Long distance running: does that sound insufferable? Impossible? Not fun?
For those who haven’t caught the running bug, The Life Marathon: What Creatives Can Learn From Elite Runners from 99percent.com may just do the job and get you off the couch.

Michalik’s advice is spot on and highly motivational.
