    Re: FFR Runners

    I used to be pretty big into distance running

    I recommend using strava, mostly because it's very easy to use and I've had it for over a year

      Re: FFR Runners

      I've never really been one to run super long distances. I always preferred shorter distances at faster speeds

        Re: FFR Runners

        Whenever I run, I always set a minimum distance of 5k (3.1mi), and just let myself continue from there once I pass it, which usually is running about another mile or two to a bus stop

          Yea it's not a huge deal, just some ongoing tendinitis that flared up again.

          The weather here in Virginia is just getting really nice too... I can't wait to get back out there.

          Also, Strava is pretty sweet. It's definitely better for bikers, but I find it entertaining looking for routes around town that people have made.

          Learn to run when feeling the pain: then push harder.

            I can do whatever app there is for running. My last few runs, I didn't take the phone with me because it's way too heavy to me around the 6 mile mark. That's why I need that armband :(

              I found some on amazon for 10-20 dollars, so they're really cheap

                  Just bought one. Hopefully it will be in Monday or Tuesday. Once I get it, I will add you to friends or something if Strava has that feature.

                    Btw, I'll use account instead of nix since it's really my first.

                      Strava does have a friends feature and a newsfeed to boot. It's free as well!

                      Sounds like a plan. I have switched to aggressive paced walking over jogging, and I've injured myself too many times (paraneal tendons oh my!) and living downtown makes it a little tricky and dangerous given the time of day. I'll still go for runs if I make it to the park, but it casually like to go my distance.

                      Here was a high pace walk I did the other day, and I had to stop running the GPS because my battery was about it die. It's about another 2.5-3 miles back home from where I cut off

                            Whatever happened to the idea of having a fitness subforum

                            Whoever's in charge: Can we make this shit happen?

                              It'd fit down in Life and the Arts

                              I just thinks it's a matter of #effort
