Barefoot running? More like barefoot begging to get hurt. I mean, come on, our roads are a mess. You're gonna step on glass or a rusty nail and be out for weeks. Not worth the risk, if you ask me. Stick to your shoes, folks.
Foam rolling's not a magic bullet, but it's helped me with recovery. I focus on my IT band, calves, and quads. It's not about rolling around on the floor for hours, just 10-15 minutes after a hard run or long run. It's not a replacement for stretching, but it's a nice addition. Worth trying, but don't expect miracles.
I'm a fuel-as-you-go kinda guy, works better for me.
Some amazing shots in this essay. As a runner, I'm biased towards the athletics pics, but the gymnastics and cycling ones are insane too. Can't wait for the next Olympics!
Who cares about Britain? I wanna know what kinda splits she was running. Anyone got the details?
Yeah dude, Lyles almost got robbed! That was way too close for comfort.
Who needs exercises to test their fitness level? Just go for a 5K run and see how you feel. If you're not dying, you're good. If you're dying, you're not. Simple.
Yeah, training them to heel is key. I've seen people running with their dogs and it's like they're getting dragged behind. Not a good look. Get that discipline in and you'll be cruising with your furry buddy in no time.
