Did you know? Stretching your "cold muscles" before running does more harm than good because it can reduce your muscle strength and affect running efficiency. Therefore, a simple warm-up is sufficient before running.You can clickhereto see the correct warm-up methods~

Although even cats can't catch up, humans are actually the best long-distance runners on Earth because our sweating system is more advanced than any other mammal's, giving us great endurance in long-distance running. (Other animals might overheat and die from running...)

For some runners with a strong "musical bacteria," listening to music while running can improve performance by 15%! (And it's easier to achieve a runner's high). Research shows that listening to music can reduce feelings of frustration and fatigue by 10% during running. When music stimulates the brain externally, some internal signals, such as those from tired muscles or organs, can't reach the brain. This is why listening to music often makes running feel easier and faster.

Just one hour of exercise per week can cut the risk of heart disease in half. Running also reduces the risk of the following diseases:

Depression risk by 19%

Cataract risk by 35%

Thymus cancer risk by 25%

Running before brainstorming can spark your creativity, making brain cells extremely active for the next few hours. The famous writer Haruki Murakami finds writing inspiration while running and even wrote a book about running: "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running." Want to get things done?

Did you know that women were banned from running marathons until the 1990s? Medical claims at the time stated that running 26 miles would damage a woman's uterus. Of course, such rumors were debunked. Other similar rumors about women include: women can't ride bicycles, otherwise...(use your imagination)

A common issue for running beginners is being obsessed with increasing their running mileage. For newcomers to the running community, the duration of running is more important. Once the time accumulates, the habit of running will naturally form.

If you run 20 kilometers every day and keep it up for 2004 days (about 5 years and 6 months), you will accumulate 40,080 kilometers, successfully "running" around the Earth's equator!

It is said that runners wearing red perform better in races than those wearing other colors. According to the British journal "Nature," red represents aggression and can subconsciously intimidate competitors, especially when the competitors are evenly matched.

Don't be stingy when buying running shoes, as a good pair can last for 650-800 kilometers. In other words, buying a well-fitting and durable pair of running shoes is one of the most important investments for a runner.
