Runners love to hate them, but truth is they are the most beneficial workout to add to your repertoire.
After 4 months of running our 6.2 mile hill course, the grueling 500 plus feet of elevation had our legs stronger than ever. The result? Our entire group of regular ‘Selden Hill Warriors’ are PRing machines. The Wednesday night hill ritual has conditioned every runner’s leg muscles, tendons, and joints to go the distance—and get there fast.

‘Run the mile you are in.’ – Runner’s World Editor-in-Chief David Willey
Runner’s World posted this quote from their Facebook page today, and it made me reflect on my race day strategy. 26.2 miles is a long way to go and each mile presents its own unique challenges. Staying focused on the current situation is really the only way to run any race—a marathon just provides a little too much time for a wandering mind. I’ll keep this quote in my mind on Sunday…
So here we are. It’s finally marathon week. The training is done and now all that’s left to do is truly, ‘trust the training’ and carefully navigate each day this week.
We have been focused and consistent while training for the Long Island Marathon and this is definitely fueling our confidence as we head into race day. Now, as we taper, our focus shifts from logging miles to meticulous nutrition and abundant rest.
Drinking pure water keeps your body and mind running smooth. All bodily functions require water to perform, and even slight dehydration can have adverse effects on your day. Before fatigue and headaches set in, try these tips for drinking more water and give your body the hydration it craves.
I don’t really know of anyone who actually looks forward to this day, but the 3 hour (or 18-20 mile run) is obviously an integral piece of marathon training. We built up to one of these runs back in February, then pulled back on our mileage to let our bodies recover in preparation for another peak. Now, it’s time to recover again in preparation for race day.
