If
ever you have wanted to know the secrets to getting enough
sleep the night before your marathon to leave you in peak condition,
then this is one of the most important emails you will ever read:
If
you are like most people then you will most likely be thinking about
your race as you fall asleep the night before the big day.
This
is normal.
However
if you toss and turn all night and get worried that you can't
get to sleep then you will wake up feeling tired and will not be giving
yourself the best chance of reaching your full potential in your race.
You
should realize here that so long as your body is not tossing and
turning all night, that you are getting all the rest you really need.
Even if you are wide awake, as long as your body is rested then it is
equivalent to getting say 90% of the real rest that you could be
getting if you were fully asleep.
To
relax your body further you can just become conscious of allowing
your body to relax and to consciously allow your body to sink into the
mattress. Next, consciously turn your thoughts off and just become
aware of your breathing. Simply doing this exercise will allow you to
be fully rested in preparation for your marathon.
The
worst thing you can do the night before your marathon is to
continuously worry about your race and to toss and turn all night.
Instead, follow the above exercise and you will be fine.
