Posture and body position

Foot landing
Try to land on the middle of the foot or on the forefoot, instead of landing on the heel. This can help reduce shock and stress on your joints.
Training programs for beginners
A good training program can help you get into running and improve your fitness gradually.
Start slowly
Start with short runs and gradually increase your distance and intensity. Listen to your body and avoid overloading yourself.
Include walking breaks
Alternate between running and walking at the start. This can help you build stamina without overexerting yourself.
Diet and hydration
In order to perform at your best while running, it is important to have the right diet and stay hydrated.
Before the race
Eat a light meal that is rich in carbohydrates about 1-2 hours before your run. Avoid heavy or fatty foods that can strain the stomach.
During the race
Drink water regularly, especially on hot days or during long runs. Bring a small water bottle or plan your route so you can access water along the way.
After the race
Eat a meal that contains both protein and carbohydrates within 30 minutes of your run. This helps with muscle repair and replenishment of energy stores.
