Let’s get out every day in December till Christmas!
December can whizz past in a blur of parties, shopping and wrapping presents. Before you know it, it’s Christmas Eve and you can’t remember the last time you laced up your running shoes. But during what can be a stressful few weeks for many, it’s more important than ever to do something to help you keep calm. And we all know the benefits of exercise when it comes to getting some headspace.
Dedicating yourself to a December challenge is a great way to get some fresh air, do some exercise and switch off for half an hour. While some runners challenge themselves to run every day in December, we’re suggesting you aim to keep active for half an hour or more between 1 December and Christmas Day. Imagine how smug you’ll feel pulling on your new slippers after 25 days of getting out and moving your body. Use this challenge as a fun end to the year. Unlike your regular training plans, there’s no race at the end of it, and no pressure to hit a certain distance each week.
