]]> At the age of 45, TODAY morning show host Sheinelle Jones is proof that age isn’t a factor when it comes to getting into the form of your life. As she trains for her first-ever full marathon, Sheinelle has revealed exactly how she is preparing to tackle this momentous challenge.

When You Don’t Have Time, Make Time

Sheinelle explained that while she doesn’t have long to go until her marathon, she made sure to allocate enough time each day to physical fitness, making sure to immerse herself entirely in her regimen during each session. “When I go out for a run and when I’m training, that’s me time,” Sheinelle explained.

Swimming And Cross-Training

While running is of course key to marathon training, Sheinelle has also found swimming in cold water to be highly beneficial as a holistic workout. “I read all about the benefits of cold plunging. I don’t know if it really works, but I think it does. I’m not as sore as I thought I would be,” she revealed.

Remember The Reward

While training for a marathon is a long and grueling process, Sheinelle makes sure to remind herself of the benefits of what she is doing in order to keep herself motivated. “Training for a marathon is rewarding along the way,” she explained, admitting that “Some days I don’t feel like going for a run, but I never regret it when it’s over.”

]]> Are you ready to take on the challenge of running a marathon? Don’t worry, you don’t need to be an experienced runner to complete this incredible feat. With the right training and preparation, anyone can train for and finish a marathon. Here are some tips for beginners looking to take on the ultimate running challenge.

Start Slow

Don’t try to run a full marathon right away. Start with a 5k, 10k or half-marathon race and work your way up gradually.

Get Proper Gear

Invest in a good pair of running shoes and comfortable workout clothes. This will help you stay motivated and prevent injuries.

Create a Training Plan

Find a training plan that works for you and stick to it. There are many free plans available online, or you can hire a running coach to create a personalized plan.

Focus on Strength Training

Incorporate strength training into your workout routine to build endurance, prevent injuries, and improve overall performance.

Cross Train

Mix up your workouts with other forms of exercise like swimming, cycling, or yoga to prevent burnout and boredom.

Fuel Your Body

Eating a healthy and balanced diet is crucial for marathon training. Focus on getting enough protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates to fuel your body.

Hydrate

Stay hydrated before, during, and after your runs. Dehydration can lead to cramps, fatigue, and other issues that can derail your training.

Rest

Rest days are just as important as training days. Allow your body to recover and avoid overtraining.

]]> Preparing for a marathon is no easy task and preparing for your first marathon can be both exhilarating and scary. If you’re new to marathon running, check out these tips to help you prepare.

Prioritize Sleep

You might be concerned about the sleep you’re getting the night before the race, but what many people don’t realize is that it takes two nights for sleep to catch up with you. This means that you should really prioritize getting enough sleep two nights before the marathon. This will ensure that you are properly rested and energized for the big day.

No New Shoes

It might be tempting to get a new pair of shoes for your first marathon (similar to a “first day of school outfit”), but resist the urge! New shoes take time to break in, and you never know how you’ll feel running in them after you try them out. A marathon is no time to test out any new gear, trust us.

Hydration

Staying hydrated during a marathon isn’t just about what you drink the day of, or during. Hydration begins the entire week before the race. Make sure that you are drinking (and properly absorbing) water at least three to four days before the marathon. This will help with cramps, fatigue, and muscle soreness.

]]> Whether you’re an avid runner or a total beginner, setting the goal of running a marathon is certainly noble, and will probably have a number of positive benefits for you such as giving you a sense of accomplishment, improving your fitness, and boosting your confidence. But it’s also a massive undertaking that shouldn’t be taken lightly. So here are some things we’d recommend knowing before you sign up for your first marathon.

Plan for the Unknown

It doesn’t matter how perfectly you plan your training; it’s pretty much guaranteed that something will happen to interrupt it. Whether it’s weather, illness, or mood, be prepared to have to rethink your training plan at least once.

Go Slow

In order to protect your body, it’s absolutely critical that you take your sweet time increasing your mileage, ideally never increasing by more than 10 percent in a week. Generally, plan about 25 weeks to train. Beyond that, it’s also important to keep your pace slow, as this is the only way to sustain running for 26.2 dang miles.

Don’t Just Run

You might be running to get yourself into shape, but the truth is that to be a good runner, you need to get yourself into shape to run. Strength training can help support your running habit without injuring you.
