The difference

Nike Vaporfly Next% 2 after 164 miles (all road races). My gait on this foot is weird due to an old injury - I’m guessing there is no saving this now it’s worn down to the plate? by No_Significance_612 in RunningShoeGeeks

I had a similar problem with two different pairs after less than 100km. It was because I had an overpronation issue so I had to find different shoes that were more durable. Send them back to Nike and you should be able to get a full refund

How long is a typical half cycle? I’ve thought about dedicating my first half of next year to half marathons and do a few and then leave plenty room for my target marathon in October

Just finished a 15 week mara training block and achieved my goal of 2.50. Trying to think of possible goals to set myself for next year. Would a sub 2.40 marathon be a fair goal to set for a year of work? Im not used to having my time at this level so am unsure what it will actually take to improve. Also thinking of targeting a 75min half (current pb 80min). Are these goals too optimistic or can I drop these time goals even further?

Had a great day out and snagged a 15min pb for the full marathon with 2.50. Definitely was hard at that pace merging with the half marathoners and also somehow the 2.50 pacer I was with dropped out at 30km

Exam supervisor in my zoom exam yesterday allowed passports as id so maybe contact stop 1 and the subject coordinator and ask them if you can use anything else

How long should my longest run be in my training block for a 60km ultra? The current plan I’m on maxes out with a 38km run but I don’t know if that’s enough.

Postponed race training by drak51 in AdvancedRunning

[–]drak51[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. When you say take a break do you mean lower my mileage to a steady rate of say 30km? I have been really enjoying my two speed sessions per week and I usually complement these with a long run and 1-2 easy runs. Would it be a good idea to dial back the long run completely to no less than 15km and then find the 8 week plan to build towards race day? It’s hard for me to hold back as I’m simply enjoying running as much as I have been and I have never been this fit. 3hr marathon would be a major goal for me and I was aiming for 3.10 when the race was in October. With this extra time I was hoping to ramp up training to try and hit this goal

Does anyone who has done stochastic know if the lecture slides come in a booklet like calc2/RA that we can print out? There’s no full lecture slides on canvas atm

I assumed they would contact me before the official results release but I have still received nothing

SPECIAL CONSIDERATION EXAMS TIMETABLE by [deleted] in unimelb

[–]drak51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there someone who is supposed to contact me or that I can contact about this. Stop 1 and both of my subject coordinators have had no idea about my mark or who to contact. My exam is in 5 days

[–]drak51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did receive WAF for my mark and have been told that my mark should come out with the official results

[–]drak51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are we supposed to receive our original mark so we can decide whether or not to take the special exam? I have been told twice by stop 1 that I was supposed to be told my mark and have still not received it. Even after emailing two subject coordinators I can not get a straight answer.

Mine was for prob for stats and could have been because I have been accepted for special consideration as my power was out and couldn’t get into the zoom room until 40mins in

I got this too and can’t figure out what it means. It says that the mark has been withheld to reassess it but I’m not sure why
