December running advice: Knowledge. - Probably the most important of my own principles are always to continue to gather knowledge of how the body (and mind :-) responds to training. By knowing in detail how you respond to for ex. overtraining or your pre-injury signals you can become able to detect a beginning injury long before it develops. And have knowledge of how you best steer clear of it in time. - actually a big part of the "everyday of world run" is to pick up the many signals of the body responses and take preventive measures (example: reduce km, change running speed, run on other surface, emphasise stretches, get new shoes, alter running style, sleep patterns, change of food, ... ) - up to 5-10 days before an injury would appear. Well, that was the advices I could think of this month. Hope you enjoyed :-) |
