Experiment with changing your pace in those runs, especially long runs when you feel strong.

Hills are terrific for running
running jobs commitment
The most difficult part, when you decide to make running a part of your life style, is the basic initial commitment. Everybody says, 'I don't have the time.' It's up to you to say, 'I do have the time.' For me, beginning to run when I was a student was an ideal situation. However, I've also trained as much as 130 miles per week during periods when I worked a full-time job. It ultimately becomes second nature. It becomes a habit, a routine part of your daily life

Runners...you're competitive, but you want to have fun, too. You want to enjoy life. And runners really get to do that, I think-after we recover.

I can't even imagine what it's like to run for 5 or 6 hours.
running tasks marathon
Aiming for the marathon is a task of sorts which can include terrific highs and lows.
sports running simple
Running is a very natural activity. If you get too caught up, you find yourself constantly seeking to make running something that it isn't. You should let it be what it is - a very simple activity. Running has become too complicated for many people and they wind up turning sour on the sport, or losing the focus of their direction.
running believe shoes
I believe in gradual experimentation with running shoes.
