How many miles you Run?

I can't seem to make myself run on the treadmill. It's outside or nothing.

I'm cutting back a bit for the next few weeks, so the runs are 3-4 miles, at 12-13 mins/mile average.

Im sidelined right now, but before my injury 2-3 weeks ago, i was running 20-25 miles per week at an 12 minute mile pace when outdoors. When im on a treadmill, its a 10minute mile pace, no incline.

Usually 3 days would be 5 mile runs, and then a long run of 8-12miles.

Five days a week, 35-40 miles per week.... outside only

2-4 miles about 4 times a week. Intervals/incline some days and straight running with no incline others. Average 10-11 minute miles.

11.5 miles this morning. I'll run 3-4 more times this week (3-6 miles depending on the day). Working my way up to 40+ per week (currently averaging 25-30).

I only run on a treadmill when there is no other choice. And then I do it reluctantly, whining the whole time.

What's your time ?
What's your speed?

Don't do dreadmills.

At the moment 5 runs per week giving me between 35 and 50 miles per week, long run is currently about 15 miles with midweek longs about 10 miles and speed sessions between 4 and 7 miles..

Generally about a 10 minute mile for most runs.

80 miles per week, 3 x10k, 3 HM and a >20 miles one

I don't belong to a gym... Fitness is free... A study I did when I was at college sorry going of track (no pun instead) was how gyms make money and what was there biggest income... Was The bloody sweet machines at the exit/entrances of the buildings anyways rant over lol

I run in the street I usually do
Monday- Fast run 2-3 miles
Wednesday- Steady pace 5-8 miles
Friday- interval training 2-3 miles

In my running route there is lots of inclines and declines and flats my aim for my fast days is for 6 min miles

But on my steady easy days I run any where from 8-10 min miles just depends how I feel

Running on a running machine and running in the streets is totally different and well in my mind if something becomes easier.. Ie running machine then clearly you'll not working out as much

I no so many people who drive to gyms to then run on a machine... My mind can't handle that lol

Get running on the streets... Never in training go for the easier option and we all do it but do t worry what others are doing compare to yourself and beat yourself

Merry Christmas by the way ❄️

Shlt, @MobyCarp ... you are way too modest... you sure as hell could give a @patrikc333 a run for his money... even if he COULD be your kid...

That way lies madness. Or, more likely, couch time. I'd rather keep running than injure myself trying to give a young guy a run for his money.

I'll admit that it was real ego boost to have a 35 year old tell me he'd looked at my back in the distance for 9 miles of the Rochester Half, and could never reel me in; but I know I can't compete with the top 35 year olds. I'm happy if I can finish ahead of everyone in my age group or older.

I run maybe 3 times week.Depending the weather there in Scotland.Been very wet and windy last 20 years.I run 6 - 9 miles each time.Average time for 6 miles is 49mins.Not bad for someone who couldn't run the length of himself in May.

I peeked to 60-65 miles per week during marathon training.
Everything outside (so no incline or speed treadmill workouts).
Pace (easy is 8:30-9:30 min/mi; tempo or threshold is 7:00-7:45 min/mi; recovery 10:00+)
Time: You are looking at about 60-90 minutes depending on workout during the week. Up to 3 hours on Saturday long runs. On occasion, I ran 3 hr 20 min on my peek long runs where I went 22 miles.

All this got me to a 3:37:59 marathon time 2 saturday's ago at RCM.


I am looking to get to 70 miles/week this next time around.


Impressive @patrikc333 @MobyCarp, you ain't no slouch too. Neither are you @MorningGhost14

5 days a week, currently 46 miles per week with runs of varying lengths from 6 miles to the mid-teens; may do 20 miles next Saturday. Most miles will be at an easy pace, which for me is between 7:45 and 8:30 per mile.

No dreadmills, lots of outdoor running. Next week I'll start doing some speed work on an indoor track. If I hate it, I can always go back to running outside.

The weekly mileage will ramp up to near 70 miles per week during marathon training. Even then, I won't be running as many miles as @patrikc333; but I don't need to compete with a guy who's 5 age groups younger than me.

LOL, I'm actually looking forward to moving up an AG next year....

OP, my weekly mileage will vary with where I am in a training cycle (my longest races are HM and Olympic distance duathlons). Right now (low season) I probably don't do more than about 30 to 40km per week at the peek of a cycle closer to 80km per week (but I also spend a fair bit of time in the saddle on my bike.....)
