I also aim for a balanced breakfast with complex carbs and protein. Post-run, I opt for a chocolate milk and a handful of nuts for a quick carb-protein fix.
What a wonderful tribute to an incredible athlete.
I'm with you on that. Correcting my form has helped me feel more efficient and reduced my shin splint issues. It's not a drastic change, but it's a noticeable improvement. It's one of those things that adds up over time, especially on longer runs.
I use both, but for different reasons. Online for advice, local for motivation.
Totally agree! The energy of the crowd can give you an extra boost when you need it most.
I'm in a similar boat! I've found that swapping one easy run per week with a speed workout helps. Try doing 4-6 x 800m at a fast pace with 400m active recovery in between. It's a great way to fit in speed work without adding extra miles. Also, consider reducing the length of your strength training sessions to make room for speed work.
