Good long distance running is not easy!

Running seems to be second nature to anyone, as long as both your feets are above ground at any one time, you are running! But, to run well, long and fast is extremely difficult. You need to really treat your body well to actually attain a certain level of competency in running. This is why to be certified a gold standard runner takes a lot of discipline and determination, plus some level of natural talent. Maintaining the mileage is critical, watching what you eat is critical and resting well is critical as well. A normal person will not be able to achieve the gold standard of sub 2:10 in a marathon ever in their life time. A serious runner will be more likely to aim for a sub 3 hours which will be a dream come true for 99 percent of all runners!

Runners need to watch their body weight

It is extremely important for runners to watch how much they weigh, imagined if you are overweight by 5kg, it's like you run carrying a 5kg backpack! Your legs will be stressed, they are built to carry only a certain body weight. So remember to cut back when you are hurting more from a sore legs.

A Divided World

There are so many reports of people getting killed by bombs or attacks everyday, why so ? Because the world is divided, different people having a agenda of their own, not happy with their own circumstances! Agenda is fine, but many are misled by their own kind.
