Experts say that a daily running exercise is usually much more effective than a sporadic one. Now I believe it.

This morning I went to the gym for a brief workout after a seven-day interval. I started with running since a coach has told me that it was better to warm up a bit before getting on any muscle exercises. I have not run on a treadmill for a long while. Getting the machine started took me longer than I thought. And a strange “ clank-clank” noise caught me off guard as soon as the machine started. Maybe a faster speed will get rid of the noise? I thought so I started to press the “speed” button. Before I knew it, the belt under my feet was moving at a super fast speed and I could hardly keep up. Reading the speedometer, it said “ 16.2km”. Immediately, I pressed the “Emergency Stop” button and the treadmill came to an abrupt stop. I have forgotten that normal running speed is 8km per hour, not 16!
