You are what you eat - Dolla - 11-11-2004 Quote:Originally posted by tokoloshie :haha: :haha: Cubbie, please gimme that tips. I need all the help I can. I am quite nervous about this marathon Here is my menu for today Brekkie - mango (a green one ) and a banana, some water and a decaff skinny latte Snacks - seeds, I am tweeting already! Lunch - I didn't bring anything in today, so it is probably going to be some oats Dinner - NO idea. I have a sick baby in bed so I will probably run around and forget to eat Have a super day all! You are what you eat - tokoloshie - 11-11-2004 Quote:Originally posted by Dolla Here some tips...:thumbs: Training: not rocket science, but trickier than you think Mix running and walking Few people can run a full mile the first time out the door, so don’t even try. You’ll get discouraged and quit. Instead, mix running and walking. Run for 30 seconds, walk for 90 seconds, and repeat this nine more times for a total of 20 minutes. When you can comfortably run/walk for 20 minutes four times a week with this 30/90-second pattern, change your run/walk ratio to 45/75 and repeat the four-times-a-week pattern. Next comes 60/60, then 75/45, then 90/30. Eventually you’ll be running for several minutes at a time between walking breaks, and then – hallelujah! – you’ll be able to run for 20 minutes without stopping. More about the run-walk technique. Take the ‘talk test’ Always run at a relaxed and comfortable pace. This isn’t the Olympics – it’s a lifelong fitness quest. To check your effort level, start a conversation with your training partner. You should be able to speak without gasping or feeling out of breath. If you can’t, then slow down. Go farther, not harder Once you reach the magic 20-minute mark, build up to 30 minutes (then 40, 50 and 60). Don’t make the mistake of trying to get faster – don’t try to run your 20-minute course in 19 minutes. Increasing endurance is your first priority. Be a tortoise, not a hare We don’t have to retell the old children’s story here. Running works just like the tortoise-and-hare race. It rewards the patient (with weight loss, steady progress, less stress, more energy and a host of health benefits) and penalizes the overeager (with injuries, burnout and the like). This isn’t a sport for sprinters. Be slow, not sorry. Don’t compare yourself with anyone else Check out the apostrophe in RUNNER’S WORLD. There must be a billion runners out there, so we could certainly call this magazine RUNNERS’ WORLD. But we don’t, and this is because we realise that there’s only one runner who really counts – you. So don’t feel bad if you see someone who’s faster, thinner or smoother-striding. Running is your activity – make it work for you, and don’t worry about anyone else. |
