Just a general thread about running. How’s your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

    Running a 35km training run tomorrow in preparation for my first 50k! I struggled with a hamstring injury the first part of the year so I’m glad to be where I’m at now.

      That’s sick! Will you also do back to back long runs at some point? How long will your taper be? How much elevation is in your 50k?

        Two week taper. I’m not sure the elevation, but I ran 12 miles in the same area last year and the elevation gain was 1500 ft for that run according to Strava.

        As for back to back runs, all I can say for now is “we’ll see.” I’d like to get on that level. It also depends on how you define a long run. Could I run another 35k today? Absolutely not lol.
