More importantly, running can help you tap into the unbeatable power of community (albeit digitally) on the coattails of a year that has left many people feeling lonely and anxious. We encourage you to nudge a friend, family member, or significant other to train with you (even if you can't necessarily run side-by-side) so that your runs mean even more. Just make sure you tag us on Instagram with your #sweatyselfies, #runviews, and other #unitedstatesofrunning adventures on Instagram.
We'll see you at the starting line—and every mile after that.
