Earn more, Start Running!

From the blog Live Longer, Start Running we learned; runners live longer. New research shows runners earn more money as well. OK, this goes for people who exercise regularly in general. Not specifically for running.

The positive effect of regular exercises on your salary can be in the range from 6 to 10%. The results also show that while even moderate exercise yields a positive earnings effect, frequent exercise generates an even larger impact. Just another argument to get of from the coach!

The explanation is two fold: Regular exercising requires discipline, behaviour shown in work environment as well. Of course people who sport have higher energy levels, not only physically but mentally as well. Apparently this shows of in their work and is rewarded with a higher salary.

Live longer and earn more money. I think we have found a way out of the financial crisis;p
