2. Find a running and training partner.

Having accountability is huge! You are much more
likely to get out of bed to run in the morning if you
know you have to meet your partner at the track. Your
partner could be your spouse, sibling, good friend or
co-worker. Neither of you have to be expert runners.
Just having someone there to encourage you and
motivate you will make a world of difference.

Training Tip #1 for the Run for Mercy 5K & Family Walk

1. Eat real food not fake food.

To get your body in 5K shape, start eating real foods that come from nature--the foods God intended us to eat! Replace packaged, processed food filled with chemicals, additives and preservatives, with fresh vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts & seeds and organic meats and eggs. These real foods will have the most antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other nutrients for optimal health. They will also help boost your energy levels as you train for your 5K. For more information on real foods vs. fake foods, check out my blog post about it!
