Joy Run #21: Newness ✨

New year, new routes?

One way to rediscover the joy of running is to mix things up.

The usual routes, routines and end goal can become a little stale. They’re also a recipe for repeat injuries.

Instead of the usual new year, new you pressure, this Joy Run theme is about the small things you can do to reinvigorate your running….

Fortunately, all it takes is a few tweaks here and there to make running feel new and exciting again.

It could be:

• the injection of new running routes

• new podcasts or playlists to listen to

• a new running partner or group

• recording your runs with a photo or journaling

• a new post-run reward

• squeezing a run into a lunchbreak

• exploring a new city on the move

• picking a new landmark to run to

• heading out when you least want to

• mixing up your paces …the possibilities are endless.

As always, don’t forget to tag Joy Runs on Instagram with your efforts.

Here’s How It Works

• A new theme is revealed every Monday

• You have all week to run it

• Share a pic and reflections on Instagram, tagging in Joy Runs

• Grow in the company of other runners
