Im pushing to do a half marathon for the first time this year. This is only my second time running 10 or more miles. I getting there forsure hopefully we can have some none virtual races this fall my dictors state
Good for you Marcus...go for it. I've only run a couple marathons, but have probably done the half distance hundreds of times while just running for the pure joy of it. Get a good pair of running shoes and replace them long before you think they are worn out and your knees will thank you. My old shoes are then relegated to non-running activities. Make the time to run daily if possible, and stagger your routine; short, long, fast, slow, etc.

I switch my shoes out every 3 months or so and old ones become my gym shoes or elliptical shoes. I run every other day to give the knees a rest day. Off days i ride my bike.

10 miles? Dang bro, seriously impressed. I feel bad for you folks still pinned down under the Covid restrictions.
 
I had a fun ride last night, then came home to a dozen elk in the field and a couple of black bears on the hill side. a black and a chocalate. i could not tell if sow with a cub or a male and a female, they where 1000 yards out, but swaro 15x's get you close. the black one was big, defintately some distance between its ears.

Straight treadmill cardio this morning. I feel pretty good about my cardio condition. My wife did weight watchers before this pregnancy and lost 30lbs, she plans to pick it back up after the baby arrives. I decided to get ahead of the curve and jump on that treadmill too.
