of your body!  It can take it!  It will thrive on it!

Enjoy!
