What to eat before a 5K or 10KStand straight with your feet hip-width apart. Take the elastic in both hands. Hold one arm behind your lower back and the other up and over your head so that the band runs parallel with your spine. Straighten your top arm, tightening the band. Relax. Do this 12 times and then swap arms.
Do 3 sets of 12 repetitions per arm. Rest for 30 seconds between sets.
