Today before I even started running I decided I'd try to run the eight mile course near race pace. It just so happened that the one person that normally pairs with me was going to do hills tonight s
...lf up-tempo. (and that's it for the week, 25 miles or so). The up-tempo was between slower-than 10 mile pace, and slower-than 10 k pace. I'd expected the range to be more like 10k and 5k paces. Sinc...
I ran my first 10k at 1:15 or a pace of 7:42- gasp that is slow!!! Ok, it was my first one, and I wasn't really ready for it (i.e. week 3 of a 10 week 10k clinic...) and I really just wanted to finish
My daughter joined me running a few months ago and now has no difficulty keeping up with my 8min/mile pace (and I'm sure will be much fast before long). She's run a couple of 5ks and would like to hav

Yeah. My strategy in races: Start out at what feels like training pace; you'll be closer to race pace than you'll get with anything that feels like race pace. It also may help to check out the cours

Hi! I'm looking for a pace chart or pace calculator that takes into account 1 minute walking breaks every 10 minutes of running... Does anyone know where I could find one? Thanks!
Oh boy. All I wanted to do today was run 7:40 miles, projected marathon pace. I figured it would be easy but ... I'm still trying to figure out what what happened. It might be because my Sunday long r
