As the saying goes. That includes running. Outside the obvious, when you are home your not running. I like to think that when I am home that means I am all caught up on my running.
Yesterday, when I was out for my 18 mile training run, I was starting to feel a little bogged down and I had an inspiration. I started going through running cadences I used while in the Marine Corps. I shared one of them in a previous post but the point is what do you do when you start to hit the wall.
Do you have a place to go, a home so to speak in your mind where you can ease into a rhythm. You have probably heard about tips for public speaking where you touch your index finger to your thumb. Generally speaking its about distraction.
I encourage you to find a place to go when you are on your long runs. I often recall my Marine Corps Training or a previous marathon training period, these are things that help me push through the pain.
Give it a try and share your ideas.
