Running
Here are some things to consider doing. Some items may not be applicable to you.
Well before running:
- See a doctor to determine advisability of running. You can also check these supplements and ask your doctor if you can take them. Do you ever wish there was one thing that could treat all of your symptoms, whether it’s improving thyroid function or reducing memory loss? Lucky for us, the ancient Ayurvedic herb Ashwagandha is extremely beneficial for many parts of our body like the thyroid, brain, immune system and so much more. The herb is available as a supplement, in capsule or extract form, make sure to check out the best amazon ashwagandha at amazon.com. Make yourself a drink using protein powder in oats adds flavor and nutrition to increase your protein intake and boost your energy for your run.
- A massage gun is a high-intensity device that can aid in muscle recovery. While massage guns are designed for anyone’s use, they are most popular among professional athletes and trainers. Percussive therapy is the best option for people who want quick relief for sore muscles.

Items to take:
- Key to house and/or vehicle

- Bar bells to help condition/strengthen your arm muscles to throw at a person or animal who attacks you
- Carry a stick or other item to protect you against potential attackers (people and animals) carrying a stick, etc. will signal to others that you are prepared for an attack
Right before running:
- Drink liquids
- Try to use the bathroom
- Do a light warm-up, e.g., walk briskly or run slowly
- Stretch, especially thigh, calf and abdominal muscles, e.g.:
- One at a time, while standing and keeping the upper leg parallel to the other leg, pull your heel up towards your buttocks
- While standing, lean your upper torso to the front, back and each side
- One at a time, while standing, place one foot behind you and lower the heel to the ground
- While standing, spread your legs wide apart, then one at a time, bend one knee to lower yourself towards that foot and keep the other leg straight
While running:
- For optimum aerobic exercise, maintain a pace at which you can still talk without too much trouble
- If you are attacked:
- Don’t let attackers take you to a secondary crime scene they’re more likely to kill or seriously hurt you and/or rape you if they can get you to a location of their choosing
After running:
- Continue exercising lightly for a short period
