Well, the tips for episode 03 are paid out, and I am back again, dear Steemians, picking your brains for more clarity!
As I mentioned a couple posts ago, I have just signed up to run my first marathon, here in Niigata City.
Last night in a somewhat inebriated chat with a friend from the states (all-you-can-drink set menus are good for aspiring marathon runners, right?) who has run the Chicago marathon, I received some great advice. He advised me about shoes, long run/short run alternation, stride patterns and...
nipple chafing.
One of the more memorable bits being...nipple chafing.
I also received some good advice from Facebook friends.
Now, I turn to you, dear Steemian. Help me to run more like a graceful swan with fox feet, and less like a pile of heavy scrap metal crashing into the road with each jarringly painful stride.
Looking for any helpful advice from knowledgeable sources.
Fire away!
