Run in

We all know that exercise keeps us healthy, but the challenge is squeezing it into our busy lives. By running in to work, school or uni, you can combine your daily workout with your commute and get fitter and healthier as you go.

If you live close enough to your workplace or school, swap your usual form of transport for foot-power and run to your destination.

Why?

Environment

Running is a zero-carbon, zero-pollution mode of transport, and it uses very few raw materials. In fact, it’s one of the most environmentally friendly ways you can travel. No need to use an energy-hungry treadmill to get your heart going – run in instead.

Congestion

Nobody likes traffic jams, so ease congestion by leaving the car at home and running instead. As they say: “you're not stuck in traffic – you are traffic!”

Fun

There’s a reason they call it a ‘runner’s high’ – running makes you feel pretty amazing. Enjoy the great outdoors and explore the backstreets as you speed along your way. And you’ll never have to sit in a traffic jam or wait for a bus.

Health

Running keeps you fit and helps you lose weight.

372 calories 

are burned in 30 minutes of running (assuming average weight, running 6mph¹)

But the benefits don’t stop there: regular running reduces your risk of all kinds of diseases such as diabetes, stroke, heart disease, cancer and osteoporosis. It also improves your mood and mental wellbeing.
