What are the precautions for long-distance running?

We should all do running regularly, especially many people usually choose long-distance running as a form of exercise during their fitness. However, long-distance running generally takes a long time and consumes a lot of physical energy, which is still very hard. So what should we pay attention to during long-distance running? Let's find out!

Before you start running, it is best to stretch your muscles first, especially for those who have not exercised for a long time. If you don't allow yourself to move around, it's easy to strain your tendons and veins.

When running, concentrate on your own running, don't blindly compare yourself with the runners around you, run at your own pace and don't be influenced by others. Otherwise, this will easily affect your original rhythm and even cause you to fall.

If something unexpected happens during running, such as your shoelaces coming undone. You have to decide based on the situation. If it does not affect your running, you can continue running and deal with it after you finish. If it has affected you, you must deal with it first, otherwise the consequences will be more serious.

Don't drink a lot of water before or just after a long-distance run, as drinking water at this time is very harmful to your body.

After running, don't sit down immediately because you are tired. Be sure to walk around first, and then sit down to rest after your legs have recovered a little. Otherwise, it will not only cause lactic acid accumulation, but also damage your legs.

After a run, don't take off your jacket just because you feel a little hot. Because you have just sweated a lot at this time, and if the wind blows, you will easily catch a cold.

You must adjust your breathing during running. Generally, you should breathe through your mouth and nose at the same time, breathing once every three steps or every two steps. Unstable breathing can easily damage the trachea.

During the running process, especially long-distance running, because it consumes a lot of physical energy, many people easily give up halfway. Therefore, during the running process, you must remember to give yourself some encouragement and do it within your ability. If your physical condition is not very good, you must not be too aggressive during long-distance running.
