Walk / Jog / Run ... they all serve the same purpose !! Refreshing your mind ..... I know some might say it gives your body a fitness dosage for the day, but over past few months I see it serving some different purpose than the usual .....
Refreshing works in multiple ways, current topics in your head get a fresh re-boot. I tend to think a little differently when I am walking and have nothing but the sidewalk under me !! Not standing on tough deadlines, not balancing between two professional supervisors just pure and plain walking on a side-walk ....
Now where you walk can make a huge difference, some do it along a park where there are plenty of distractions; some do it on a treadmill with TV or co-fitness enthusiast and so on. But amongst all these side walk is an assured items ... once you have passed it once or twice, there is nothing new to admire. Its not a play ground so kids do not come running in your track and just follow the occasional ZEBRA crossing and you need not worry about the automobiles either (at least in my current country).
With temperature turning warmer, my runs are more regular and more so I am using them as an escape after long day at work in evening hours. Just like u dream of road after a 5-6 hours drive, my mind still return to all the numbers, presentations and targets, but I am getting more and more surer of the 'side-walk' that it will refresh my mind but still not so sure of it will help my waist-line ....
Many a times I am reminded of the quote from the movie 'What a Woman Wants' ... Signing-off, nJoy ...
The main actor is pitching an ad campaign to Nike Women's Team. The commercial was a girl running with the following narration:
You don't stand in front of a mirror before a run...and wonder what the road, will think of your outfit.
You don't have to listen to its, jokes and pretend they're funny.
It would not be easier to run, if you dressed sexier.
The road doesn't notice, if you're not wearing lipstick.
It does not care, how old you are.
You do not feel uncomfortable...
because you make more money
than the road.
And you can call on the road
whenever you feel like it,
whether it's been a day...
or a couple of hours
since your last date.
The only thing
the road cares about...
is that you pay it a visit
once in a while.
Nike.
No games.
Just Sports.
