[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you're doing a race, why the long runs? Do HIIT training along with running on incline/hills. Much more effective and efficient for cardio health. Get the same work out in half the time or less.[/quote] Some people just enjoy running! I almost never race, but find that I feel better overall when I'm regularly doing longer distances--& it keeps me in shape for the times when I do decide to sign up for an event. OP, I don't really bother with water/food unless I'm doing 15+ miles (& even then I try to do it sparingly--I'd rather have to deal with a dry mouth than a full bladder...). They look silly, but I've actually found that hydration vests aren't so bad since you don't have to carry anything in your hands & they have extra pockets for phone/keys. If you really want to try eating during runs, try to incorporate it gradually & stick to foods that are less likely to irritate your stomach. [/quote]
