Run within yourself and for yourself first.</li> <li>Even a bad run is better then no run at all</li> <li>If you normally run with music try skipping it and listening to your feet to hear your pace and your gait</li> <li>Don’t be discouraged if you don’t experience weight loss immediately</li> <li>Start a running blog, to see your progress and set goals</li> <li>Hydrate. Make it a habit to drink water throughout the day</li> <li>On long runs eat something every hour—whether you feel like it or not</li> <li>During longer runs if you don’t like to carry water take some cash in your pocket pouch or a shoe wallet. Run a route where there’s a corner store that you can use as a pit stop to pick up your water and maybe use the bathroom</li> <li>To aid recovery the most crucial time to eat and drink is in the hour immediately after you run</li> <li>Use Vaseline or BodyGlide wherever things rub.

Try to run lightly to minimize impact that could lead to injury</li> <li>When running don’t forget the bug spray, sunscreen and a hat- BIG TIME!</li> <li>Neosporin (or another antibiotic cream) is good for chafed areas</li> <li>Make sure you cut your toenails short enough so they don’t jam into your Shoes</li> <li>Be careful about running on paths that force you to run consistently on a slant. It’s hard on the hips knees</li> <li>Don’t stretch before a run. Warm up by walking briskly or jogging slowly for several minutes</li> <li>Do not ice for more than 20 minutes at a time</li> <li>For beginners, set mini goals to keep you motivated. (Can be minutes [run 5, walk 10], run between street lights then walk between street lights, run till the next bus stop, until you pass a car on the street)</li> <li>Do not use the hot tub after a race. It will increase inflammation and hinder healing</li> <li>Be aware of cyclists approaching you from behind and try to keep to the right. Try to pay special attention when running with music</li> <li>Run facing traffic.</li> <li>Never assume a car sees you</li> <li>Doubleknot your shoe laces so they will not come undone when you run\</li> <li>If you listen to music, put earbuds in the go inside your ear, if you are usuing the ones that sit in your ear, it will fall out</li> <li>Buy yourself some actual running shoes from an actual running store because running in junk “sneakers” will destroy your feet and your legs</li> <li>At first keep your runs short and slow to avoid injury and soreness so you do not quit.</li> <li>If you are breathing too hard slow down or walk a bit until you feel comfortable again</li> <li>Pick your route close to home (out your front door)—the more convenient it is the better chance you will have sticking with it.</li> <li>Set realistic short term and long term goals</li> <li>Remember Soreness one to two days after a run is normal (delayed onset muscle soreness).</li> <li>There’s no shame in walking</li> <li>Four laps around the local the high school track equals one mile</li> <li>Vary your training routes. This will prevent boredom and prevent your body from getting acclimated</li> <li>Push through rough spots by focusing on the sounds of your breath and feet touching the ground</li> <li>Do abdominal breathing to get rid of side cramps</li> <li>Run on trails if at all possible. It will be easier on your body and you’ll love it</li> <li>Dress as if it is 10 degrees warmer than the temperature on the thermometer</li> <li>Run early in the morning or later in evening to avoid mid-day heat</li> <li>To keep cool in hot weather soak a bandana in cold water wring it out a bit and tie it loosely around your neck</li> <li>In the winter dress in layers (coolmax or other technical clothing) and wear a headband over your running hat to cover your ears</li> </ol><p>These are SO helpful!
