#Running

To hit that 2 hour marathon time, you have to eat a huge amount of carbs while #running, which is really expensive if in the form of store bought gels, this guy has got a good system of DIY gels. I'm thinking of just running with a sugar cookie and some water to drink.

I'm disappointed Corey Booker's #marathon speech wasn't about #running a marathon.

Protip: To save money buy shoes that are popular in #marathon #running

- Ordinary shoes are trashed after about 300 miles (squashed foam, corners abraded off)
- Shoes are trashed long before they start causing you knee pain
- My Saucony Triumph are still chugging along at double/triple that

So marathon shoes, per mile are cheaper.

(But not super shoes, carbon plate and running & marshmallow foam is different)

I ran so far I think I'm in Austria or somewhere #running I hear from the Icelanders that there are good cakes here.

My #strava post #running outside the #pyconus conference in Pittsburg.

The river trail is great at night, very pretty bridges, so many bridges. Leonhard Euler would have loved it here.

How do we know we live in a simulation? Ever see #runners glitch into a T-Pose when they #running across a finish line?

So we're probably in a Unity game engine and the world will end when the game gets popular and the developer in the sky can't afford the licensing costs.

So 4 years later, we think #running with covid is okay, especially if you were a runner before. Maybe. Anyhow I'm not going to take a 10 to 79 day break.

I have a deal with my body. All parts serve at the pleasure of the heart and brain. Any subcomponent that doesn't want to get with the program can get with the program or f*k off and die.

In other words, no coddling of the lungs or muscles if it costs cardiovascular fitness.

The grinch and #runners experience cardiac remodeling, leading to athlete's heart. If your heart grows too many sizes, you get cardiomegaly. So be careful mixing running and holiday good cheer.

A) goal: run 8:30 minute miles
B) goal: finish strong and uninjured
C) goal: is a bird on the beach

@jemal@jemal.contact Lots of charts & tables. I look at them daily, so I think that is where I get most of my value. There are a bunch of other features that exist for a really specific subset (skiers, injured runners, etc, etc). I used the free version until I decided I wanted the extra charts. Youtube has the best pro-/anti- info on #Strava. I also follow local people to see what routes they are #running.

Mastodon strategy: So I now got 8 accounts. I opened a #running account because:

- There is an upper bound on how much running my small audience wants to hear about here.
- I can follow a running tag here, but not all of them or it will flood my feed
- Retweeting running content here uses up my small budget for "off topic" content ("Off topic" here means, all the stuff that is too far from my typical, the content that encouraged people to follow me initially)

Run after me at @runmattrun

3 degrees from being to hot to go running out side without specific training for #running in ovens. https://readwise.io/reader/shared/01h55tp22cdefmyvrr17m8t1aw

2nd run in my Saucony Triumphs. They're uncomfortable to walk in, too squishy and shifty. But if I run at about tempo run, they are comfortable. The squishy sole firms up under a foot strike. They shoes will make me run fast because running slow is uncomfortable.

What they remind me of are my Nike Vaporflys, also only comfortable running as fast as I can.

Want to know what sounds like an LLM but isn't? #Running shoe reviews. The hegemonic text says Saucony Triumph is the best shoe for long distance and there are hours of glossolalia about heel drop, foam, toe boxes, etc to back it up.

How to run a sub 3 hour marathon? Run *6:51 *minutes per mile.

Hope that helps.

Okay, fine, no Marine Corp Marathon this year. But if you count the two 1/2 marathons I'll be running, that like running a whole marathon. (Or 8 5ks, that a marathon, too)

The trick I guess is to sign up for the mailing list & then register the 1st day you can, scroll down half way.

IDEA: marathon training, but it is all taper

#running

Marine Corp Marathon sold out :( now I have to pick a new one.

#running

The 10 got his 2nd best 5k score #running

Baby shoes, worn once, kicked off at last 100 meters of Salt Lake City marathon, setting a world record for the 6mo to 2 year age bracket as the crowd went wild. #running

Take that Hemminway

Ho, an excuse to buy some shoes. Cycling between 2 #running shoes might reduce injury & let's the foam pop back into place.

people: This is a video about being chased by monsters in a nightmare
me a runner: This is a nightmare about having to run in the wrong shoes. I bet I could crush my 5k PR if I had monsters as pacers.

Getting ready for the fastest 5k in a thunderstorm, unless I'm struck by lightning. So it could be DNF. ( Did not finish) #running

One training hour til half marathon.

Time to Google "one hour half marathon training plan type:pdf"

#running

American's hate sensible measuring systems, #running edition

1 & 2 mile
5k
10k
5 miles (Army Rangers)
1/2 marathon
marathon

So that is metric, imperial and "distance between two Greek cities"

13 #running days until my next half marathon. Can't decide if my taper should be a percent of max miles (not very high ~38miles per week or an hour a day), or some lower absolute number, like 45-60 minutes (which is nearly what I've been running already.

Are you a #SeriousRunner Index
- train in carbon plate shoes (bad idea)
- toes socks
- daily runner
- 5k race every weekend
- You crave salt (it's from dehydration)
What else?
#running

5k Race this morning and I get to deal with
- DST change, so little sleep
- Today's high is ~40 degrees F. The climate has so few F's to give today.
So I get to manage both overheating and freezing all in a 30 minute time block.

I have a 5k race tomorrow and one of the kids is sick & the wife will be running with the other. So I get to run full speed. I'm also training for a 1/2 marathon. I think I'm going to use it as an interval training session

- run really fast for 3 minutes
- slow down for 3 minutes
- repeat

Maybe 25.5 minutes?

My usual race strategy is
- use fast looking people as pacers
- negative splits
- try to pass the person in front of me

Old studies on #vegetarian runners focused on people who were veg*n for as few as 4 days. Results: no effect on #running perf.

New studies looking at veg*n for 4 years+ show
- higher vo2 max
- longer time to exhaustion
- better aerobic capacity
- other metrics the same
Other metric, no difference. No data on life-long #vegan s, so this is comparing, say 35 years of meat vs 31 years of eating meat.

I don't want to go #running but there is norovirus in the house, so I could be puking tomorrow. So it is time to run.

Remember folk, choose your food wisely. It may come back to haunt you.

What if the "optimal" cadence... 180 is just the cadence of short people and short body types have the edge in running (East Africans, best in the world runners, are not tall). I bet cadence per foot of height would make the correlation go away.

Buying my 3rd pair of Parley running shoes.

Litter is my pet peeve & these are made of PET, at least the cloth uppers are.

Get yourself some too

My Garmin says my temperature (as measured at my wrist) falls, then rises over a 30 minute run. This pattern almost always happens. I don't know why it initially falls. Temperature rising for last 2/3 is obvious.
