How To Trick Your Brain Into Running Longer

How To Trick Your Brain Into Running Longer

Have you ever thought about running but been too intimidated to start? Or maybe you've already got an after-work jogging routine and need tips on how to increase your endurance? On this episode of How To!, we reveal the game-changing, unexpected running tips you didn't know you needed with the help of Alex Hutchinson, author of Endure: Mind, Body, and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance, and Shannon Palus, a Slate senior editor and marathon runner. Our experts say the key to running well isn't how fast you go or how many times a week you hit the pavement—instead focus on training your mind to push past your limits. In the process you'll ease your anxiety and build your confidence.
