Running tip:  keep arms bent at 90 degrees, hands loose and comfortable. Keep elbows close to your body with minimal swinging/pumping to reduce resistance and make you more efficient. Hydrate before and after (during if you can!) and get a good stretch in after. Don't forget your strength training this week!
