Marathon Joggling tips
These are all good tips but they seem pretty obvious. Here are some additional tips that I’ve found helpful.
11. Avoid wearing cotton - it causes chafing and is really heavy when you sweat.
12. Don’t joggle with balls that bounce.
13. Don’t overeat - marathon training makes you hungry & you’ll tend to eat more than you need.
14. Some training days will be bad - Don’t sweat it.
15. If you miss a training session forgive yourself and move on. Don’t kill yourself to make up the miles.
16. Juggling makes a good cross training activity.
