Thank you! Good luck!

Thanks. I wouldn't want to, even if I could. I fundraised for a very special organization that benefits kids like mine with critical and terminal illnesses and my bib was going to have a pic of my kid on it. 😢 Big bummer.
Interesting. I thought static stretching was bad for explosive movements but good for endurance beforehand. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't do much warm-up anymore, neither for running out weightlifting. For weights, I will do that movement without weights for two sets.
Unbelievable. Congratulations!
Interesting idea. I'm not sure that would work. I sweat so much I can't imagine anything sticking. I have pretty sensitive skin, too. I had to wear a 24-hour holter monitor and I literally still have a spot on my skin where the patch was in the shape of a square from months ago!
Took a week off after my longest run ever on Saturday the 18th. I did 16 miles; ran 4 miles at a jog, 4 miles as a harder pace (10:30/mile for me), and repeated it twice. It was a grest run by my feet were killing me after. Got major blisters since I was wearing (the wrong) new shoes.
Started back up yesterday morning. Did 6 miles and then 6x 100m sprints. Tomorrow I'll do 7 miles and then Saturday I'll do another long run. Not sure what I'll do since my running coach was injured and hasn't prescribed me workouts this week.
My race is the Chevron Houston Marathon in January, but I'm only running the half. My first race ever.
Doctors don't want you to know this one trick.
Thank you!
Will do, as long as I remember!
Even though my Garmin said I still need to rest I knocked out my super slow 9 miles today. First 4.5 was not bad, but my legs got heavy as stone over the last half. Feel good bc my coach affirmed that my cardio is there, we just need my legs to catch up. Average pace was 14:05/mile (omg that's ridiculous), but average HR was 122. Took me 2 hours and 7 minutes. But again, I probably should be resting and my legs are paying for it but we'll see how my body recovers with an extra 3 rest days a week.
Thanks. That's what I'm going to try. I'm going to reduce my volume by taking out weights for now because I know I can get back to where I am more easily. I am just now starting to build a good running base and I don't want to regress.
Mmmmm, gadgets.
