Scientists agree that we can use running as a tool to improve the way we think and feel. Whilst running won't solve all our problems it can return focus, vanquish stress and improve mood. Why? Because exercise reduces levels of the body's stress hormones, such as adrenaline and cortisol. It also stimulates the production of endorphins, chemicals in the brain that are the body's natural painkillers and mood elevators
