Long runs / walking?

02-09-2005

To consider: for long runs, I may consider, run/walk. For instance, in an 8 mile scenario, you could easily run 5 miles and walk 3 (or better, yet, for 10 miles, run 5 and walk 5; at a high rate. . . essentially walk at 4mph (15 mpm) for remainder . . .

To consider: Also it will be much more helpful if I weigh less. . . I’ll be much more conmfortable (mentally as well as physically) to train during long runs at or below about 230 pounds. I can certainly run twice in one day to get longer runs (more miles) – but I suspect what that really does is reduce body fat / lost weight.
