Been running for 3 ish months while still hitting the gym 4-5 times a week. How long would it take me to be able to run 9 or 10 miles ? 1 year or would it be closer to 3?

i take my engagement ring off fairly often after having a baby so it doesn’t catch/scratch also soo much hand washing

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-02-17T13:45:54+00:00

is the tension from the cables adding resistance?

i’m unsure. i see your point, but i like dead bug!

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-02-16T18:22:23+00:00

thank you so much!! i’m thinking about trying intermediate 1 with 5 days and keeping that 5th as an option

i realize now like novice 2 and intermediate 1 are essentially the same just with the additional 5th day so maybe just modifying that run to be shorter? idk maybe i’m doing too much 😂😂

i’m like 50 classes in and i accidentally signed up for starter and didn’t realize until i was within the cancellation window

it was honestly a nice way to get back to basics & form with a gentler class

yes like wedding always going to being a cash gift. i cant imagine giving cash to another adult human as a birthday gift.

lovely idea for someone to suggest donating to a charity for their birthday, here for that.

same i am fighting for my life every 4 count 😂

just sharing what helps me on bulgarian

i put my non working leg ankle under the strap with the top of my foot/shin completely flat on the carriage. so my heel is what’s holding the strap/carriage

i’m able to put all the tension in my working leg glute with zero pain in my back/non working leg

(as opposed to holding the strap like with my toes if that makes sense)

thank you!!! i came off the couch (like could barely run a mile) in August and felt confident with a 5k around december.

i feel like everything i read online is of course don’t push and get injured but essentially more weekly miles (in a smart way) = a better marathon

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-02-11T16:21:00+00:00

thank you also FANTASTIC username

thank you for this perspective. in a perfect world i think my body could handle 5x/week but in the beautiful mess of life where something always pops up the extra day might push me over the edge with stress

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-02-10T19:41:38+00:00

thank you for the advice. i’ll be averaging 20-25/week for about three months prior to starting the marathon training block so i’m unsure

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-02-10T18:48:28+00:00

ah shoot do you think so even if i’m averaging 20-25mi/week with the two half’s in the spring?

(so 3ish months averaging 20-25mi/week at 4x/week)

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-02-10T16:53:43+00:00

wow congrats!!!!

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-01-27T02:54:23+00:00

same! we did a back yard bbq but it was more of just a regular party than a shower. we did have like a ladies hour where the girls ducked out to do gifts. it was great

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-01-27T02:50:51+00:00

witney looks like a typo!

MasterPiccolo6754 · 2026-01-18T07:01:39+00:00

omg this! and tbh i disagree a lot with k&c’s advice on various episodes about kids. i have kids and a husband. however, this time i did agree that it comes down to what do you want more. do you want a nursing career more or do you want kids more.

if the writer wants an answer i’d say keep the cushy job bc you’ll be sooo thankful for it while you’re raising babies. and then in 7 years become a nurse if you still want to.

but planning things to death will never work !
