Tips for Running a Marathon

by Health & Fitness

The Reggae Marathon, Half Marathon & 10K

The famous Reggae Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K is slated for December 7, 2013, where runners and walkers from all over the world will make their way along Negril’s internationally well-known coastline.

Check the Reggae Marathon site below for details and sign up today!

http://www.reggaemarathon.com/

After you sign up for the Reggae Marathon or any other marathon at all, please get ready for it the right way.

‘Running a successful marathon consists of a number of factors, whether you are an

experienced runner or not, getting an adequate amount of training or even just choosing the right shoes.

Conquering the miles is not all physical though preparing the mind and fueling the body properly is key.

Calm the pre-race jitters and see tips for Running a Marathon in the Infographic below, allowing you to focus on what you need to do mentally, physically an nutrition-wise from a few days before the race to a few hours after you cross the finish line.’ -Source: Caloriecount.com (edited)
