Maintain a Training Log
Set your goals and then document your daily mileage, run distance, and how you feel. Having a realistic goal and maintaining a record of your progress makes the journey much easier.
Find a group
Training with a group of focused, like-minded people will help you stay motivated and push yourself for a better performance. You could also share your training log with your group to evaluate your performance.
Incorporate stretching routines
Stretching keeps the muscles in the body flexible and reduces chances of injuries. Ensure you stretch your muscles before and after your training for best results.
Focus on cross training
Include activities like swimming, cycling, or rowing at a moderate intensity for aerobic fitness. Also, focus on strength training and core workouts as they go hand in hand with running.
Increase Weekly Mileage
Focus on gradually increasing your mileage without risking any injury. It is advisable to increase your mileage by no more than 10% of your mileage in the previous week.
Include rest days
Allow at least one or two days per week for rest and recovery. This will help your muscles recover and thus let you train harder.
Watch your diet
The more you train, the more is your energy requirement per day. Ensure your diet includes vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, as well as lean protein sources, good sources of healthy fats, and of course, foods packed with carbohydrates. Incorporate glucose supplements to help you in your endeavor
