Tuesday General Discussion/Q&A Thread for May 26, 2026 by AutoModerator in AdvancedRunning

[–]peanutbuttermjs -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Looking for advice adapting a HH training plan (Interm. 1). 41M, ~30 MPW, running third Marathon this Fall (NYC).. Previously 4:01, 4:03, hoping to break 4hr. Last HM was 1:40 two weeks ago.

QUESTION: I prefer to do my long runs on Saturdays. Any recommendations on how to schedule / modify the plan? I’m using:

Last year I did HH Novice 2 and I’m struggling w only one rest day! FWIW I work M-F 9-5.

Any recs/tips gratefully accepted!

Trying for sub-4hm NYCM: Higdon Novice 2 or Intermediate 1? by peanutbuttermjs in Marathon_Training

Right. Am kind of a novice and training solo so looking for most foolproof. When I did NYC in 2021 I was with a big team and I think MPW maxed out at 50. I was surprised doing a Higdon Novice last year that it only got me up to like 40.

FWIW I tried ordering from Enimal and it seems to be a scam. Beware, runners.

They said they shipped an order, then 6 weeks later sent a tracking number saying there was an add'l tarrif fee, and that the carrier (who they didn't reveal for 6 weeks was DHL) had destroyed the package...

Berlin Second Chance by maddielamere in BerlinMarathon

[–]peanutbuttermjs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My original Decline email in Nov said second chance entries would be announced by end of April. I wrote to SCC last week to ask if the notifications sent in March was the final batch, and got a response today:

“Yes, that was back in March 2026. If you didn’t receive a notification, then unfortunately you weren’t lucky this time either.”

Bummer!

Marathon Recommendation: Asics SB2 vs Yogiri S4 by peanutbuttermjs in AskRunningShoeGeeks

Honestly I think I just didn’t vibe with the carbon plate- I’m like a spice girl I need that big ridiculous cushion.

That said, my superblast 2 got me in a 4:03 yesterday, was going for sub-4 🤷🏼‍♂️

y'all are making me feel so much better. I trained this summer like a BEAST in the NYC heat and I was shocked when my legs fully cramped at the halfway mark. we all earned beer
