Wasnt too bad. Should have been faster. Did the first five miles too fast and burned out towards the end. Ended up doing 9-13 at a walk-run.
My friend Stephanie who runs alot of marathons once told me this ādonāt be an idiot at the beginning of the run and donāt be a whimp at the endā since I started running 12milers it makes more and more sense.
Yeah, its totally true. The particular run that i had done was downhill for the first 5 miles. Difficult to regulate your pace.
Downhill for five miles.
That sounds rough!! Was it road? Trail? Mixture of both?
Most of the run is road. About 3 miles in the middle are on a dirt road dodging huge puddles. Ive trained downhill though. The first year was bad, but after that it hasnt been so bad.
Damn bro.
You are a legit beast!!
:Tips hat:
Lol. Not as legit as some. When i ran my marathon, it was pathetic.
You and pathetic are two words I wouldnāt associate together
Lol. I ran the first half of it great, then the second half was crap. Took me 5 hours. Someday Iāll do another, but not anytime soon. When the boys are much older and i have more training time. Itās too much to be out running for 4 hours every Saturday morning plus 1 to 1.5 hour runs multiple other tines in the week. My wife wouldnt stand for me being gone so much.
@Englishd suggested I use this app seeing as Iām now the proud owner of a road bike! I was going thru the posts following you guys but thatās too many posts to scroll thru so follow me and Iāll follow back!
Kyle Simpson is my name, Eugene, OR is my location.
Looking forward to getting down some mileage
This is awesome! Good work!!
Is it going up the inside of your shin? Whatās it feel like?
Rub some dirt on it and man up
If I do a push up will you stop crying?
I wouldnāt do one unless I could prove it
I need a damn good reason to do one
I was just setting the terms. I agreed to nothing!
I honestly donāt believe that you will stop crying about your boo-boo
Howās the crying working out?
Probably not shin splints. Possibly something else, Iād call Posterior Shin Splits. Not the same. Strain of the deep Poroneal muscles. Ice, rest, mobility, stretching.
