Sean90 Posted November 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 My right leg below my knee is still getting really tired around the 22 minute mark though. Once it hurts I start running forefoot to use different muscles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob129 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Every other day works pretty well. I found that my cardiovascular endurance is out stripping my neuromuscular endurance as the distances grow. My body needs an extra day to recover. I sure hope my body adjusts soon. Â Even with one day off I've noticed my pace is about 10 sec per km worse than when I take two days off. Rob129 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean90 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Just finished week 7. Proud of myself. I ran for 30 minutes today just because. Wasn't to my car and wanted to see what azatol was talking about. So 30 minutes and 2.8 miles. I want to say to anyone that is just starting out. Please don't give up. Completely worth it to fight through and continue the program. Everything in my life has gotten better. Have a much better outlook on everything. I'm proud of myself and the way my body is changing. My wife is proud of me... Just keep going and you will be happy also. Happy running Ruthie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendell Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Way to go Sean!! You nailed it on the head. It's hard, but so worth it! I have two weeks to go in the program, but it's opened up a whole new world for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean90 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Glad everything is going good for you wendell...I'm going to download the 10k app today and get ready for it.....azatol. I will finish the program next Wednesday. What can I do to start working on speed. I really want to do the 5k in 30 minutes or less. I will have 3 weeks to improve time after i finish the program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean90 Posted December 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Ruthie. Are you going to get the 10k app and do it or stay around the 5k distance. Azatol. Do you think just going into the 10k app will help me with my speed in a 5k event Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruthie Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Sean - good for you!! Proud of you that you worked your way out of the slump you had and got back with the program. Its so worth it :-) Â I will do the 10k but not right away. I want to run the distance of 5k first and get comfortable with it. So probably in two or three weeks time.

Azatol Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Ruthie. Are you going to get the 10k app and do it or stay around the 5k distance. Azatol. Do you think just going into the 10k app will help me with my speed in a 5k event Sean, yes and no. Speed training is what truly helps you get faster however if you are able to run 6 miles and are only racing 3, you will find that you're not pushing yourself to your distance limit so will naturally run faster as you have to keep less in the tank to go the distance. Â Does that make sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean90 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I kinda want to just try and run the 5k tomorrow and not worry about the 28 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruthie Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I was going to do that for the last day of week 8 but since I screwed up today, maybe I'll postpone that a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean90 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Now I messed up. This is my 3rd day without getting my run in. Work has been crazy lately. I have to run tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
