Marathon life hacks

Each runner has his own subtleties of overcoming the marathon distance. And then there are tricks that can make the life of a distance runner easier.

Drink water from a glass correctly... When you drink water from a glass on the run, usually half of the water is poured onto your face. To avoid this, you need to squeeze the top of the glass with your hand. And leave a small hole, which, if necessary, you can even expand with your finger. And it will be convenient to drink water through this hole. It will not spill. Unfortunately, this method does not work with some soft cups.

When you rebuild point with your handwhere exactly you plan to rebuild. Like riding a bike. This will tell the runners in the back not to bump into you and not to undercut. Most often, falls on races happen precisely because of chaotic rearrangements.

Use a belt for gels and numbers... A very handy thing. Allows you to carry gels during the race and makes it possible not to fasten the number to your clothes. This is especially convenient if you put on too many things, and you understand. That it is worth taking something off. If the number was on pins attached to outerwear. Then you would not have the opportunity to throw off the excess. And so you can do it without any problems. There is only one problem - what to do with the filmed thing.

Don't pour water on your feet. Even if it's hot, you can water your head, especially the back of your head. But don't let water run into your sneakers. This can lead to blisters. And running in "squelching" sneakers is not very pleasant.

Stay in an air bag. Of course, there is no such effect as in cycling in running. But, however, all the same, especially if there is a headwind, running after someone will help save energy on overcoming the air flow. Therefore, it is important to run with pacemakers.

If it's cold before the start, then put on some kind of long-sleeved clothes over yourself, which you will not mind throwing away. Then you hit the target, and 3-5 minutes before the start, calmly remove take off the thing and just throw it over the fence. Finding such a thing is not difficult. She is probably present in every wardrobe. But you don't have to stand and freeze before the start.

Tie your laces in a double knot and tuck the risers forward. The dumbest waste of time in a race is tying loose laces. Therefore, do everything so that this problem does not arise.

Restrain yourself for the first kilometer. Run it better much slower than much faster. The first kilometer can ruin your entire race.

Distance of the certified marathon measured by GPS, it will be 200-400 meters more. This does not mean that the organizers were wrong with the markup. This means that the GPS is deviating and you were not running along the ideal trajectory. Therefore, try to think in advance, closer to which side of the road you need to run, so as not to cross it later in order to turn in the right direction. On this, you can save more than one hundred meters.

Eat gels not at the food point, but 1-2 minutes before it. To eat the gel, and then calmly take water and wash it down. Instead of trying to do it all at the same time. Therefore, study in advance where the food points are so that there are no surprises, such as a food point around the corner, which is not visible until you run close to it.

If you're running a marathon for results, talk less. During a call, your heart rate rises with the same exercise.

let's "Five" fans. Especially for children. It charges. Children are delighted with this!

Cover the nipples, and places that can rub, lubricate with Vaseline before the marathon. Any chafing can ruin the race.

For the marathon, everything is only proven. This also applies to clothing and footwear and food. Don't take risks taking a new gel or isotonic.

Go to the toilet in 30-40 minutes before the start. 10-15 minutes before the start, you simply will not have time to stand in line. Besides, as a rule, there are "secret" toilets at the races that only the locals know about. Therefore, it makes sense, if you have friends living in a given city, ask them about such toilets that the organizers do not declare about. But they are open to members and usually have no queues.
