Training for Runs can be difficult at the best of times. But the best thing for you to do is follow a few steps and this will help to improve your times whether you are a beginner or an advanced athlete.1. Keep all of your running varied. This means to do sprints once or twice a week, long distance at the weekend and steady 30 minute runs on the other 2 or 3 days. If it is possible to fit in a day that you run on hills all the better as this will help to increase the running muscles on your legs bigtime and it really helps you in 10k races.
2.Make sure to be eating all of the right foods. Fruit and Nuts are a must but so is drinking plenty of water, but not too much and taking Vitamin C. Also surprisingly perhaps, Lucozade sport before a long race can be great for your stamina but I would advise not to drink it fast as this can have the opposite effect on your stomach altogether.3. Make sure to be wearing the right shoes, whatever about your singlet and shorts to be wearing running shoes that do most of the work for you is very important. Purchase a pair of Asics trainers at a price you can afford but do not be afraid to go to the higher end of the market. This will give you an advantage over some of the runners at least.
4. Buy a watch or timepiece to time your runs. There are some excellent models available now and these come at a fairly reasonable price for all they do. You can even determine what speed per mile you are doing. The Garmin Forerunner is a popular choice with runners today.
