Favorite marathon training?? Was it Don Fink?

guest — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 15:45:10 GMT

A friend of mine just suggested the Don Fink marathon training program and I wanted to see if anyone had used it and had any success? I read some stuff on the Hanson's training program in runners World and was interested if others has success with this one as well. I would like to choose a new plan that is aggressive and gets good results. Please let me know your experience! I truly appreciate the input and hope for new success stories

Any feedback on the Nike Vomero 6??

guest — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 21:31:47 GMT

I'm looking at switching from Newtons to the Nike Vomero 6's and wanted to see what other runners think of them. I was always used to running in Mizunos prior to the Newtons but my local store had me try on these new Nikes...and I absolutley loved how they felt. I have a wider foot and never wore Nikes because they were always too narrow but these we much wider and were so cusiony. Just wondered what others that have been running in them think? Are you running longer distances in them too? Let me know what you think

Thanks!

Check out Yurbuds (you can get them online or best buy, etc)! They are awesome!

Re: How often do you get new orthodics

Hi catwoman- 7 months is definitley way too early to replace custom orthotics! what you may want to do is go back and see your doctor or whomever put you in the orthotics. They may need to make small adjustments. Also another issue that can arise is that your shoes are too worn in a certain spot causing some imblance... so defintlety go check them out. Hope it clears up. I know its frustrating, especially with the price you paid for them!

Re: Need... water...

Erin...definitley stay hydrated all the time but for your runs...either get a fuel belt, run with a regular water bottle (like a nestle, poland springs) or plan out your routes in parks and areas where there are already water stops (or just hide your drinks on your course somewhere). Many people I know just run with a water bottle- it may take getting used to but it works for some! Good luck finding what works for you!
