If you really want to join the group of run commuting there are aspects that you will need to consider. Although studies have showed the physical, mental  and economic benefits there are obstacles that you will need to consider to be able to enjoy your daily commute. Here are some questions to see if you are well prepared:

  • Is your commute route realistic, how long will it take you?

  • Is your gear light and run commuter friendly?

  • If you are running to work, were will you shower? Will you need a change of clothes?

  • How about some company? Music or podcasts?

56% – Increase of run commuters since 2017

Focus and See the Results

In conclusion, it all comes down to preparation. If you are just starting, take it into small consistent steps. Set measurable goals, for example: “I want to run 4 days a week to work”. Break that goal into milestones, example: “I will start by running just 2 days a week or run just part of my commute route”. What it really takes, is the commitment to your goals and eventually, you will turn these milestones into a habit. Progressively built and start enjoying your commute and be grateful for the results you so rightfully earned.

Let me know how you are doing…

Yours and only,

Student Commuter – Where the Magic Happens

September 21st, 2021|General|

There was always a tendency to compare the student that commutes to the "traditional student" living on campus.
