Hey. I thought I’d give this a shot, just a general chat thread about running… eg. How was your run today, how are you tracking, how’s your training going for that race that you decided to go for etc… if it’s popular, maybe someone knows how to write a bot to post weekly or monthly? (I don’t)

    Dealing with shin splints for the first time in my life. This time last year I ran a sub-4-hour marathon and my overall volume has been way down since then so I’m really struggling to find a balance between enough running to keep me happy and satisfied without exacerbating the injury. It’s frustrating to see myself struggling with efforts that were once my easy days.

    I have 33 weeks until a 50k trail run, so hopefully that’s plenty of time to heal up and get back to a good training volume.
