I Spent almost $0 on This Run Strategy—And I Ran My Fastest Marathon

I finally realized small tweaks, like a race predictor test, proper taper, sauna and sleep could make a big impact on race day.

I share how simple tests, proper tapering, and everyday habits boost my running performance without drastic changes. By focusing on easy-to-implement tools—like short sauna sessions, specific race predictors, and a solid sleep routine—I’ve learned how small adjustments can lead to a smoother race day and better results, all while avoiding guesswork and burnout.

1. A race predictor test helps you gauge your real fitness and plan your pacing.
2. The right taper strategy keeps you fresh without losing key fitness gains.
3. Proper sleep, heat exposure, and targeted strength work add small edges that add up big.
