Don't dread running. Learn how to make it fun.This remarkably concise book is packed with funny stories and helpful strategies to help you find the fun in your own running. Loved it! --Simon Marshall, author of The Brave Athlete.
For years, Danielle searched for the motivation she needed to get in shape. Finally Danielle found something better than motivation. This book is not about motivation. This book takes away the need for motivation by making running into something fun.
"How could running ever be fun?" you say.
Think back (way back) to when you were a toddler. No one needed to motivate you to run. They just needed to pretend to be a monster who somehow possessed tickle fingers. You happily run laps around the house. It's not so different now. It's just harder to find someone who's willing to play tickle monster with you (and you might have different ideas of fun now anyway, although I'd suggest trying tickle monster again--it's a classic).
Based on the science of playfulness
Danielle is a comedy writer with a passion for psychology, science, and athletics. She uses psychological concepts to help her readers understand motivation, habits, and self-esteem. Her philosophy is that laughter is the best way to learn.
Self-help done right
If you want to become a runner or make any changes in your life, it starts with psychology. Danielle has done the research so that you can take advantage of all the benefits.
Become A Streaker is based on the 8 play personalities defined by Dr. Stuart Brown.

Make Running Fun
"We need physical activity in our lives yet so many of us struggle with motivation to get out and run."
Forget the motivation and focus on the fun.
Keep your pants on though. This book is about how to make running fun, not illegal.
