Are you a boring runner?



I came across a paper that Devin wrote four and a half years ago, in fifth grade. I thought it would be appropriate to share since it is track season and Devin is running a lot right now.

Running

Running is one way of exercising and lowering chances of getting heart disease.  Some people, like me, like to run, other people hate to run, and some people think it's o.k.  You have to have lot of calcium in your legs to keep them strong and healthy to run.

The more you run the less chance of getting heart disease.  If you run, you can lose pounds and get skinnier.  You could raise money for the people who have cancer by running, too.  After you run you could do push ups, too.  You could also do pull ups.

Some people like to run, like me, because we started running, then we started enjoying it, though it doesn't happen every time.  Some people hate running because they're lazy.  The people who think running is o.k. are average people.  But if you hate running, you're just being a boring runner.  

To keep your bones strong and healthy, is to drink milk or something that has calcium.  Stretch before you run.  Also, stretch after you run to loosen your muscle.  If you stretch you will have less chances of pulling your muscle.  Make sure to have strong and healthy legs.

If you got strong, powerful, and healthy legs, I say go out and run.  Keep in shape.  Lose some pounds, not gain ten pounds.  If you want to lower your heart disease then run!
