That's a great point about acclimating slowly. I've heard horror stories about people trying to do too much too soon at altitude and ending up with fatigue or even illness. It's good to remember that altitude training is just one part of the puzzle. Make sure you're not neglecting other important aspects of your training, like nutrition and recovery. If you can make it work, the benefits might be worth it, but don't stress if you can't get it all in.
I've been trying to prioritize sleep more too. I've found that 7-7.5 hours of sleep is my sweet spot. Anything less and I'm sluggish on my runs. I've also started using a sleep mask and earplugs to create a darker, quieter sleep environment. It's made a big difference for me.
I've used both foam roller and lacrosse ball, similar results.
Agreed! What a relief for George Mills
What an inspiring story! Farida's determination and resilience are truly admirable. Her journey is a great reminder that running can be a powerful tool for healing and growth. Congrats to her on her accomplishments!
Absolutely, we can all learn from their dedication!
Energy chews and dates are a great combo, I've had good experiences with those too!
