On my ten mile run tonight, I really focused on my positive affirmations to make it through the workout. Sometimes, I need to tell my legs that they can do it, or repeat ‘You’re strong and fast and making it to the next mile’ or look to my watch and look to my legs and say ‘ You have thirty seconds to make it to this landmark’. Having an affirmation or quote to think about, or even a prayer, can help your running incredibly.
