Sand Running
[IF YOU ARE FEELING PAIN IN KNEES OR HIPS DO NOT DO SAND RUNNING]
Sand running falls under teqnique, but also is a good strength builder. Running in sand can make you very tired. When doing
fast repeats 5 x 100 meter repeats will make for a good end to a workout. If you are running at a normal pace a good 800 meter
stretch of sand during your run can be a great help. It is very important to getting your foot out of the sand quickly. Shorten your stride and don't
let your foot fully sink into the sand.

inspirations
Perhaps the most intriguing, yet at the same time most tragic aspect of distance running is racing strategies and tactics or the lack of them. A slight hesitance, a single step to the inside, a few seconds miscalculation of the right pace of the timing of the final kick, and any other seemingly minor error, may throw away months and years of careful preparation and sacrifice. The race is not always to either the swift or the strong, but to the clever, the skillful, and the constantly wary.
