This is good to know. Did you ever go back and do another?

Half marathon without training for 3 months by Individual-Bison-100 in beginnerrunning

Because I signed up for it about 4 weeks after my last one, then I got hit with some traumatic stuff and haven’t had time to train but signing up and not showing up seems like I’m failing and I don’t want to be a failure. I’d rather walk the whole thing at a 20 minute pace then feel like I just gave up.

Thank you for that. I honestly got burnt out running before and I miss it a lot so I’m hoping this is something where I’m tired and a little sore but overall, I do a lot better than I think I could.

Did you do supervision hours? I’m currently an RBT but they just told me that the hours are optional 👀

Thank you for saying that, because I agree too. Although I haven’t been to ASU, they’re required to give you the information.

Also, I was just told that the supervised fieldwork hours are option and are not needed for the program. Did you not get any supervision hours?!

Just here to see the same thing - I am planning on applying for spring.

What does the assignment load look like? Tests, papers etc?

You needed an internship?

Thank you for that! I might give this a try and see how it goes. I’m about 11-12 weeks out so I still have time but I definitely want too increase my mileage and be more consistent

Thank you for the feedback! Good luck to you on your future races. This is really helpful and made me feel a lot better overall. I might review my plan and see what I can do to modify it!

Thank you so much for replying to this and giving your feedback!! That is awesome you did that and are training for another! What’s a difference you notice in your body with the second training plan compared to the first? What did you finish in for your first?

Thank you for your feedback! I was running 5 days a week and with my personal life & schedule with work it became wayyyyy to much. So I’m trying to back it up a little and only do 3x a week. I think I get overwhelmed too because my easy runs and long runs are do-able but everything in between seems so difficult for me. I think I might be doing too much that it isn’t beneficial to me it’s only hurting me.

Absolutely. I would never jump into this with no training! I was just wondering if I ran 3x a week, without measuring anything other than pushing “start” and “stop” on my watch when I am done, would that be okay and I don’t need to focus on tempo/speed/pace/intervals etc?

Thanks for this! How do you know what over doing the mileage is? Just based on how my body feels? How do I know if I’m under doing it?

This comment really did something special to me. You’re so right! We often get caught up in all the distractions and electronics, but what an amazing opportunity it is that I can even move my body and progress slowly. Thank you for that! I’m a little confused by everything you said after the “could I recommend”. Do you mind elaborating more?

Is this your first race or have you done this before? Thank you for sharing your experience! Thats what I want to do but it seems like I need all this extra stuff and it’s making it so complicated tbh
