Friday Poll 🛣️
What do you consider to be your official ‘Long Run’? (No right or wrong answers here, just curious!)

@Erin Phifer oooh I think you nailed the exact reason why I just always call my longest run of the week on Saturdays my long run! It really does help me mentally prepare for it both the night before and during!

All of my Saturday runs get dubbed my long runs regardless of distance but mostly because it’s habit by now, though Erin’s comment earlier makes total sense about how it prepares me to tackle them with getting proper sleep, hydration, and fuel!

Midweek Check-In/Wednesday Wins!
How is everyone doing? I know the heat and the wildfire smoke have definitely thrown some curveballs into the summer training plans (along with some of us that are dealing with injuries or niggles that have popped up), so what can we help support and cheer you on with? What is a win you’ve had (or hope to have) this week? My win is that I can finally pick up my leg to get dressed in the morning without my hip flexor hurting. PT is working its magic!

@Kristine Owen Wood that is awesome!! The treadmill can be a love/hate relationship, so I'm glad it was leaning towards the former for you. :)

Too often honestly! And I’m sure part of that has attributed to my current injury and trying to get back to where I was / prove something to myself after my half in March.

Would you rather?
10k in September overlaps with training for a (second) marathon in November. Would you.. A) finish the 10k plan B) start marathon training July 26th

I’m also going to agree with Kristine! I vote to focus on the race that is your primary goal. That being said, it’s definitely possible to do both since you’ll be running 10k’s like the back of your hand as part of marathon training. 😊 You got this!!

@Kristine Owen Wood I’m so glad it is doing better!! Very proud of you for not just pushing through it and ignoring it. That’s hard not to do!
