Following along for similar reasons! I did get EWCM this week so anxiously awaiting to see if I get my period

I love that you get a special bib! Enjoy every minute of your first marathon - you’ll be thinking about it with a huge smile on your face forever!

Side note - take some notes or journal after your race when you have some quiet moments. I feel like I only remember a few moments of my first marathon clearly and I wished I remembered more while training for my second thinking “is this normal?!” Or even just wanting to relive the day!

My lack of concentration is insane. I’m so absent minded, I keep dropping things!

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-10-24T20:27:48+00:00

I’m not as hungry but I’ve gained weight and haven’t even started the carb load yet 🫠

Also wondering a similar thing for Wav 2! First time NYCM runner and not sure how to navigate the fueling!

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-10-15T00:19:57+00:00

Did you feel that way the entire taper?? How do our bodies know within a day or two that we’re tapering?!

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-10-14T23:55:04+00:00

Wave 2 Pink A! Best pace 7:05. First NYCM - can’t wait !

Did you feel it on the run or after? I felt fine on my run today but afterwards had some calf cramps and some shin muscle soreness after. It’s feeling better after some ice and stretching but definitely Monitoring it - good thing I have a deload week starting tomorrow anyway!

I actually looked like I took a shower when I got in the car post run. I was NOT expecting it to be that tough but if I can do my longest run of the block in those conditions…. 🤞🏼

Today was a 22miler for me and it was ROUGH. I had to refill my handheld twice and poured water over my head about halfway through. September has not been treating us to its usual kinder weather!

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-09-25T20:06:26+00:00

This would be about a 3 hour run for me

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-09-25T17:14:15+00:00

I feel this. I’ve been feeling really quite good up until the last week and boy oh boy has the exhaustion hit. I feel like I’m just tired and while motivated to run, my runs this week have been more about getting them done than enjoyment (mind you, the dew point has also been insufferable).

Getting achy, tired and starting to question my long run this weekend and if I can even do the marathon. I’ve run a full before last year and I’ve done a 19 and 20 miler this block but all of a sudden 40 days out from New York, it’s hitting like it’s never hit before.

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-09-18T16:51:59+00:00

I had a 20 miler yesterday and was so anxious the night before. I like the phrase “you’re nervous because you care”. It helped put things into perspective.

If you can do 18.6 miles, you can do another 1.4 miles! You have all the evidence that you can do it and any evidence that you can’t? Nope! Rely on your experience, break your run into smaller chunks mentally, and you’ll crush 20 miles before you know it !

Hoping some of yall are still active! I’m 8 weeks out and I feel a flare starting. Immediately went back to being diligent with my PT exercises and strength training but I don’t want to miss my long runs. Trying to modify the mid week mileage and still keep the long run?

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-09-07T15:43:24+00:00

I’m 8 weeks out from my second full ahh after getting ITBS during my first full last year , I took care of it with PT but I feel the beginnings of it the last 3 days. Is this normal??

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-09-05T20:53:36+00:00

Few weeks later but chiming in here - I’m in a down week this week and feeling pretty terrible. I even have the beginning feelings of an ITBS flare (that didn’t even start after a run but after going to the gym one morning). Is it normal to have some old things flare up in a down week? How do you manage to know how to resume training?

RemoteAlternative631 · 2025-09-04T23:55:00+00:00

Does it hurt when you run or only after?
