At times, you will come across some people running on the road.

Most of us brush them off thinking they are athletes. However, not all those who do these morning runs are athletes.

Here are the importances of having morning runs before going to work.

1. Morning hangover cure

Here, I am not necessarily talking actual hangovers but those morn¬ings where it’s equally hard to drag your feet out of bed as if you had enjoyed a few more minutes.

Morning runs will help you get fresh crisp air, movement, and extra blood flow which will quickly warm up your body and senses, leaving you ready to tackle the day.

2. Better air

Morning runs protect you from pollution because the morning commuters haven’t muddled it up with their car exhaust yet. This helps you inhale very clean air for the day.

3. Eat more, feel better

Exercising after waking up helps your body relax. This means digestion will take place easily therefore not having problems of loss of appetite.
