A place to talk about fitness and health on Farcaster.

First time running a half marathon distance in 8 years. It felt great! 

The training runs are definitely working. 

Now I have a month to get the pace to somewhere between 8:00-8:45/mile. 

(Depends on how my wife is running after the swim and bike of her half Ironman)

Genart collector. Tinkerer. Investor. Crypto maximalist. Nomadic traveler w/ my wife and 3 kids. Temporarily settled-ish in Spain

I was running 3-5 miles, two times a week for a long time. 45 min was my max long run at the time.

About 8 weeks ago I started pushing  the long run by 10 min a week. 

And I added an interval training run each week (warmup then 6x400 m fast run w 60 seconds jog in between, etc). 

And I’ve been pushing the other run longer each week too by 5 min.

Wow! how did you work up to this? how did you know you were ready?
