.
The University of Maryland once did such a study: they asked some athletes not to run for 10 days, then scanned their brains, and found that the amount of blood flowing to the hippocampus decreased, which is closely related to the ability of learning and memory, and also closely related to the occurrence of Alzheimer’s disease
.
In this extremely absurd super marathon of 4800km for 64 consecutive days, the volume of gray matter of runners decreased by 6%, The brain atrophy of the ordinary elderly is only 0.2% every year
.
Three years later, by scanning the brain, we found that the gray area of the brain that runs every week is more developed, which is related to the speed of processing information

In regular runners, the increase of endorphin activity level in the brain makes runners feel happy, but it is not only endorphins that have the effect of relieving pain and refreshing

.
The most obvious point is that the coordination activity of the brain region of runners increases, which is mainly in the front of the brain, responsible for executive function and working memory
