There are only a few days left before runners the sidewalks of Oost -Londen in the Hackney Half Marathon banging.
The most visited half marathon of the capital will take place around Hackney Streets on Sunday 18 May.
But if you are looking to perfect the walk -in to the distance or get yourself in top form, here are some relatively 11th hour tips for a great day.
Top tips when training for the Hackney half
Do not make any trouble with the long term in the days before
You don’t want to run too far, too far behind the start date, so you should have strived for your longest run about three weeks earlier.
Do it easier on the runs this week, because you don’t want to injure yourself in the days before.
Participating in a half marathon is a good idea

The best part of Marathon training can be the few weeks where you have reached your peak distance and then start tapering to prevent you from being too tired on racing day.
Strive for the last two weeks to be a lesser overall mileage than your peak. It is also satisfactory when 10 km feels like a short run.

The half marathon distance is a bit too far for a body to put on its own fuel and you must accept food and energy stocks when you go around.
It is important to find something that works for you, whether it is Satsumas, Jelly Babies or one of the more professional -looking gels or bars on the market. Practicing refueling while training is important to acclimatize your body and to reduce the risk of cramps.
Make sure you have put a few training runs in your shoes
Wearing shoes for the first time on racing day is a no-no. You want to make sure your shoes fit well and you don’t want to blister.
It is also a good idea to know which shorts and top you will have to minimize the opportunities of these barns. Wearing Vaseline in sensitive areas is a proven method.
Yoga is a good idea to include in your training

You have clocked hundreds of kilometers on this point, so give your joints some R&R in a yoga class. Stretching and strengthening can help recovery and reduce the risk of injury.
