Your only competition is the person you were yesterday.
Under Armour (UA) invites you to train alongside fitness professionals in preparation for its “All Out Mile” event curated for young and old alike. Singapore's runners will be empowered to run their quickest mile or 1.6km with UA’s help and support. On the fence? Here are five benefits that will make it worthwhile!
3. Improved Overall Health
Running frequently strengthens your heart by boosting aerobic capacity and aiding in the maintenance of good blood pressure and cholesterol levels. It also strengthens your muscles and boosts your immune system. Longer runs also force your body to grow fast-twitch fibers in your muscles, which helps you fight tiredness and gain strength and power.
Additionally, long runs can help you improve your mental tenacity and build a coping strategy for running in difficult circumstances day after day, mile after mile. You will be burning thousands of calories throughout your training, so you can certainly enjoy a guilt-free treat afterward.
You will find yourself going to bed earlier and sleeping better as your body repairs after a physically and mentally challenging routine.
