Wellbeing & Health benefits of running
At PetroStrat, we’re committed to supporting your overall well-being, including your mental health. We know that taking care of yourself is essential, and we encourage you to find activities that bring you joy and help you relax. Running is a fantastic way to improve both your physical and mental health, and overall wellbeing.
Here are some benefits of running, which we would like to share with you:
- Running regularly can also be a great stress reliever and has even been shown to combat depression.
- There’s evidence it may help increase bone density in some people, which can help protect against bone diseases like osteoporosis.
- There are also mental benefits of running. Taking on the challenge of Couch to 5K can help boost your confidence and self-belief, as you prove to yourself that you can set yourself a target and achieve a goal.
