Not sure if some of you would agree with me, but nothing is more grueling, challenging and so un fun as running a distance of alteast two miles WITHOUT stopping.
I ran my first 5K since hs X-Country and it was the "hell on earth". It was also 90F and humid.
Nothing gives you a greater sense of accomplishment than completing that run when your mind and body wanted you to quit one mile or so back.
I will never understand that distance running does not get the respect it deserves.
Weightlifting is considered MORE MACHO than running, but running is 5X harder than Weightlifting.
X-Country practice to me was more grueling than wrestling practice ("high schools toughest sport).
You want to increase confidence in life and push your limits, go out and start running.
