Relentless pursuit of health my brother

Wish I had started one years ago. Better late than never I suppose.

Did a long run before church on my favorite loop.

Tried to do a progressive pace run. Mission accomplished, but I should have set a basement in terms of pace. My legs are more sore than I’d like for a training run of this distance. 8:35 is my super ambitious marathon pace.

Just curious, how long did it take you to get to where you're at running? I'm assuming it has to be years now.

I’ve been running casually for about 10 years. Started entering races in 2017, first half marathon in 2019. I’ve gotten a lot more structured in my training the last 5 months.

I get home from work about 2 hours before my wife, so it leaves me with a good amount of time to run after work. Beyond that, it started as a way to keep my weight in check. Then it became fun. It’s something I look forward to after work and on the weekends.

Cool, thanks for sharing.

Been playing a lot of pickup basketball, which has subbed for my cardio 2-3 times per week. Mile time is back under 5 minutes consistently. Going all out once per week. Speed and agility training has really helped as well 2x per week.

Happy running, gents

Steps last week.

I felt weak in my legs and overall a tired run.
Really surprised by the run report at the end.

Nice running slice.

Great job!!! 10k is a tough distance to run and feel like you ran to the best of your abilities.

Bike ride this morning: 20 miles, 1,282’ elevation gain, 1:47 riding time. I explored a route and area nearby but unfamiliar to me.

I’m running part of the race course for the September Long Island 10k in the morning. Or maybe Sunday morning. I’ll get a fill for the “huge hill” everyone is complaining about. With what I normally train on I’m hoping it won’t be a big issue

 

[Orangeslice13]

Going to run the hill 2 times. That’s the plan anyway

 

[Tin Man]

My bike ride yesterday included a ~1/2 mile climb at significant incline. My legs were humming at the crest of that climb.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Maybe tomorrow

Bike ride: 18.54 miles, 1206’ elevation gain, 1:38 riding time

 

[Elhanan]

I walk/jog for an hour each day before lunch then do about 20-40 minutes of weightlifting.

The walk usually last between 30-60 minutes depending on what podcast or playlist I’m listening to.

Can we get a new Exercise Forum added @Freak ?

It’d be cool to have a dedicated spot.

 

[Hunter10139]

Missed the mark three days for varying reasons but a 10+ mile hike Tuesday after work (thanks to my wife who had the kids) carried the week and brought the average above 10k/day.

Foot is doing much better. Had my last PT Friday got my running form fixed, and was able to start day 1 of a C25k today.

 

[Tin Man]

Bike ride: 36.45 miles, 757’ elevation gain, 2:38 riding time

 

[Hunter10139]

First week of a C25k program done. Restarted at the beginning of the program since I haven't been running for months due to my foot. Anxious to get back to running as much as I was but I'm not going to rush it.

DF Memorial Bike Ride: several members of his family (most of whom have not ridden for years) joined his cycling group for a short ride Father’s Day morning. Eyes were moist when his eldest daughter thanked us all. 11.41 miles, 573’ elevation gain, nobody kept track of the time.
