lestertheemt Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I am not a runner. Never have been a runner, but I have a goal to run 6 miles by the end of June. Any tips, suggestions, or other means of assistance would be greatly appreciated. Am I giving myself enough time to complete this very insane goal of mine? Thanks!

ghettooutlaw Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Go to The Runner's World 8-Week Beginning Runner's Training ProgramThis is an excellent 8 week program designed to get you running two miles at a comfortable 30 minute pace. Then you can move on to their Smart Coach tool for a more customized workout program. Let me know how it works out!In case the link above doesn't get you to the appropriate page, follow the instructions below.Go to runnersworld.com. Click on the TRAINING link at the top of the page. Click on BEGINNERS on the left side of the page and then click on GETTING STARTED. About half way down the page you will find the link "Beginner's Training Program".

althetrainer Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I was a long distance runner and I used to teach running classes at BYU. I know you made your post a while ago. But if you're still interested feel free to ask questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lestertheemt Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I am still running. Well maybe more like jogging. I am not up to 6 miles yet, so it doesn't look like I'll make my goal. ( ( But the fact that I am still doing it makes me happy!!! There is a 5k in August and I know that I will be able to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
