How to get Better at Running:

step 1: RUN

[allbookedupp]

Preparing for a Distance Run

There are a couple habits I always make sure I do before I go on a distance run. When you are prepared you are less stressed to begin running and you will thank yourself during your run that you did prepare. 

1. DRINK WATER 

I know it seems rather obvious but actually remembering to drink water is a challenge! If you are going on a run in the morning make sure you drink plenty of water the day/night before. If you plan on running at night carry a water bottle around with you all day and try to refill it at least 4 times. It doesn't have to be a super cute fancy water bottle a cheap plastic one will work fine. Just make sure you carry one as a reminder to drink water! Hydration is key!!

2. LAY OUT YOUR OUTFIT 

Although this seems like a rather superficial step that would have no benefit it actually helps! How? If you are someone who runs on a schedule like me you can quickly get changed and go. There is no scrummaging around looking for socks, sports bra, headphones, etc.. 

3. BE POSTIVE 

Distance runs take just as much mentally as they do physically. Dreading a run, complaining, and a negative attitude toward it will make your run seem much harder than it should be. Likewise if you get excited, are positive, and believe in yourself will make the run feel like so rewarding rather than feeling like a punishment!

Sometimes the best workout is putting on your favorite songs and dancing around in your room

Experts recommend getting at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise each week for improved health. It is easy to count minutes, but how do you determine your intensity? Using the rate of perceived exertion scale or the simple talk-test will help ensure you reach moderate intensity without the need for high tech gadgets.

Work out longing...

 www.diabetesiinsider.tumblr.com

I recently had unexpected minor foot surgery so couldn’t tread on my wounded foot let alone bike or swim for a few weeks.  This looked like a vacation from my workout routine.  The inactivity was nearly maddening.  Who would have thought I’d miss it so much, that it had become such a big part of my routine?  

To get past this, I partially filled two gallon jugs with water to use as hand weights to at least sit and work my arms, shoulders, and stomach muscles. This worked for me as a stop gap for the time being but was not a replacement for my regular biking and swimming.  

My point is to keep up the good work, whatever work out you do.  If circumstances arise where you can’t do your regular workout, figure out something else to do - some other way to work your muscles and use up blood sugars.  Anybody remember isometrics?

When I’m not marking the days on my calendar until I can get back in the water, I’m sewing beer themed aprons for my online shop - www.etsy.com/shop/topdrawerthreads .  Or I’m busily crocheting striped scarves from upcycled yarn for my other shop - www.etsy.com/shop/topdraweryarns .

My daughter’s have an online shop - www.etsy.com/shop/yesdesigns - where they hand make and sell stretch velvet leggings in sizes 2X to x small.  

My older daughter has an online shop - www.etsy.com/shop/wildwovenwomen - where she knits upcycled yarns into brightly colored striped afghans.
