Long-distance running is running at least 5 miles. Have you ever tried it?
The most I have run is about 2 miles. Do you know how long a marathon is?
I'm not absolutely sure. I do know it's greatly aerobic and in addition to stamina it takes mental strength too
Yeah there is no way I could finish a marathon. I thought I heard someone say they are 26.2 miles. That is insane.
That's what I was thinking as well. Humans are the best at running significant distances. I find that amazing
I bet it is evolutionary. We had to escape our predators or risk being eaten.
Yes, exactly! Also, hunting and gathering. It's great for cardiovascular health now that we don't have to run from many predators
It is a great form of exercise. It's also nice we have have treadmills so you can stay stationary.
Definitely! It's in the a/c too haha Even the military uses running as training so it must be good
You build up a lot of stamina with running. Never know when you will need to move quick or get attacked.
