Marathon running – 10 lessons which I learned, usually, the hard way ! 🙂
‘1. On getting started, don’t try it on your own.
‘2. On the importance of food
‘3. About strength training.
‘4. Your ambitions, and how to keep them at a realistic level.
‘5. Injuries are a fact of life, when you run marathons. Have patience, and look for professional/medical help!
‘6. Don’t start too fast. If you go out too fast, regret it you will!
‘7. The benefits of cross-training.
‘8. All about mental strength, this is often overlooked.
‘9. Long runs are fun, but speed work is where the magic happens!
’10. Never give up!
All questions & comments on this, more than welcome?
Kind regards,
Peter
