Running lowers your blood pressure, eases muscular tension, and promotes a sense of calm. The release of endorphins boosts your mood and alleviates depression.
Jogging or running involves very little equipment other than a pair of running shoes. It's best to go to a sport or running shop where a specialist can help you choose the right shoes for you.
Running is free and is an easily accessible form of exercise for most people. It burns more calories than many other forms of exercise.
