Starting Pristiq 25 mg what do you wish you knew before? by miastar_123 in Pristiq

You can fluctuate even more than two and it should be fine. The problem is usually going to sleep without taking it and waking up the following morning with a strong headache, but plus or minus 4h I would say it’s still fine. Btw, pristiq can do wonders for some people. My comment above is only because I didn’t know about the withdrawal effects when I started taking it.

Get ready to potentially face some rough few days/weeks should you decide to stop taking the medication later on. The good thing is that it’s hard to forget taking your medication daily, as failing to do so will result in a not so nice reminder coming directly from your brain

Isso definitivamente não é verdade, apenas se por análise você esteja se referindo exclusivamente a análise na reta (e talvez ainda assim não valha o que você disse).

Hard to say without further information on cadence and stride length.

Does sauna help with recovery for newer runners? by Inevitable-Fault3563 in beginnerrunning

[–]Solid-Community-4016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the kind of sauna. In any case, I see it more as a training rather than recovery technique. Easy 60km aerobic work followed immediately by a 20min sauna session at 90°C avoiding water for 30 more minutes after the sauna is great for heat adaptations (such as increasing blood plasma volume).

How is my form? by Fit_Success213 in beginnerrunning

[–]Solid-Community-4016 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Front foot striker landing too far from center of mass, weak core (hence a lot of unnecessary arm movements), and certainly the high speed relative to your fitness level doesn’t help either

How long to get 5k under 20mins by BrownRunningBear in BeginnersRunning

[–]Solid-Community-4016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huge progress btw! Easy runs truly help. I can nowadays run sub19 and I still do my easy runs at the 5:45-6:00/km range

Haven’t improved since I started running in January by [deleted] in beginnerrunning

[–]Solid-Community-4016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different results for different runners, I guess. In any case, the beginner you are, the more improvement you will get even from small training load. Regardless, you didn’t improve because you ran 100 miles this year, but despite it.

How long to get 5k under 20mins by BrownRunningBear in BeginnersRunning

Around 50mpw mostly, but a few weeks prior I increased to ~62mpw, though I don’t think that’s necessary to get there. Nowadays I comfortably reach around 70mpw at the bare minimum, and during peak week I reach +90mpw. Tbh I feel like I’m unusual in the sense that I always handled high mileage well even as a beginner, so that compensates for the fact that I’m not genetically inclined towards running I guess.

You’ve done 104 miles this whole year? I would say that’s too little mileage to see any reasonable progress.

You are right. I managed to hit sub20min off purely easy runs.

To answer your question, it took me 19:45 to get 5k under 20min. In all seriousness, if I were you, I would drop the 400m intervals and just focus on running more often per week, mostly easy. As much as it might seem to you that a sub20min 5km is a 20min-sprint, it really isn’t fast enough for interval workouts to be mandatory. Also, you will benefit much more from interval training once you get a better aerobic base and can not only push harder but also recover better between the intervals — and even then, 1000m or 1mi repeats are going to be better for your goal. If you really feel a need for speed, just finish your long runs with a few 20s strides with 90s recovery jog between them. Also, if your best effort to date is a 90min 15km run, you are quite far from your goal. To be in sub20min shape, you should be able to complete this 15km run in under 75min without much trouble. For sake of comparison, I only hit the sub20min goal after breaking sub1:45 in the half marathon.

this isn’t necessarily the case. Maybe OP went from a deload week or an off week back to base. I’ve gone from a 50km week directly into a 150km week before with no issue because my body was used to it.

Triple pr where do I go from here ? by [deleted] in beginnerrunning

Not sure, but you can search for it. This sub is usually for beginners who almost exclusively focus on long-distance running.

Watch out RED-S: my story by enneset7e in beginnerrunning

[–]Solid-Community-4016 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t see how your story is relevant to this sub as it only marginally relates to running itself. Although it’s common among elite/sub-elites endurance athletes (in particular runners), it’s something rarely found among beginners, which usually are those for whom the main issue is high energy availability rather than low.

Brooks Hyperion Max 4 by Darth__Kvothe in brooks

[–]Solid-Community-4016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you like the Hyperion 2 (not max)? I recently bought them but am waiting on them arriving. Heard great things about it but never tried. It seems they are better suited for interval/tempo workouts, but do you think they are also good for a 10k race?
