Week #5 Train With Lisa And Lucy

Everyone had a great run this week. We made it 3 miles! We are almost half way to 10K. Congratulations everyone. :)

Long run is 3.5 miles or the Swedish Summer Run 5K

Hey Lisa,

I just joined sweat.365 and have committed myself to begin training for a 5K. I saw your blog and thought it would be a great way to jump into it. I used to run long distance years ago, then lost the desire to run over weight lifting at the gym. I’ve been pretty much non-active for the last 4 years and want to get back to running. I signed up for a 5k race for August 16th and really need some virtual training to get me into the swing of things.

Looking forward to training, blogging and racing!

Hi Lisa, I notice that your info talks about running a 5K/10K but I am needing training advice on running a 1/2 marathon. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Lisa-
I’ve started training for my first 5K. I’ve been slowly easing myself into it, only running every other day and cross training on the days in between. But I’ve been experiencing shoulder pain in my right shoulder. It acts up when I’m like 10 minutes into my run. Am I running the wrong way??

I have been attracted to this post because my name is Lucy and I have signed up to do a 5K at the end of the month. I hate running though but I would like to be able to run most if not all of this race. I have no doubt I could walk the whole thing. I got some tips from my Ironman massage client that may help others just beginning. He suggested running very slow with the idea of maintaining. Thanks to that advice I went from not being able to run more than one block to running about two miles. Granted senior citizens were walking past me with their walkers, but I ran 2miles!!! The muscles you use are different than the ones you use for walking. I’m still sore from the run. Hope that helps.
