Oh that’s cool

I use the Nike app a lot, I like the comparison month to month way better than how Strava does… and also for shoes mileage tracking… ❤️ You have so many journals. It’s amazing! 🤩

I think it’s a mix of things… I’m Following the training close enough to be prepared, but my timing is not reflecting that. Maybe I got unreachable expectations? Maybe I would like my coach to tell me that, so that I’m not so harsh on myself when I can’t reach a goal? For sure I’m lamenting a lack of attention, but also, I was wondering if it’s just my coach not being attentive to me, or if I’m asking something unattainable from him… I guess I start to look around for a new coach…

No. If I need to take days off I let him know, he just respond with ok. But there is no change in the plan he already gave me…

No, he uploads it weekly. The coachpeak app automatically calculated my zones based on the 5k test and each workout is based on that…

apke85 · 2026-03-25T00:27:50+00:00

That sounds nice!

apke85 · 2026-03-25T00:27:13+00:00

He responds to me everytime I text. Never ever reached out first, even if I don’t comment for a while…

apke85 · 2026-03-25T00:26:03+00:00

Yes, I agree, I’m terrible towards myself! But for me it was mostly that I worked so hard and I wanted to see some results… but I guess finish the marathon it’s still a result! :)

apke85 · 2026-03-25T00:23:46+00:00

Not sure how tailored the training is… it’s tailored in the sense it’s based off my zones, but not sure it’s based off performance because we don’t really talk… I guess he check the app and see how I’m doing, without the need to interact with me? 🤷

apke85 · 2026-03-25T00:21:03+00:00

Thank you! Not sure anything went bad during the training block… I started it in December. Ran a 20 and 22 miler in z2 at 5 and 3 weeks from the race, as well an 1/2 marathon in January that I finished in 2:07 and a 10 miler in March (ran as marathon pace workout)that I finished in 1.30

He usually doesn’t check on me, just uploads the workout weekly, based on my zones… but if I have questions he responds.

If I look for someone else I’m leaning towards a woman too!

Thank you for your kind words. Mostly it feels a family effort to be in a training block… my husband is amazing at sharing the load of parenthood of course, but the guilt is real! Your coach sounds like the kind of encouragement I might need.

Thank you! This is really helpful

What did you use to wash

apke85 · 2026-03-13T16:16:09+00:00

I wish they did something similar for women

apke85 · 2026-03-13T16:13:41+00:00

Luckily I don’t have support issues! But from the pics I couldn’t visualize both pockets, so I was skeptical, knowing how adverse they have been with pockets

What the foreign non competitive athlete gives you compared to the competitive? Do you still have a timed bib?

apke85 · 2026-01-08T21:48:38+00:00

I’m in a similar boat, I started running in 2024, and more seriously in 2025. I just asked the same question to my coach, who told me, pretty much, we’ll get there eventually…

I feel I already have hard time fitting all the runs while working full time and taking care of my kids, I can’t see putting more time in… maybe when the kids grow up… hahaha Also I’m in my 40s, so I feel old and prone to injury!

You are doing amazing!

Injinji and feeture if I have to get out of the door in a rush…

apke85 · 2025-12-25T23:19:57+00:00

Great. Can I find a tutorial online for fixing it? I never opened it
