21 Secrets Runners Won’t Tell You by BuzzFeed

This post by BuzzFeed made me laugh out loud because 99% of them applied to me while training for the Scotiabank Half Marathon.

ESPECIALLY:

3. Shoes really DO matter.

4. You lose half your weekend to long runs.

5. Running is boring as hell.
You can have new music on your phone, a fun new route and fresh workout clothes, but still, sometimes…you just can’t wait for it to be over.

7. And even if you’ve run long distances (10+ miles), you’ll still sometimes struggle through a 3-miler.

13. It’s easier than you think to get dehydrated.
That gross, flu-like, nauseated, headache-y feeling you get after a long run in the sun? Yep, you’re dehydrated, because you didn’t drink 30,000,000 gallons of water prior.

 

Which ones apply to you?
