Further Encouragement for Running

I had lost my running mojo having not run properly for about a month. Decided to tell a couple of friends last night, through the web, that I was going to run this morning. If you tell someone you are going to do something you have to do it, right?

Well whilst wandering around the Internet I found this website - betterpoints.uk/page/active.... It seems BetterPoints rewards activity - not just running - with points that can be turned into gift cards or donations to charity.

You register on line then download an app via Google Play or iTunes to your smartphone.

I registered yesterday and earned 50 points this morning for running for 30 minutes. Not sure how far that takes me towards a "prize", but it is another incentive.
