Have super shoes gone too far and reached a point where they may increase injury risk? Interesting debate in a recent journal.

Your thoughts?

Nice October morning completed my 1st 10km of the month. Several “good morning” given and received, plenty of ducks a courting! Lots of Squirrels in Beeley Woods assume collecting food for winter.

Its #friday - happy days indeedy!! Earlier work finish & a quieter - hopefully- work day! Half training continues with a rather fabby 4.5mile set of intervals round the block & still eerily quiet - dark & relaxing! Let's do this! #runchat #running #weekend ❤️🏃‍♀️🥳

Short and sweet on account of me despising running in the rain. But, I wanted to get October off to a good start, so here we are. #Running #RunChat

What could possibly go wrong?

The new Nike Apex super shoe stacks 40mm of cushioning under both the heel and forefoot, and it drops just days after the Adidas Pro Evo 3 swept the podiums in Berlin.

Hmmm. This may be a way to retain some fitness as I deal with an injury.

New month need a #running variety so going to try 3 runs a week all 10km I plan to mix it up, routes and hills some speed in the mix and a #parkrun or two but all start to finish will be 10km #runchat #oversixtiesrunners Tomorrow will be the start. Also got a 10km race in two weeks #ten-ten-ten.

Interesting data from the applicant pools for the last 5 Boston Marathon entry periods. Bottom line: You need to beat your qualifying time by 5-7 minutes to be among the 70% who get in.

Took it easy this morning. Delco 10 Miler is on Sunday. I won’t be setting any PR’s but I’m hoping for a decent run.

Last run for September. Averaged just over 25 miles/week. Really need to be in the 35-40 range for October. Hopefully we’re done with the oppressive summer heat. #Running #RunChat

Can your running data predict an injury?

A recent study followed 643 marathoners to see whether training data could flag trouble before runners got hurt.

Querfeldein, Long Run

Run Club day, but no run buddy showed up. Didn’t found my pace today and everything felt uneven. Run was hard. I am glad it’s over.

#5KADay 809/811+ #running 7.27 km, 7.21 km and 10.11 km hitting 150 mi/mo yesterday. Tuesday’s 10k felt especially sloggy. The weather has been a bit warmer&sunnier. Doing the big long runs & more miles definitely means going slower with no break days. #Runsky #Runchat #Runningpunks 🐧 visit Tuesday

A more fun way to decide than a simple coin toss.

The London Marathon has revealed how its elite races will be split across next year’s historic two-day event – with the decision settled by a game of rock, paper, scissors!

Got a 7.25 mile run in with a few race pace strides. The #Delco10Miler is Sunday. Normally ten miles is easy for me but my current health situation has me slowed down.

Recovery, Trail

Slow sloppy trail run to sort my mind and shakeout my legs from yesterday’s race.

We have a mini heart wave so today feels a little bit like summer wich is nice.

More like Wicked Short.

The B.A.A. has told runners the Wicked Fast Poconos Marathon trail race, marketed as a Boston Marathon qualifier, did not cover its certified 26.2 miles on Sept. 13. Those affected have until Monday to find another time.
