/run/-Running General

Idk about you guys but I prefer running through town than trails. I know it's not good for your knees but something about it I just enjoy.

alright /run/, what's the final verdict. to strike with the heel, or to not strike with the heel?

I should have included this in the first post my bad.

Heel striking in not good. All that shock has to go somewhere. It's better to have your feet under you when you land with the midfoot the distribute the shock.

If not that shit is going to wreck your heel, knees, hips, and back. I even stopped listening to music on my runs because I noticed my form was off with my feet clomping too loud.

>only 110km of running so far this month

Should I try to make it 200km before the month ends?

also how stupid will I be if I go running 3 days after a marathon? will my legs suffer?

bump, where all the runners at?

If you want to run and feel up to it then Have a run man. Your body will tell you if its a bad idea after 10 mins. You've had 3 days to recover after all....

Somewhat fast person who actually understands principles of training for racing here (pic related). Not sure how many here are actually trying to get faster vs. just get in shape but if you have any questions about improving from 400m on up I'm happy to share what I know.

who /hill sprints/ here

Fuck that's fast.
I currently run 6k at 4:50/k - how can I train to get faster at this distance?

Pls post marathon training girl.
