I would definitely agree with everyone else that running is mentally challenging. It's like the first time I was able to run a mile. Great feeling, it gives you confidence to pull it off a second time. (I just did this last week, I can run a mile this time). It also helps you focus. So the next time you run and you begin to get tired at about .5 of a mile, you can think, hey I can run to .8 got to stay focused! And when .8 starts rolling around you focus on .81, then .82, then .83. Next thing you know bingo you've run a mile! Congratz!
