Why do people run? How can I improve my running performance? Will
running help me feel better? The Psychology of Running provides a
unique insight into why running is such a popular form of exercise
and competition. From evolutionary perspectives on why humans have
needed to run and how our bodies have adapted for this function, to
discussing evidence-based interventions that can improve running
performance, the book delves into the psychological motivations and
benefits of running. The book also considers ways in which running
can be used for social change and life skill development,
highlighting how such a simple activity can have benefits for our
physical and mental health. Providing proven psychological
strategies and techniques to help improve running performance and
boost our individual self-belief, The Psychology of Running shows
us how we can enjoy running, no matter our age or ability.
