Completed my first half marathon brehs. Knocked that shyt out under two hours too and placed damn near in the top 20%.
Any daily runners/joggers on here?

A few more tips.
1. I strongly recommend eating at least 2 hours before running. Initially ran on an empty stomach but recently through trial and error, eating before running has increased my distance by at least 30%. That’s insane! Oats are my breakfast of choice.
2. Do not neglect weight training. I’ve seen a huge difference with adding resistance training on my rest days. Don’t work on your legs the day before running of course.
3. The best ingredients to use as a post smoothie work out are: sea moss gel, 0% fat free yogurt, avocado, spinach, Brazil nuts, milled flax seed, blue berries, strawberries, bananas and apples. You can mix it up but these are my usual ingredients.
I’m now averaging 15 miles every run. Again, I never run consecutive days. I ALWAYS take at least one day off. Recovery days are vital, that’s why I’ve never been injured (touch wood).
Any other tips let me know. I really want to target doing a marathon this upcoming year.
