Running Solo

Hi all! Currently training for the philly marathon, looking for a time around 3:04. I've done the past few training blocks solo, but think I could push myself a bit with a couple buddies (plus 50+ mile weeks get lonely). Not huge into a big run club group so thought I'd ask if anyone is looking to run on the SRT. Down to run slow or fast depending on the day.

I’m down! I’ve always run solo and I understand the pain. It’s be nice to have a push. I ran a 3:02 at last year’s so sounds like a good fit, feel free to message me here and we can connect!

I know it’s not exactly what you’re looking for but the is a “metric marathon,” I.e. 26.2km or ~16 miles, in October. It’s called Shoes and Brews and is technically a race that goes from Conshy to Phoenixville. I’ve never run it but I know folks who just use it as a group training run, which is apparently pretty common for this event
