Summer Running Season

The summer running season is upon us. Some of us may be training for 5ks, 10ks, half-marathons, or even a marathon. Things to keep in mind while training for one of these races: 1) Make sure you are consuming enough calories to maintain your training plan. The diet of a 5k runner looks much different than someone training for a marathon. If you aren’t sure what to eat, there are lots of books and running forums to help you out. 2) Make sure you pay attention to your mileage. If you just run without knowing what you have done, you won’t be able to note improvements. 3) PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR BODY! Some days you may need to take a day off. Listen to your body, it will give you the right advice on how to train. Enjoy your training and good luck with your PRs.
