The City to Surf is back again for 2011, and registrations are now open.

So you've said it a million times before. "Next year I'll definitely do the City to Surf." And if you're like me - you still haven't. Well this year is our year folks. Having participated in my first fun run last month, I cannot believe I didn't get on to this sooner.
The City to Surf will be a definite for me this year.

I can't explain the excitement, anticipation, nerves, and absolute joy I get out of fun runs. Exercise can already give you such an amazing natural high, so just imagine how you'll feel on race day. If you don't believe me, then feel free to prove me wrong and register.

And you don't have to go hell for leather. You can walk, jog, skip, or run the 4km at any pace you wish. Wheelchairs entrants can also do the 4km. If 4km is just short of that natural high, then you can walk or run the 12km. If you're absolutely mad, you can run the 21km half marathon, or the 42km marathon.

The event takes place on August 28, which gives you plenty of time to get in tip top shape.

I recommend writing yourself up a training program. It gives you a goal for the race by beating your best time, and keeps you on a regular exercise program without it feeling like exercise.

You can also check out some more training tips on the City to Surf website, here .

And while you're on a role, why not change those bad eating habits. Healthy eating can help with energy levels you require to exercise, and do a trillion other great things for your mind and body.

This doesn't mean counting your calories like a crazy person, just swapping the bad for the better. Like grabbing a water or fresh juice instead of soft drink, and snacking on fresh fruit and yoghurt, or vegetables dipped in hummus instead of chocolate freckles and sour worms.

Not only will you gradually notice changes in your appearance, but you'll be healthier, and happier.

So why not register for the 2011 City to Surf right now, and get your training and healthy eating underway. Once you get started, you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.
