I am so happy to find this forum for runners! I was afraid I was going to have to start one. I have been running for most of my life. Currently I am in my pre-training mode before starting on my marathon training plan just after the first of the year. Due to a couple of deferrals from cancellations due to our friend COVID…

I live in Maine and run outdoors year round. Due to COVID-19 my narathons were deferred so I am training for two next year I have all the proper gear to run to -10 F (if no wind) I do need to replace my gloves so I would be interested to hear what others are wearing in extreme cold.

I train in the dark! Up in Maine it's dark when I leave for work and it's dark when I get home. I run outside year round. I just completed the Marine Corps Marathon in D.C. last week and after a week of rest I have signed up for a marathon in May which means I will definitely need motivation and support to crawl out of bed…

My winter training has really gotten into gear in the last couple of weeks. I am in Bangor, Maine and running outside year round presents challenges but I can't stand Treadmills! Power to those who can. I am currently running 25mpw ramping up to 35 by the end of March. My hope is to be selected in the lottery for the USMC…

Hi my name is Mark. I run 5-6 days a week and have completed 5 marathons but am still 6 min off my BQ.

My current goal (Jan 2017) is to keep my miles and…
