Did you race this weekend? Tell us all about it! We want to hear about the good, bad, ugly, whatever!
So who is racing this weekend? 5K to marathon, let us know what you are doing and good luck out there.
I've set up a new lifetime running challenge Google Doc -- use this to set your own goals, then track and see how you compare to others on MFP. You can set any goal you want -- 1,000 - 2,000 - 5,000 - 10,000 - 20,000 or more! Ideally this should be a long term goal; something that should take you at least a year to…
I've been a runner for years but in the last week, I have started intermittent fasting for the health benefits and to get a little leaner. My question is to other runners here that practice intermittent fasting. Any tips? Warning signs? Do's and don'ts? Ran 5 this morning near the end of a 16 hour fast, which was my…
My non-training plan run schedule is 6 miles 4-5 days/week and 1 long run at 8-12 miles. Varied pace, but always easy or comfortable. I am signed up for a spring marathon and thought it would be a good idea for me to follow a half marathon training plan in the fall. I am not signing up for any fall road races. Most…
Has anyone run the DE Marathon (not DE Coastal) and would you recommend? It is scheduled for April 25th. One of my friends is signing up for the Dirty German on May 8th. If I train for a 50k, I might as well consider a marathon 2 weeks earlier.
As autumn rapidly approaches I find myself trying to focus on spring. It's tough getting the training done during the cold and dark months, so having a goal lined up and some events committed really helps. What is your event? What is the goal? Are you trying anything different this year with your training? After a great…
Started training for the Atlantic City Marathon scheduled for October 2020. 15 months should be plenty of time. ;-) I ran a half marathon in September 2016 (2:17:10), kept in pretty good shape, but not running a lot. More elliptical, rowing and weights (Strong Lifts 5x5). Starting with a c2 5K program, graduating to a 10K…
I am running my 4th marathon the 1st weekend in April. Hoping to drop 5-10 lbs by then by watching my in take a little bit closer. Currently, I'm limiting to 2000 calories a day and not adding back for my exercise. I run 5 days a week- 40ish miles a week, strength training 2 days a week. My question is, on my long runs…
I just realized that I'm 19 weeks out from a marathon that I deferred from last spring (Coastal Delaware). That means I need to get serious about my training again, under the assumption that the race will actually happen. Of course, I have no idea what the situation will be then, so it's a bit hard to get motivated to work…
I wasn't into virtual races before this crisis set in. But when you think about all the money the promoters and sponsors already poured into these now canceled races - and most important of all, the causes & charities benefited from those races - it's a cool way to do our thing to support the overall community. I'm a fan…
Hello all, I am preparing for my first half marathon race. My goal is to run around 2:15h. Now I have condition to run about 8 maybe 9 km slowly (about 7:30min per km). I have 12 weeks for prepare. Can someone help me and give me some training plan? Thanks.
I have officially signed up for the Amerithon Challenge. I’m sooo totally stoked and can’t wait to get my team built up and get the first few miles on the tracker.
