I began running 2 or 3 times a week, and started
participating in 5K races. Later, I started running
some 5 Mile runs and 10K's.
Many of these races raise money that benefit worthy causes. I
have been encouraged by a gradual improvement in my times.
I highly recommend running as a great way of
staying
motivated, improving your health, and having fun!
