So, this is Literotica after all... Makes me wonder if any of you have any running-related sexy stories to share? Any adventures or stories worth mentioning?

This dwells on the swimming aspect of triathlonning, but it acknowledges running in one sentence of it. So I think it counts.

It was part of the 750 word (very short, not a full Literotica page long) event from a year or three ago. A dash, not not a marathon.

Training for marathon number 26 and I can't find the motivation. I should be at 30 miles per week, but have barely made it to 20. And I haven't done good speed work in a while.

What tricks do you play on yourself to get you back in the horse?

I found the method of alternating the weekly “long run” with one week a jump in distance, next week 4 miles shorter, then next week a jump further ahead of the previous long two weeks ago run helped me mentally. The longer run weeks I had the “I can do this!” mentality, then the shorter run weeks helped because they seemed so easy, compared to the previous week. Then repeat.

Did my first race in a year (following injury) on Sunday.
Just a 7 mile run, not my fastest but alot quicker than I expected.
I think it helped being distracted by some amazing looking arses in leggings and shorts and bouncing pony tails!

Amazing arses in leggings is what keeps me running!
Race days always make you go a bit faster and block out niggling injuries

Knocked out some cross training on my bike indoors, I’m addicted to Zwift racing. One week till my 10k race.

Hey all,

I've not been able to run since last October due to a persistent ankle injury. Really missing it, can I live vicariously through you lot?

 

[SunBuns]

Sorry to hear ironfan. Ice that ankle, it gotta be tough to not be able to get out and go. Hope you can soon.

I’ve got a running buddy now. Much more fun to shoot the shit than sloging miles solo. We are gonna go out for 10mi in the morning. Still below freezing, so gotsta bundle up! Here’s to fellow weekend warriors

That is a nightmare, I had a bad ankle a few years ago. I changed diet and swam for 6 months and back to normal. Have you been to physio?

You will smash it! I find marathons get a bit psychological around the 20 mile marker so close but so far. What time you going for?

You'll be so ready that lucky will be almost no factor at all. Just keep the mind right and you've got it.

Yeah, been having shockwave and massage on it. Almost there but a little stubborn swelling behind the achilles still.

Thanks for the advice I’ve heard a few people say they hit walls around mile 20-21. I’m hoping to break 4hrs

One last 5k easy run before 10k race on Saturday with green beer waiting for me at the finish line!

Now, thats the spirit!

 

[Ironfan]

Still no running due to my ankle but a 7.5km walk

 

[Dayhoosier]

Every bit you can do on your legs helps. Bet it felt great just to be out there!

It did, nice clear day as well

Rocked my 10k this morning. Finished 37 seconds faster than my goal time. Actually ran a 9:02/mile avg, really happy with that. A few green beers afterwards and it’s been a good day.

40 something runner in Western Canada here. I typically average about 30km (try and balance it with biking and xc skiing) a week and I do some trail running races in the summer. Trying to up my mileage to run a trail marathon later this summer or next.

 

[base10]

First 5k without stopping to walk in about two months. Very windy, but a good temp to run. So very happy with that. A bit on the slow side, but very happy to get through the full distance without having to take a break

Currently on Spring Break trip, training for my next half marathon resumes next week when I return.
