Training Tips Tuesday

If you are reading this expecting some revolutionary new training tips, you’ve come to the wrong place. I’m no expert but I do a TON of research online. From blogs to media websites, if its about marathon training, running or CrossFit, I’ve probably read it. In fact, I am going to compile a list of all my favorites and post that soon.

Drink So Much Water: I drink about 12 oz of water an hour while I’m at my desk. Keep drinking all night long, too.

When Sharing The Street With Cars: Run AGAINST traffic so that they can see you, you can see them. Its also not super safe to wear headphones, but I keep mine on a low volume. I definitely WON’T be needing them on 4.21.14.

Write Things Down: Its important to keep track of how far you are going, what pace you could hold, and how you felt doing it. You’ll be able to track progress, but also make note of important things like “I can run 10 miles at 9:00 min mile pace, but if I do 11 or 12 miles, I have to drop my pace.”

You Are What You Eat: Don’t eat pizza the night before a long training run. Make good choices.

When In Doubt, Wear Neon Pink Pants:

Pink!
