@calebsurgers: 1. Slow down your easy runs. If you can't talk in full sentences, you're going too fast. Most of your miles should feel comfortable. 2. Run by effort, not pace. Hills, wind, and heat all change your pace. Effort stays honest. 3. Warm up before you run. Start with 5 minutes of walking or a very easy jog. Your first mile will feel a lot better. 4. Relax your hands and shoulders. Clenched fists and tight shoulders waste energy. Imagine holding a chip without crushing it. 5. Eat and hydrate before longer runs. Showing up empty makes everything feel harder than it should. You don't need to fix all five at once. Pick one and try it this week. #Fitness #runningtiktok
