All of us who run barefoot know that staying relaxed is critical. This ensures that our feet broadly absorb the impact, our knees stay bent, our whole body stays loose.
I wanted to share my secret to staying relaxed. Here it comes. Are you ready?
Find something to think about other than your feet, knees, elbows, left butt cheek, etc.
That's it. Keep your mind loose and your body will stay loose. Okay, so you think that's easier said than done? Agreed. So, I've come up with a few other things to occupy your mind while running. Feel free to try these, but if you happen to get hit by a car or run into a telephone pole, don't come back and write mean comments. Try these at your own risk.
1) Why does your nose run and your feet smell?
2) How do they get a deer to cross at that yellow road sign?
3) Why did God give man nipples?
4) If a man is standing in the middle of a forest speaking and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?
5) Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?
6) Why do people point to their wrist when they want to know the time? Do I point to my crotch when I want to know where the bathroom is?
7) Does fuzzy logic tickle?
8) If you're in a vehicle going the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights?
9) Megan Fox naked.
So the last one might be counter-productive. So sue me. These are free tips.
