Keeping a Training Log Many fitness enthusiasts keep training logs, and athletes often have daily training records going back 10 years or more. These records allow them to see the big picture, the patterns that emerge only over time. If you decide to keep a training log, you may find it a hassle at first, but if you keep detailed notes on such things as diet and sleep patterns, how much time you spent warming up and stretching, and when, where and how far you ran, it will allow you to see a new, healthier pattern starting to form in your life.

Running can teach you a lot about who you are. It can show you your limitations and give you the opportunity to move past them. If you keep raising the bar, running can give you the tremendous feeling that bars were made to be raised. Running takes commitment, determination, desire, hard work and a sense of self-worth.

If you stand up and artificially flatten your feet, you’ll notice that your knees start pointing inward. If you run that way, your knees will track poorly and joint problems could develop.

If you suffer from excess supination—a rare condition—you’ll tend to walk on the outside edges of your feet. The opposite of pronation is supination, which occurs when the foot’s arch fails to flatten out enough during weight bearing.
