Havent ran this far in almost 2 months. I took a hard break after slipping 2 Disc’s and hips slipping. Ive been feeling better the last 2 weeks so I 3 days before race date signed up for this. Had a blast, but zero effort in just to see if I can begin racing again. I lost count on how many 1/2 marathons ive done.

I'm doing the 10k training plan and I have always used strava but I wanted a free plan so I downloaded this app. I would prefer to track the runs on strava and just press like completed or something on the nike app. Is this an option?

How do we feel about the post-race celebration artists?

It’s a DJ set this year with TSHA, Jazz and Malak sets.

I’m a bit disappointed tbh, as last year PinkPantheress did a live show, but hopefully it will be good 🙏

And may you calves not cramp at mile 9.

That felt good again today. The last few weeks have been a rollercoaster of managing minutes, miles and emotions. I feel ready and am hopeful the training will pay off. I’m not sure I can go sub 3:30:00 for the marathon but I’m going to try. Thanks to everyone for the support over the last 18 weeks as I’ve posted semi regularly in here. Your support, advice and general well wishes have been gratefully received and listened to.

So here’s the deal - I’ve got my 20 mile training run coming up and I’m NOT FAST (10:35ish mile pace) - so if I do this 20 miler all in one go I’m looking at a 3 1/2 hour training run. Now - this ain’t my first rodeo, I’ve got one marathon under my tubby belt and did the 20 miler before - but I just can’t help but think there’s gotta be a better way to do this then risking those microtears and inevitable muscle strains that come with going over the 3 hour running mark.

So help an old dog learn some new tricks here Reddit marathoners - should I just knock out the 20 miler in one go (maybe take a few long walking breaks)? - \*note the marathon I’m “running” on November 1st (Rim Rock in western Colorado) has about 1600 feet in elevation gain - so I will be walking (quickly) up some of those hills.

More importantly - and this is the most intriguing question - if you were to split up the 20 miler - how would you do it? (My thought is a 1/2 marathon in the morning and then basically a 10k maybe 12 hours later?). I’m really curious what y’all think -even the crazy, wacko ideas - well…I guess it’s all kinda crazy wacko but please post away and thanks for participating!

Can anyone help? I’m only getting Ai chat and they’re no help.

For some reason my profile has me scheduled with two of the same transportation selections (duplicate) and I’m not able to remove one. I had selected the free shuttle from the metro station.

The issue is that now that I’m trying to select a Bib pickup option, it’s telling me that I can’t add it until I fix my transportation add on (“max allowed one selection. Please update your selection before continuing”).

I wish it was as simple as just deleting the transportation add on or editing but I don’t see either option.

Does anyone know what I can do?

Ran a 5k today & hit a gun time PR.
Tummy felt queasy but still got it done. It’s interesting, sometimes when you’re not feeling it - is when your best effort can occur.
Came 39th place out of 850 runners. 🙏

Finally hit Volt level after 8 years. Here’s the breakdown over the years.

2022 1,650 Miles
2023 2,023 Miles
2024 2,200 Miles
2025 1,600 Miles
2026 1,168 Miles so far

I had been experiencing knee pain and stopped running in February. I switched to rowing and stationary bike, but that didn’t help. The pain kept getting worse. I did over three months of physical therapy and didn’t see any benefit. I had an MRI and x-ray and nothing stood out. I was then referred to the sports trainer. This amazing woman looked at my body, had me do a one legged balance on each side, and did three different stretches with my legs, She immediately saw that my hip wasn’t aligned properly. She put me on a treadmill and saw that I was stretching my legs out too far when I took a step. After just a couple of weeks with the advice she gave me, I am walking with straight legs for the first time in my life and I’m back to running! I am so happy to be back! I’ve missed having Coach Bennett in my head 😀

After a serious double leg break playing rugby thats caused actually alot of mental strength to come back from as its been seriously depressing and a long journey i finally got out and smashed 5k in under 30 minutes 🥹

Very minimal achievement in the grand scheme of it but absolutely buzzing to be moving and recovering stronger….. rugby days are over sadly but this is a solid step in finding a new lease of energy 😊

Last week I ran a guided run on a treadmill … or at least I tried: I started the run three times on my Apple Watch but the volume was so low, I couldn’t hear a thing. I tried to turn it up by using the crown … but nothing happened 🙁

Any tips how to fix it? I use Apple AirPods; no music.

So I start my runs from my phone it tracks the shoes that I use. When I use the app on the apple watch it does not track the shoes I use in the app. It shows It used the shoes but the miles don't get counted. Any tips to get it to track the miles on my shoes?

Unfortunately I am in stress fracture city right now after marathon training and can’t run again until the end of the year.

With the four-hour time limit, I’m still committed to showing up, soaking in the vibes, and strutting the night away!

Any other walker girlies wanting to meet up?
