A few rules to help you run better:

Take a break from everyday stress and enjoy exercise in the fresh air and beautiful natural surroundings.
Achieve your goal with moderation! Training is based on performance level, age and running distance, increase the kilometers slowly!
Pay attention to the correct running technique and the ideal breathing rhythm!
Running should be fun! Monotony is the beginning of the end. Therefore, constantly vary the distance, distance and intensity.
Light stretching before training, but especially after running, makes the muscles more supple and less susceptible to injury.
Cool down - easy running. Exercise must always be followed by recovery. The more strenuous, the longer.
Nutrition tip: about 2 hours before running no solid food, but plenty of fluids (fresh spring water) before and during the run. After running, replenish your carbohydrate stores with pasta, potatoes, cereals, rice, etc.
Clothing should wick away sweat and be breathable. The right running shoe must provide cushioning, stabilization and correct rolling behaviour in addition to an optimal fit (still a finger's width of space at the front) and must be breathable.
Please follow the local instructions for the protection of nature.
