Vermont marathon features swell views, summer sun & Leg Cramps

Vermont marathon features swell views, summer sun debut

Why is it that we tend to cramp up more near the end of a marathon, rather than earlier on.

The way I see it, is that you're likely to get a calf strain at any point in the race where you start to increase your workload.

Leg cramps, however, in marathon events tend to happen in the last quarter of the race on account of fatigue.

If this has been happening to you time and time again, it's time to change the pattern, learn why this is happening and organize a plan to prevent them from occuring.
