I feel like gains from running stay with you a long time also. Once I was a runner, it was so much easier to go back to running five miles easily if I ever quit and went back to it. I think there is some body and muscle memory that remains.
- underlipton 2y agoI wonder how the benefits of running regularly compare to living in an area where most of your daily trips are taken by bike or walking.
- Mistletoe 2y agoI think I've read that true endurance and strength of your heart is built running over one hour at a time and in my experience that seems true. Our bodies are so lazy and don't make changes until they absolutely have to. I run 7 miles every Sunday or so. I based that number on that and this paper which shows mortality vs. distance run per week. People that run too much have mortality like a sedentary person! https://www.mayoclinicproceedings.org/article/S0025-6196(16)00068-9/fulltext https://www.mayoclinicproceedings.org/article/S0025-6196(16)...
