    Workout today was alright, had to cut it short since I wasn't feeling at my best. Running portion was fine but I am noticing that my knee bothers me more if I run slower, can't wait for the MRI so I can finally know whats up. I might go for a short run outside tomorrow as opposed to the treadmill, might help relax me and take my mind off things. If I do, I'll put up a vid.

    d--- @Nori, that's a very steady 8 minute pace for a 5 mile run, especially with a hurt knee. Good job, hopefully you can get back to running halfs soon. How do you like Map My Run? I've been using Nike Plus for like 4 years so I'm hesitant to switch and lose all my stats.

    @Mimi I also use Nikes, mostly because it's a popular brand and they work for me. Also I have a Nike outlet 10 minutes away where I can get an $80-100 pair for about $40, so it's worth it.

    Also I agree with you @rapmusik. If I don't run in the morning I will likely not run at all, I just have to do it early. Especially in this heat.

    Checking in!

    Haven't run in a few days but now that my half-marathon is over I'm going to focus on training to beat my 1 mile and 5k times.

    I'm sure they're not that hard to beat for @Nori and some others here.

    1 mile: 7:16
    5K: 25:40

    I just went on my first run in I don't know how long after hitting the gym. Feels pretty good and I think I'll start doing it more.

    Only problem I am having now is where I tore my MCL 2 years ago is feeling a lil weird. Slowly going away though.

    It's not like I never run but I haven't done a long distance run in a while. I play basketball all the time but I'm not running constantly. I feel like I should have been going to conditioning for Football season this whole summer lol oh well

    I don't have any personal experience or help but I do enjoy r/running to see what other people have to say. There is also r/advancedrunning which may help.


    Please with myself today. Was not feeling like going out but I got my a--- up and did it anyway, added an extra 1km - 2km onto my run.

    How would one record how long they walk for? I don't run but I go for walks every other day and I'm pretty sure I go for at least a mile each time

    Anyone tried Spotify's new Running mode? It curates music based on your steps/minute. I ran to the "Epic" playlist, felt like Hans Zimmer was scoring my run and zombies were chasing me. Fastest average mile time in a while.

    @Mimi yeah injuries are part of it. But that runner's high and stress/anxiety relieve is worth it IMO. Plus you can prevent injuries by going to the gym and working on the muscles surrounding your knees (wish I had known that sooner). Regarding the sneakers, I've used both Nike and Saucony. I'm a big Nike fan and haven't really had any issues with my past few sneakers, but from what I've read around other forums and seen at races, Saucony seems to be pretty respected and the price point is a bit cheaper I think. My next pair will probably Saucony.

    for me, running is best early in the morning. like, I'd rather get out there and run at 6 in the morning as opposed to 3 in the afternoon. it's quieter, more peaceful, less traffic, etc. same with going out for a bike ride
