Coaches share instant strategies to help you bring the joy back to your miles.
Except, you’re a runner and this sport tends to pull you through tough times, even when the run itself feels tough. To help turn your mindset around and refocus on finding strength and power on the road, we spoke with coaches to get their best strategies for getting back on track and enjoying the rhythm of the run again.For many, running relieves stress, but that’s often an after-effect.
Also, finding a calm, quiet route that connects you to nature could lead to a less stressed mindset, Lamar says. She urges urban runners to get out of the city center, and find a park that’s more relaxed. “Spending time in a place that’s special can help you get in a run without feeling like you have to cram it in, while also dealing with stress.”
If that doesn’t seem to work or you’re just feeling too tense to get moving, take a rest day. Don’t feel guilty if that’s the best choice for you., certified personal trainer and owner of Holly Roser Fitness in San Francisco, says it’s a good idea to check your heart rate if you’re feeling extra tense. If your resting heart rate reads over 100, head out for a walk instead. The fresh air might help you wind down and make you feel more ready to run after that stroll.
