apologies to coach bennett for not running this at regular long run pace as requested, but I was listening to Kesha so it couldn't be helped

Fair to say the running addiction has officially kicked in. Used to question anyone running under the sun at midday, but just did my first 5k on my lunch break. All thanks to NRC, I went from barely managing 1 km two weeks back to 5.37 km today. Up the progress! 

Managed to do my first speed run yesterday and i’m quite happy with the overall stats. From a no runner to running at least 3 days a weeks is a huge accomplishment for me for my health.

My target is to at least be able to run in zone 3-4 and do a 5K under 20m that will be awesome.

Baby step at a time.

Started a couple weeks back. I also don’t get my distance displayed on my lock screen. Tried deleting and redownloading, I have the most updated version and live activities are switched on.

I was having trouble finding run clubs around me, so my friend and I made an interactive map to chart them all!

The project began as less interactive map we built while we both lived in San Francisco. My friend moved to LA and we spruced it up and expanded it to include LA + Inland Empire.

We manually curated the list of clubs, but we automatically pull club avatars and recent pics from IG to bring color to club descriptions. We also add some sample routes from clubs we’ve run with in the past to give an idea of the types of runs and how fast a club typically runs.

The discovery map is also integrated into some tooling we've been working on to help better manage our own group runs. Club organizers we’ve spoken to have complained that there isn’t a good way to schedule multiple routes for a single meetup. There's native support for this and we included a way to set a pace for each route. During the meetup, club members have the option to share their live location with the group (using our "Twitch for runners" tool), so if you are running late, you can catch up with everyone else.

I started and finished a run on my apple watch as usual, but when i checked the nrc ios app, it does not show up. There’s also no sync logo in the 10.00km on the apple watch. Refreshed both . Restarted both devices. Requested credentials again from debug mode. Can anyone help me before i go crazy? I’ve been using this app for 6 years and hate to want to switch

Prior to yesterday, 10km was the longest distance I’d ever ran. I’m doing the HM plan, yesterday’s run was supposed to be another 10km, but I ended up going 10mi instead! I felt good at the 5 mile mark and decided to stretch the run. Started running out of steam around mile 9 mark, but at that point, how could I not??

I’ve been feeling rather intimidated by the longer distances coming up on the training plan, but all of that fades away as I now know I can do it! The incredibly daunting goal of reaching half marathon distance doesn’t seem so far away.

Still somewhat in shock of what I achieved yesterday, and oh so proud! And now off to enjoy a well earned rest day.

It’s the weekly challenge … but I’m not sure what the 5k challenge is actually counting 😅

I left the challenge and joined again – same error. 10k and 15k are working fine.

Just confused.

Any tips to improve will be appreciated

Ran a steady 10:30-11:00 the first 3.5 miles, then walked most of mile 5-6. Ran the last two miles running on nothing but gas 🫩. Still happy though, I feel really accomplished. Eventually, I’ll be able to run this length with no stops between 🥳
