Does one of these situations sound familiar?

- Your tactful husband saying: “Haven’t you put on a bit?” while watching a Victoria’s Secret catwalk on TV; - Your 6 year old kid saying: “Mum can’t play hide and seek because she’s out of breath after 5 seconds.”

- Your colleague returning from his holiday toned and slim whilst you’ve put on pounds after all those summer drinks…

If so, you’ve probably already told yourself: “That’s it, I’m getting back in shape!” but have not managed to stick to it. So why not try running, which, in addition to burning tons of calories, will make you younger and happier?
