FITNESS HEART RATE AWARENESS On The Run A s a long time runner and athlete, I thought I had awareness of my body. I knew that running a short distance in snow boots caused ankle pain, a lack of sleep caused heavy legs during a run, and a lack of electrolytes caused a headache. After a training cycle last fall left me fatigued, injured and far short of my running goals, I decided to try the Maffetone Method (MAF).
