Sleep is a crucial ingredient in the recipe to running success. It doesn't matter how fine tuned the rest of our running regime is including weekly distance, the type of workouts we do, our nutrition, or what gear we have. If our sleep isn't right, we'll never be able to reach our full potential.
Being someone who has suffered from mild insomnia for many years, with occasional bouts of severe insomnia, I know what it's like to not have great sleep and the consequences this can have in day to day life. When I experience severe bouts of insomnia in particular, I always notice that - in addition to lots of other problems - my running training performance goes downhill pretty fast.
Whilst I'm certainly no medical professional, sleep scientist or sleep psychologist, the topic of sleep interests me a lot and I've racked up quite a bit of knowledge in the topic of sleep through sheer personal interest.
In this video, I'll share some top tips for getting better sleep so that you can improve your running and have better training and better races.
Thanks for watching and happy running! Or, should I say happy sleeping?
