Where's my MISC runners at?

[RockyIV]

Damn, I'm slow as phuck compare to the people in this thread.
Ran 10k last night at 8:48 a mile. Previously, I ran 5 miles in 9:15.

Argh...

That's a good pace. Don't kid yourself. Some people are freaks of nature at running. The rest of us have to work really hard for every second when we improve our pace.

Just run the best that you can run.

yup I'm in the same boat right now, especially in the middle of summer in this heat. Once it starts to cool down it should pickup a bit.

[tattedbrah83]

also running with a weighed vest will make you a helluva runner, once you get used to it and then run without the vest on you will feel light as a feather.

[muruku]

reckon that's just gonna throw ur form off.

fwiw, I have done fast marches and route marches during my military service, and its a whole different animal.. if you wish to increase power output, I think hill sprints and strength training in the gym will be a better and smarter option

[whiterice77]

Started runnin last month

Anyone take a joint supp that notices benefits?

[dailob]

if anyone is on garmin connect AND uses myfitnesspal... they can now sync together!

tried them at rrs shop but they just felt too weird

[KG4NEL]

I've got to make myself wake up earlier to run. I hit the road about 10:30AM yesterday for a 6 mile run and it got hot really quick. I paid for sleeping in. Still got the run in but it wasn't my best time but it's done.

In the summer, if I'm not on the road by 9am, it waits until the evening.

The winter 5am mornings in the dark are where motivation really comes into play...

My training runs are usually around that pace.

Hell, I started at over 10min/mi for a 5K...

Sup brahs, anyone got some good albums to listen to while running, I like dance and compilation type stuff but any recommendation is good.

I almost always pump trance, any sets from thumpers like Ben Gold, Paul Webster, Ummet Ozcan, Andrew Rayel are all pretty good.

They felt a little unusual but the guy said my foot was striking the ground the best in them. He said just take it slow and I will adjust accordingly.

Suunto Ambit 2...

Have to use Strava instead or manual upload to mapmyrun.

Yeah maybe over time i am a forefoot striker but i walked out with nike vomero 9's

[KReyn]

Went on my first run today in about 3 years. I ran a couple miles and I actually enjoyed it. I wanted to do some sprints when I got done but figured I should get used to my Newtons a little more first.

[1800_Cool_Guy]

Anyone know if my 1 mile run will improve with Hiit?

Currently doing Hiit for 30 mins. 1 mile on, 1 mile off. I'm at 10mph on the treadmill hoping to get to 12mph and das it mane. I want to run the mile under 7 minutes or whatever the alpha time is to run a mile. Currently at 8 mins, but that was like a month ago.

[muruku]

that just sounds like interval training.. not HIIT.
My current 1.5mile timing is just under 9:30.. I shaved 45s off in 3 months by doing interval work. 8x400m sprints with full rest between sets or 4x800m sprints with full rest between sets. This is on top of at least 2 easy runs a week.

You can all stop worrying now. I'm back.

[burlyman619]

Just finished my first half marathon on Sunday. Back to bodybuilding. I do not plan on running for awhile, I may get in a 3-4 miler here and there in the future lol.

[Getter_done]

Ran 25 minutes a few days ago, when i first started running a couple months ago my fatass couldnt run 5 minutes without huffing and puffing. soclose to 30 minutes now, my bad knee is acting up though, should i buy a knee sleeve or something?

[muruku]

No. SPend the money on a physio to find out whats causing the knee pain

[GodsParticle]

going to week 3 tommorrow. cant wait. its the couch to 5k running program.

I've officially run myself into a shoe crisis. Since Mizuno Wave Alchemy's aren't made anymore I've been trying to transition to a new shoe.

With that said, first into the shoot is the Wave Paradox. Garage. After three weeks(200+ miles) I've already torn small holes in the sides on both shoes where my pinky toes rub. Apparently my pinky toes are pretty callused from years of abuse in military boots I didn't even notice any issues. On top of that, the shoe has caused pain, not shin splits or stress fractures, just general muscle aches over my shins and in my calves. Probably has a lot to do with my mileage on a daily basis and not willing to slowdown to break in the shoes. So used to grabbing a new pair of Wave Alchemy's and off I went with no issues.

Also, I tend to run my shoes into the ground to the point I wear the rub sole to wear it might not be present in some places. For those wondering it takes about 2,000 miles or so to do that.

That said, anyone have an suggestions or know any heavier set ultra friends? Curious to know what they're running. I don't have issue with minimal shoes (used to wear five fingers and new balance's minimus series). I'm a fore to mid-foot striker. Varies between road and trail. I'm a big mileage(80-120 miles) a week and will do any thing from couple half marathons one week to an ultra the next in the mountains. I've literally had no running related injuries in the past 10 years that didn't put me out any longer than a couple days (bad blisters, stub a toe hard, etc).


Edit: Debating Brooks Ravenna 5 or New Balance 890's.

[Mafioso76]

Not as hardcore as the poster above me on the mileage...mirin though... I'm curious as to shoes for Spartan runs and such. Anyone got any recommendations for shoes that are light with a strong grip in muddy and wet conditions? I'm off to do my 6 mile run/90% ...hilly terrain...doomed by my environment unless I drive out...hopefully no more than a 9 to 10 minute mile pace.

[jay197]

Brahs been running for only 2 weeks and yesterday I started getting some knee pain after my run.

Should I continue running through it? What sups can I take for this?

I tried icing and applying some cream but I still have that nagging feeling.

Do shoes are you running in? And how old are they? One of the most overlooked and most important in my opinion, is getting a quality pair of running shoes. If you go to any legit running shoe store, there are often times professionals that will fit the shoe that best for your running style.
