Running with the community.

Hey guys, This is the SECOND post by Samuel! Today I am going to talk about how you can improve your running . If you have any questions you are free to comment on this post. :)

So this post will tell you about how you can actually engaging the social media while you are running. Cool isn't it?

First, Join a local running club(Track & Field) or join CCAs that involves you to do running with your friends and enjoy the CCA with your friends, so that you will not get bored after running hundreds of miles! So join a CCA or you can join a club that makes you run alot and you will gain your stamina while running!

Secondly, download this application called the 'nike+ running' (Only for apple user) so that it will track the miles that you have ran. You can even challenge yourself by running faster while having the urge to run faster when you are on the 5 kilometer mark and beating the clock of your previous record. This application also tracks your speed and how fast you had ran. Finally, you can also sees whether you are running faster than most of the people that are running that is on the community as they put the total miles that average people run everyday. So this is a must-have application if you wanna be motivated to run even more!

Running Tips By Samuel Toh

Hi this is Samuel and I am going to give you tips on how to improve your running.

What kind of apparel should i wear when running? Well everybody will ask the question when it comes to running and they do not know what to wear.

First tip, Wear spandex shorts under your regular running shorts! It is important that you wear a proper wear when running. Because it will protect your legs from getting hurt while running and you will not be exposed your 'parts' while running so it is suggested that you should wear a spandex shorts under your regular running shorts! :)

Second tip, Wear socks that is designed for running and not wearing socks that is made of cotton. It is because cotton is a has a rough surface when you land on the ground. So it will give you blisters when you run every step. So my advise to you is to wear socks that is designed for running :) So that it will have a good surface for you to land on the steps when you run and you will not have blisters all over your leg and you will run better with a softer platform.

Third and final tip, buy a running shoe and DO not run with sneakers! Many of you are wondering why not running with sneakers? Because when you run with sneakers people will feel weird when you run with sneakers and am wonder why would people run with sneakers? So I suggest you should run with a proper running shoe and a nice looking running shoe would be nice! So that it will motivate you to run the extra mile and keep on running.

Happy and keep on running,
Samuel Toh Yao Rong
