In celebration of International Sex Day this month, we shared a list of 10 things that running and sex have in common. It isn’t very difficult to come up with that list comparing our passion for running and the latter. So here it is, 10 more reasons to enjoy running and sex.

As a girl who’s as fastidious about how I look as I am about my running shoes, I was interested in knowing more about Newline’s tees, jackets and tights after a girlfriend told me the company story: A Special Forces dude parachuted to earth and realised that while his chute stayed dry, his clothes were perpetually wet! It’s anybody’s guess what secret mission the guy was on when he reached this epiphany, but it wound up as the foundation of Newline sports collections where parachute fabric is a design mainstay. Both my friend and I love men of mystery and hope to run into a few next time we wear our three Newline separates to go for a run!

Unlike most other runs I have taken part in, the Tom and Jerry run was an excellent family bonding experience. In this fast-paced society where we often neglect family time over work, school, or other life commitments, I found it refreshing to see so many family members of different ages come together on a Sunday morning to enjoy some time together exercising under the sun without any unwanted distractions – it was especially heart-warming to witness children around 4 or 5 running alongside their parents and I was happy to be part of it.

Looking to challenge your inner spirit together with your physical condition? Nature trail enthusiasts, here’s a unique and extreme outdoor running event you won’t want to miss!
