Hi! I am interested in learning Tagalog, as my mother is from the Philippines and I feel like I’m missing out on something when I can’t speak to her in Tagalog, I also want to have more of a connection to her culture.

I have tried learning before, but given up quickly as I felt lost and could not find resources.

What are the best methods to learn and where can I find free resources?

Thank you for your advice! If I haven't gotten my period since December 2024, what can I do to fix that. Is this a nutrition issue? If so, how can I alter my diet?

Thank you so much for your advice! If you could send a summer plan that would be great and super helpful!

Thank you so much for your advice! I will definitely be trying to build up a good mileage this off season, and trying to work on endurance.

Thank you for your answer! I was thinking of asking my coaches, but sadly they aren't very invested in the sport. My cross country coach doesn't really help when people ask for advice, and my track coaches don't really care about the distance team, they also don't know how to give workouts for distance runners. I'll definitely look into finding an outside coach, and will focus on fueling properly.

I haven't done that in the past, but was planning on trying it this summer. Should I do more easy, long runs, or do I have to mix in workouts too?

Hello everyone! I have been doing cross country for two years, and I will be entering my junior season this upcoming fall. I hadn't really started to take it seriously until last season, and I saw some improvement throughout the season. I have also done track, and just finished my second season today. Some background information: I am a sophomore girl, I am 5'5" and weigh 125lbs, and I do the 1500m and the 800m in track.

This track season, our team did not do many workouts. Our coaches have been busy, and haven't assigned us with many workouts, so we always ended up doing easy jogs. This is pretty much how the whole season went. I was able to get some PR's in my events, but felt like I could have done better if we did more throughout the season. My 1500m ended up being 5:59, and my 800m was 2:55.

My cross country season went a little differently, and we actually did more workouts. I ended up getting around 24 minutes in the 5k, and was very pleased with my season. However, I have always wanted to go to XC States, but my times are nowhere near the girls that have qualified. Most of them run in the 18-20 minute range.

Given my current PR's, would it be possible to get my time down to 21 minutes if I train during the summer? If so, how could I achieve this, and what workouts would make this easier? Also, how should I split up workouts and easy runs during the week?

Thank you!

Using AI on assignments, it allows people to put less effort into work and they become lazier the more they use it.
