Running

Running is a form of physical exercise that involves moving swiftly on foot. It is characterized by a constant and rapid pace, often distinguished from walking by the fact that for a moment during each stride, both feet are off the ground. Running can be performed for various purposes, including fitness, competition, recreation, and transportation. It is noted for its health benefits, such as improving cardiovascular fitness, building muscular strength, and supporting mental well-being. Running can be done on various terrains, such as tracks, trails, roads, and treadmills, and it can range from short sprints to long-distance events, including marathons.
