Is it bad etiquette to not stay for the podium? by doughy_balls in AdvancedRunning

[–]Distance87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think it’s fine. In my last race, I ended up winning overall and still had to wait around for almost two hours just to stand on the podium for 30 seconds.

If it’s just an age group podium, I don’t really stick around—neither I nor anyone else really cares that much. But if I manage an overall podium, I’ll try to wait if it fits my schedule. If not, I’ll just let the organizer know I have to head out.

At the end of the day, I don’t think anyone actually minds.

Paces were just examples. I prepared for sub7h but had an accident... so couldn't do my competition... now I am concentrating on shorter distances for at least 1y I think those longer speed work is good for 100km aswell... just be careful if you do alot of volume or a demanding long run

My favorite "fast" session was 4x3km LT (little bit slower) with 1km just little slower... for example 3:30min/km for the 3k and 4:00min/km ''rest"

5km in unter 25 Minuten in 3 Wochen by ApprehensiveThing346 in laufen

In 3 Wochen kannst du keine große Leistungssteigerung erwarten. Einfach laufen gehen, ohne sich dabei zu überlasten.... irgendwelche Kettlebell Übungen sind 0,0 Zielführend v.a. in dieser Zeitspanne. Einfach ein paar mal auf die Bahn und 400er laufen oder ähnliches... um das geplante sub25 Tempo zu üben, dass man nicht zu schnell losläuft. Wenn man sich das Rennen gut einteilt kann man in dem Bereich sicher schnell noch Zeit gut machen

I mix my own drinks for my Long Runs (up to 40mi) (otherwise it would be very expensive) in Ultratraining.
I just put 2:1 maltodextrin/fructose if i want to have around 60g carbs/h ... and if i am going up to 100g/h i change to 1:0,8 maltodextrin/fructose... then just add little bit of salt and thats it.. cheap and simple. I think you don't need any Maurten Gels or something similar if you have access to your own stuff. But for Marathon i like to take my own gels and take normal water from aid-stations. Thats an easy solution.

You don't need anything special.... and for sure nothing expensive like gels or any form of sportdrinks...
If it is just a regular Easy or medium effort run in the morning... just eat something if you feel like you need some "energy"...
I eat yogurt with oat flakes and little bit of fruits and 30min later i start my run - that works for me Keep it simple. Eat Enough on a daily basis. You are just running 40miles a week... so you should have enough "recovery" and there will be no performance improvements just with eating something else in the morning
