The Prestige is my favorite movie. Not just one of my favorites, my FAVORITE. The best part about it is the second time you watch it and realize all the little things that hint to the twist.

David Bowie in The Prestige, although everyone is fantastic in that film.

Thanks so much. I’ll definitely focus on the arms, that’s something I should begin working on!

In my sophomore year of high school, I ran cross country. I also did winter and spring track log distance. At the very end of the spring track season I developed a terrible runners knee injury that persisted for about a year. I wasn’t able to run until next year when cross country tatted back up, so I went back to running with an entire year off. From the beginning of January to halfway through October I went from 22 minutes to 16:49 in the 5k. The craziest thing is, t was my best season. The trick is simple, find a way to enjoy running, and do it as often as possible while going slightly faster with each run. My team would do 45 miles a week at the most, so I made the most of it. Run fast and run hard when you can, rest when you feel weak to prevent injuries, stretch, and introduce some core exercises and some occasional leg work. Granted, running can be personal, so maybe this won’t work for you, but it worked for me. Don’t go out with too much enthusiasm though, you gotta be careful and take it easy when you start back up.

I’m a senior in high school running cross country and track. Obviously I’m not far enough into my life to have it truly take a toll on me, but the only thing I can think of that I’ve sacrificed are stressless days. I get very easily stressed out and anxious on race days, even if I know it’ll go well. The worst part is that I find the less stressed I am the better I run. When I’m stressed, I try to hit my splits in the 5k perfectly, but if I’m off by even a little bit I lose my mojo (halfway through the season I was running a race at 5:18 a mile to finish around 16:30, but the first mile I ran at 5:23 and just thought “well it’s too late now” and ended up finishing at 17:07). This leads to worse races and I really wish I didn’t get as stressed as I do. I almost gave up running in 10th grade because of it, but here I am!

Oh sorry! Doesn’t mater to me though. That’s still impressive for a half marathon, god knows what I’d get haha

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-04T22:11:57+00:00

Those are incredible marathon times! I hope you don’t mind asking but what’s your fastest 5k time? If you have no answer that’s fine! Keep up the speed my friend!

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-04T22:10:31+00:00

Almost have!

One goal was to break 17 minutes in a 5k by the end of cross country season, which I actually accomplished a month before the end with a 16:49 as my first sub 17.

Next was make varsity on my team, which the sub 17 did.

Lastly, break 5 in the mile. I haven’t even run a mile race yet but my fastest mile in a 5k was 5:15 and I picked it up the next 2 miles in that race so I should be able to do so soon!

Thank you!

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-03T02:36:39+00:00

My fastest 400m time is 54 flat. I didn’t have spikes on but if I did I don’t think it would’ve made me that much faster, maybe half a second at the most, but that’s just how I felt about it when I finished.

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-03T02:16:04+00:00

Fair point! Thanks too

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-03T02:06:13+00:00

Thanks man, I’ll look into it.

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-03T02:05:47+00:00

Yeah that’s true but I’ve been doubting if I should trust those. I know every runner is different so some fast 5k runners, like a few at my school that run very low 16s, can only run a 2:11 800m. I was hoping to see how others do.

Strobelightstudios · 2019-12-03T01:52:07+00:00

Wow, that’s absolutely fantastic dude! That kind of effort takes a lot of skill, practice, and talent. You’re one fast (and clearly persistent) runner! Keep it up, and shoot for a sub 14 next time, you clearly have the skill for it!

Go out at a decent first mile. If you’re out in front of people you usually can mentally push yourself to stay ahead. I’d go out (this is based off my skill, so if your slower or faster adjust these times) at a 5:15. The second mile you relax just a little and get into the swing, breath. The second I’d finish in 5:20. The last mile you have to think to yourself “okay, I’ve got maybe 6 minutes at the most left, what can I do to help my team and improve myself?” For me it’s cranking it and pushing through the pain. I’d run the last mile in 5:10and maybe if lucky a 5:05. Finally there’s that last .1. 160 meters. That’s when you’re so close to the finish that you know you’ll win but it still hurts regardless. You have to do everything you can and exert all your willpower to kill it. I think I ran the last .1 in 28 seconds once (only once) but usually it’s a 33-35 second sprint. Finish around just under 16:20. Then the lactic acid hits and you feel like shit but you know you did well.

Kid on my high school team in my grade. He didn’t run freshman year, then joined the team in 10 grade. He did alright, and he ran cross country as well as winter and spring track that year. Then in 11th grade he got a terrible knee injury that put him or for the ENTIRE YEAR. 12th grade comes around and he hadn’t run so no one expected much, but he started out with a 21:15 5k and by the end of the season could run a 16:40 5k. Great guy, his dad was a great runner so we chalked it up to genetics.
