If you find yourself overly distracted - constantly staring out the window, or online bathing suit shopping, maybe you should consider going on a run.
According to Eric Martin, a kinesiology graduate student at MSU, running can boost your cognitive functioning.
That means if you need to make a big decision, like where you're going to live in the fall, a run may help clear your mind.
It also means if you need to get your blood pumping so you can sit down and focus on that 10-page research paper you have due in two days, a run may be the perfect outlet.
According to Martin, running regularly can also benefit your physical health by boosting your immune system.
"People," who run regularly "are generally happier, healthier and live a lot longer," Martin said.
