DARRYLXWF 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2004 Basically, in 7 days I have to participate in a long distance run. My question is, is there any point in doing a few jogs in the upcoming week? Like, will it actually help me lose a few seconds in my timing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted August 3, 2004 Oh, I thought this was like a regular team you were on. Stay hydrated, I guess. Running's running, you should know what to expect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lomasmoney 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2004 If you are doing like a 5 mile race or less just do some light distance work and some fast paced repeat miles and you will be fine, and to those who think running sucks, I disagree. I ran CC/Track in high school and during the running seasons, I never felt better in my life. I was in great shape, I ate better because let's face it pancakes, bacon, eggs, and two glasses of milk isn't the best thing for you when you are running anywhere from 5-15 miles that day. Running can be really good for you if you can be consiestient and set up a schedule Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2004 Do a bunch of flights of stairs, if you can find any. If your friends live in apartments, go up to the top floor and run back down a number of times depending on how many floors they have in the building.
