What did you do?

[LAKid53]

That's what I do. It's a break about every 1 to 1.5 miles.

That's how I've been training. When I read that, I thought, duh, that makes sense.

Stay safe in those tornados people!

7 miles on Sunday, slow for me. 4 miles last night at a decent pace for me.

Chest workout (and it was a nice one )

 

[DznyGrlSD]

Ran 15 mins before my group class - 1.3 mi @ 11:27/mi then 45 mins of circuit/quick fit

I do something similar. I tend to run for about 12 mins or so (just about a mile for me depending on what condition I'm in) and then I'll walk 2-3. 15 minutes overall makes it easy to calculate. Although I can run longer periods (as in I am capable of running an hour nonstop) I end up slowing down considerably so this interval works best for me on long distances and is overall a faster pace because I am more consistent in my running period.

my trainer wants me to run straight through no matter how slow I am. It's kind of frustrating, but kind of empowering. I did a 10k back in April without walking. My next long run is 8 miles on the 12th - we'll see if I can make it w/o walking.

I personally believe that aiming on longer runs without breaks is a good way to improve aswell, as it keeps your pace, cadans and heartbeat the same. In the end, it's about finding the pace & heartbeat that you can maintain as endurance.

What I did: back workout

I've been in training groups that prefer that, and I humor them and do it when we are in a collective training. But when I know that in long distances (10k and more) my overall speed is faster the way I do it, I stick to what works for me. For shorter distances, it really doesn't make a difference in my overall speed.

I've always been a run straight through kind of runner. Nothing wrong with walk breaks but it was always a personal goal for me to be able to run whatever distance I was trying to complete without stopping. I may even go slower overall without the walk breaks but it's just a thing I force myself to do. Even for my marathon.

Well, I'm back on the road for W&D training. Slow 3-miler Saturday. I have some work to do to get back up to speed. Didn't feel bad, just really slow. Shockingly slow.
