Running In The Rain: Tips For Wet-weather Exercise | GirlsGoneSporty: "One winter spent running in the Pacific Northwest without waterproof gear was enough to teach me a lesson. It's miserable.

The Best Running Shoes For Men | Men's Health

The Best Running Shoes For Men | Men's Health: "Talk about a weight-loss program: The Guide 5 shed almost two ounces from its previous version, but didn't lose a shred of shock absorption. Tests showed that it's just as supportive as earlier models. Saucony got more with less by lowering the heel-to-toe drop (which testers say helped them run on their forefeet); and using lighter rubber on the outsole. Our only complaint: Shoelaces that are too long. "

Tips for Running an Ultramarathon from a Local World Record Holder | Fitness | Washingtonian: "As Neal Gorman toed the line at the Grindstone 100, he looked over at one opponent in particular. He was a former Division I college track star and had run a 2:20 marathon, something Gorman couldn’t do. But Gorman also knew that this race was four times as long as a marathon, and therefore a different competition entirely. Gorman took second, well ahead of his former-DI competition."

4 Running Tips to Improve Your 10K Time - Men's Fitness

4 Running Tips to Improve Your 10K Time - Men's Fitness: "Training for a 10K race is difficult. It isn’t a sprint, so running shorter distances on a track isn’t as crucial, but it’s not even a half-marathon either—so sustained long distance runs aren’t as beneficial. And your pace needs to be fast, but not too fast, or your body will be gassed long before you cross the finish line. With correct training, nutrition, and a proper mindset, you can get faster. It’s just a matter of knowing how."
