Starting Track

Hello everyone! I am quite new to the running but I decided to do track through my school to help my weightloss journey. Does anyone know much about the sport that would be helpful to know? Are the track meetings long and how intense do you think the practices are? Thank you and have a great day!

Half Marathon #3 Check

I have suffered many slipped disks in my back & SI joint issues. Never thought I would run again. Started in October 2020 & 2.5 years later I just ran my 3rd half! Until November 2020 I had never ran more than 5 miles & did my first 10K! I'm slow and steady and can't wait for my next race in September!

Might not sound like much but I'm slowly completing the workouts and feeling stronger. Working hard on better form right now so I don't aggravate the plantar fasciitis and shin sounds that made me stop running.

Back pain

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing back pain every time I run and it's limiting my fitness...
I broke my toe so I couldn't run for quite a long time, and now when I run my back hurts a lot (lower back). Would you have any idea why??
I looked it up, but there are a lot of different answers...

Morning run

Just me and the geese (and maybe 3 other people) before the Sunday crowds show up!
