Hey runners! Ready to level up your marathon training? Here's a quick tutorial to help you get started with interval training. Warm up with a light jog for 10 minutes to get those muscles ready. After that, sprint for 1 minute at a pace you can't maintain for long. Follow this with a 2-minute brisk walk or slow jog to recover. Repeat this cycle 6-8 times. Cool down with another 10-minute jog to bring your heart rate back to normal. Interval training boosts speed and endurance, making those long distances feel a bit easier. Lace up and give it a try! 🏃‍♂️💪

Yesterday evening's run was pure magic! The sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky with breathtaking hues of orange and pink. Felt the cool breeze on my face, each step more exhilarating than the last. Pushed my limits and embraced the moment. Grateful for the ability to run and the community that motivates me every day.

Morning runs are my sacred ritual, a quiet space before the world wakes up. Lacing up at dawn, feeling the crisp air, and hearing my footsteps on the pavement set the tone for the day. It's where I find clarity, set intentions, and reconnect with my goals. How do you embrace the early hours?
