What is Fitness?
Stated simply… fitness is the capacity to do something and it’s generally physical in nature. In essence, if you desire to increase your fitness level you desire to increase your ability to do a particular physical activity. So, if your 5k PR (personal record) is 22 minutes on a particular course and you run the same course a year later 2 minutes faster then previously performed, there’s a good chance you’ve increased your running fitness. Notice I mentioned “running” fitness only! Fitness comes in many shapes and sizes… and it’s difficult to have a high level of fitness in all activities, but it’s a great goal to have!
