Clone running question
Jul 11, 2012, 3:09 PM
|
|
Let's say you go "run" a 5k. But you don't really run the whole 5k. I mean, you make it 5k but you run, jog, walk. Jog, walk, walk, jog, run, walk, etc. You finish though.
Did you really run a 5k? Is this frowned upon by the runsters?

One of the biggest names in running...

Jeff Galloway (1972 Olympian) has a running system called Run Walk Run. He says you wind up not being as tired, never getting injured etc.
The "serious" runners (HS/College types who are competitive) probably sneer but the other 99% of runners at a 5K don't care. You're out there and doing it.
What really twists your noodle, is when you're doing your normal pace...8 min mile or so, and one of these run walkers pass you. Then you figure it is for real.

resting causes you to be able to recover faster, go longer, with less chance of injury.

ive never even thought about training for a marathon, but
Jul 11, 2012, 3:45 PM

this has me intrigued. His training for a marathon basically just has you run for 30 min twice during the week and then big runs on sundays. I always just assumed training for a marathon invovled running 58 miles a week.

Hal Higdon (other Marathon coach) has runs 5 days a week

rest one day and cross-train on the other. It gets hard when you have family obligations. Also, the Furman University FIRST program has alot less days of running while training.

Bottles my mind, but I have not tried it. It's all I can do to approach 3:30, and I run my a$$ off.
