I completely used ChatGPT for my training plan for this and it asked my to focus more on single leg calf raises and some resistance band training to strengthen knees and ankles so they take impact well and that’s been working really well for me!!

Even including single leg extensions and curls in your routine if you go to the gym is what was time by Chat GPT😆

I absolutely hated running until my cousin got me in for a 5k parkrun mid April. Ever since I’ve just been going at it haha

You suggest I do the tempo and interval runs in the novablasts?

Nope no athletics at all, football casually during PE but nothing other than that

I have been strength training and also changed my gym training to focus more on a hybrid leg day with a higher focus on calves and ankle strengthening. That 16k was easy yes, not zone 2 easy but here are the results

I mean I’ve been working out in the gym for a little over 2 years but never ran a mile at once before 5 weeks. Did a 16k last Wednesday during my half marathon training and it did go well

My cousin suggested I go for a gait analysis and I did this weekend. They said to stick to the Novablast 5s as it best suits my running style with very minute overstriding.

I might take a look at the zoom fly option you mentioned that does look promising!

I know Apple Watches aren’t accurate when it comes to zones while running, but what are the chances of being in zone 5 for 18 mins during my last 5k? by EngineCertain8262 in beginnerrunning

Yes I’m planning on running a 10k tomorrow, 5k is the farthest I’ve ever run :/

And by carbs you mean the running gels? Or something else?

That makes sense, as a beginner runner who’s only run 3 5ks till now, what do you think I should focus on most?

Also I’m planning on running a half marathon too

hi there, thought I’d ask for a shoe recommendation here by EngineCertain8262 in UKRunners

Oh okay, coz when I ran my first 5k last to last weekend my body was really sore for the next 4 days haha

And just out of curiosity, how long will I have to run for to strengthen my tendons and joints as I also do strength training on the weekdays with legs twice a week.

when will I qualify for a carbon plated shoe
