AB Running  has  been  the  exercise  of  choice  for  thousands  of  individuals  for  many  years,  whereas  many  others  integrate  a  component  of  running  into  their  total  fitness  strategy.  The  popularity  of  running  can  be  linked  to  a  desire  to  achieve  an  aerobic  and  cardiovascular  benefit,  while  other  runners  use  running  as  a  means  to  effectively  control  body  weight  and  lean  body  mass.  Running  also  can  produce  psychological  benefits  and  can  be  a  useful  form  of  stress  management.  Finally,  there  are  individuals  who  run  to  compete.  A  select  few  in  top  form  aspire  to  “win  the  race,”  but  many  simply  work  to  better  their  own  previous  best  effort  and  “personal  record”  (PR).
