Last week, I found that I had punched in the morning for 700 consecutive days. I feel that I have been running for more than 700 days and nights without knowing it, and I have been running continuously. Whether it's windy or rainy, whether it's cold or hot, I've run more than 8,000 kilometers, lost 40 pounds, become more self-disciplined, and my work, study and life have changed, so I can run a better self.
I started running three years ago. At that time, there was a lack of exercise and social activities because of working overtime for a long time to write materials. In less than a year, I was a "six-bar cadre" who was laughed at by people. I am like a greasy middle-aged man in his twenties.
Three years ago, after the spring of 20 15, I decided to run in the morning. I wanted to see if I could lose this fat. But I didn't expect that three days ago, God gave me a slap in the face. In the weather of MINUS ten degrees in the north, I went out smoking, and the whistling north wind made the trees on both sides of the road tremble wildly, and my face turned red when I went out. As soon as I stretched out my hand, I was numb with cold. At this moment, a voice came, "Let's warm up in a quiet room. It's so cold outside, why bother yourself? " .
I ran five laps on the first day, 2.12km. The next day, it was 100 meters again. On the third day, I ran six laps and reached 3 kilometers. My leg hurts and my knee hurts when I go back. I asked a friend who is a fitness instructor, and he told me that you are so fat and too strong. Let's have a rest.
I rested for two or three days, but I was not convinced: "Why can people lose weight successfully? Why can people run more than 40 kilometers of marathons, and I am destined to be a fat man who is laughed at?" Why? "
"Try running for a month first," I said to myself. So I set my alarm clock at 4: 55 every day, ring once, get up and say to myself "Go, run". It gets dark in the north after five o'clock in the morning. I put on my clothes and shoes, put on my mask and went out.
One lap, two laps ... 10 lap, 1 km, 2 km ... 5 km, ran 5. 15 km in the first month, and so on for a month. But the reality is cruel. After running for a month, he didn't lose weight at all, and he was still a fat man. Later, I realized that the method was wrong, so I shut up, increased my fitness training and got better exercise. (See the article: "I tried my best to lose weight, but I didn't lose weight at all, until I realized that I lost more than 30 kilograms in five and a half years")
Since running, in order to supervise myself, I have clocked in the circle of friends every day and recorded my running, from the first day to the100th day, to the 200th day, the 500th day and the 700th day.
On the100th day, I wrote an article for myself in this life.
I wrote another article in 500 days. (See the article: "What have I gained after running for 500 days? 》 )
When I was running, I lost more than 30 kilograms in half a year. I am very happy. I can wear the clothes I want, and my spiritual temperament has become different. (See article: "How did I lose more than 30 kilograms in half a year? 》 )
Later, I had to prepare for the big exam for some time. I ran less, rebounded a little, and continued to run, losing 10 A Jin month. (For details, please refer to the article "I lost 30 kg in half a year, and recently lost 1 month 10 kg. I have some suggestions").

Later, running became my hobby and habit. Running has opened a door for me, a colorful spiritual world, a practice of self-discipline and a search for the meaning of life.
I started running marathons. I ran dozens of marathons a year, 10 half a horse mile, and won many medals.
I started walking 10,000 steps every day for more than 200 days.
I started using the APP to record the number of steps every day. In more than two years, the number of steps reached more than 8,000 kilometers.
I began to challenge myself to read 100 books, watch 100 movies and visit 10 cities every year. ......
I began to meditate. Run every day to vent your unhappy things and negative emotions, and give more positive energy, positive encouragement and care to relatives and people around you.
I began to measure every city with my feet, and I also took running shoes with me on business trips.
Get to know some runners, join the running group, and punch in regularly.
Running also makes me more disciplined. There is a saying, "How can you talk about freedom if you can't even be self-disciplined?"
Every time I want to give up something worthy of persistence, such as studying, getting up early, writing articles, and feel lazy, I say to myself, "Hold on a little longer", and I also see my changes and meet a better self. (See the article "Self-discipline makes years" for details. These little habits persisted for a year and completely changed my life! 》 )
Running, this little thing has brought a lot of changes, which is worth persisting in.
Since I started running, I have been running for more than 700 days. I ran 8000 kilometers in the morning and lost 40 pounds.
I don't want to compare with others, I want to surpass myself. Stick to your heart, so as to achieve your ultimate goal.

Regarding running, the following are my 12 suggestions, which I hope will be useful to everyone:
0 1
Run step by step, don't run too much at first. If you want to stick to it, start your initial run according to the situation, starting from 2 km and 3 km, and gradually improve.
02
People who are particularly fat start to lose weight, and running is not recommended. Imagine that your legs supporting nearly 100 kg of upper body will wear your knees. This will hurt your limbs, not worth the loss. Starting with the simplest fitness equipment, playing badminton and swimming are also good choices.
03
Give yourself some time to run. I usually choose to run in the morning because I have the habit of getting up early. I get up after 5 o'clock, have a drink of water and run straight out. Generally, I run for more than 5 kilometers and a half hours on weekdays. At least 10 km on weekends, almost once a month and a half. All this takes time, so you should allocate your time reasonably.
04
You can listen to comfortable music while running. Those music make your body relax, so you won't feel stressed and relaxed when running. If you want to learn some online courses, you can open the APP to listen to the course audio and books. After running for half an hour every day, you can listen to books and courses for about 20 minutes. Running your brain is easy, and it is very efficient at this time. It is also suitable for learning while running. Just remember to tidy up your notes after running.
05
The purpose of running should be clear. Remember to weigh yourself every day if you want to lose weight. Although there is no motivation to weigh yourself every day, because your weight will fluctuate up and down one day, if you see yourself losing one or two kilograms a week and three or four kilograms a month, I believe you will be full of motivation.
06
Running can join the organization. It's hard for a person to persist. You can join a tour group and find a group of like-minded people to run with, so you can stick to it better. And because of some tour activities, your social circle has widened and your life has become colorful.
07
Running should be combined with other sports, such as simple sit-ups, upper limb training, equipment, yoga, swimming, so that aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise will be more effective.
08
Running has its own rhythm. You don't have to run every day, four times a week, and rest every week.
09
Stretch before running. I stretch for about ten minutes before and after running every day, stretching my limbs to avoid injury and so-called leg thickness.
10
Run, don't run too much at once. For example, if you run 5 kilometers at ordinary times and challenge half a horse at a time, people who are not trained will definitely get hurt. Running sometimes requires professional guidance, such as running posture, stride frequency, air-to-air ratio, speed, heart rate and so on. Professional runners will also learn running knowledge and carry out professional training.
1 1
Running, willing to buy equipment. Just like you exercise, you need good sportswear. Girls need to buy a set of simulated sports bra when stretching and a comfortable yoga mat when doing yoga. Necessary nursing and preventive measures are needed. It's not good if you get hurt during exercise, so it's necessary to buy a pair of good running shoes and a comfortable running suit.
12
Running, don't ask fun run if it is better to run in the morning. In fact, both are good, mainly depending on personal habits and time. If you are an early riser, run in the morning. If you have time to run in the gym at night, go to fun run. Be responsible for yourself before running, whether it's morning running or fun running. Don't run in foggy weather, and don't go to unsafe places like fun running.
Running is a matter of improving quality, whether it is health or personal life, or enhancing charm.
Running, using friends to run, Shen squid's sentence is "no need to wait, no need."
Run. I'm on my way. Are you coming? Come on together!
