What does your running style say about you?

For you, running is a time for reflection and personal growth - and we’re not just talking about improving your run pace. In a world of busy commutes and long meetings, there’s nothing as blissful as hitting the pavement for some alone time. And we now know that running not only benefits our physical health, but our mind and spirit, too. So, whether you’re heading out with your favourite playlist or just the melody of some mindful meditation, we hope your next run gives you that perfect dose of “me time”.

Personal Motto:
“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.”
- Confucius

As the saying goes, you are your own worst enemy. But you’re also your own greatest cheerleader. Competitive to the bone, you know success relies on staying focused and keeping distractions to a minimum. Comparing yourself to others is a needless distraction when the most important race is the one you run against your own personal best. This approach to fitness means you’re always improving and we wouldn't be surprised if you’ve got some epic wins in your future.

Personal Motto:
“The sky is not my limit… I am.”
– T.F. Hodge

Nothing gets the energy flowing like a bit of competition - and in your opinion, the more people in the game, the merrier! You don’t simply love social activities - you thrive on them. Add a medal to be won, and you’re in heaven. But even if you don’t place first at the end of the race, all of the fun, laughing and camaraderie is pretty rewarding, too. With that outlook, you contribute a positive energy to every running group you join, and you’re often the one leading the way, organising meet-ups and fun runs.

Your motto:
"Race to test yourself, for the ritual, the camaraderie, and for the adventure and discovery."

You’re everyone’s favourite run-buddy! Warm, positive, and heaps of fun, you light-up every run you join. You’re always lifting people’s spirits with your good humour and fun-approach to fitness, and you've probably founded a running club or two. You enjoy a race as much as the next person, but for you it’s more about the journey than the finish line itself. If you've ever placed last in a group run, it was probably because you were helping a runner-in-need through to the end.


P.S. You'll love our running tribes - they let you connect and run with people around the world who share your goals and interests! Check it out on www.raceful.ly


Your running motto:
“Surround yourself with only people who are going to lift you higher.”
- Oprah Winfrey

Nothing pushes you harder than a little competition with your best running mate - and if your friends are as competitive as you, you must be getting some pretty great workouts! Studies have shown that running with other people really does improve your pace and speed through “social facilitation”. Just being with other people and, in particular, other competitive people, works wonders on your run time! But for you, it’s not just any runner that cuts it - you love running with your closest friends because you know you can rely on each other to give it all you’ve got.

Your personal motto:
“Anything you can do, I can do better!”

Rain or shine, your friends can always rely on you to join them for a run - especially if they’re in need of a little support and motivation. You’re quite happy to run with people of every level, adjusting your speed to accommodate a friend who’s just getting started or someone training for their next race. If we had to guess, you’re probably the person in your friend group encouraging everyone to try running, and you’ve probably got a few fun runs in your near future. Your positivity and reliability make you a great friend - not only on a run, but in every situation! :)
