The 8 Key Musts To Weight Loss:

It is thought that our ancestors developed the ability to run for long distances over 2 million years ago, most likely in order to hunt down animals for food. 2 million years later we are still running, but for the most part, differing reasons. Running has numerous cardiovascular benefits, it can aide weight loss, can be used as a vehicle for goal setting and can also satisfy our competitive urges. Running is frequently recommended as therapy for people with clinical depression and people coping with addiction. It is the perfect escape from the anarchy that is the 21st Century. And don't we need it!! Our supposed "evolution" has seen an onset of obesity and inactivity in recent years. Cases of mental illness are steadily increasing. Living in our major cities is becoming less affordable. We are working longer hours to try and finance an unaffordable dream. All the time our stress levels are increasing and our health is in rapid decline. The great Australian Dream is exactly that.... a Dream! A fanciful dream.
