Ran 46 minutes today(galloway method)

Quoted message said:

No pain. I have to admit I get awfully high when I run. Right from the
start. I guess I shouldnt play music. I never stop for a rest if
anyone is around. I always rest when no one is looking. I guess I will
keep pushing my limit until I start to hurt a bit.

What's the galloway method?

A few runners (?) have left the group recently after fixating on such
a few minutes and a few heartbeats. They may be back on the couch
eating ice cream as they both were before coming here.
If you can run 40 minutes like your other post and 46 minutes when
there's a chance of being embarrassed by someone noticing a break, you
are obsessing on time.
Get a grip on it man. Run or don't run. Pick a time or distance and
just do that. You should find that taking your mind off of yourself
and just going for it will be much easier.

More than likely on the couch with their shrinks.

Try that while masturbating, and everyone will be a lot happier.

I'd like to back this up as being one of those runners who obsessed over
minutes, seconds and every other minutia related to running. I am a new
runner, and started this year with the goal to have 9 minute miles and to be
able to run a marathon. I trained to the point that I was injured and hated
running. I took a break from serious running, did some biking instead to
recover from my running injuries. When I came back to running, I was slow
and steady, but enjoyed the experience much more. I recently completed my
first half marathon, with no injuries, and look forward to many more.
Sometimes it's hard to get over the numbers, but in the end, you just have
to run for the fun of it.

90 percent of people are slow naturally because they are lazy. the
only lesson is that A-type personalities have to find a way of going
slow , at least in the beginning. I always watch the numbers to make
sure Im not going to fast. No, it is not about enjoying. it is about
winning and getting in shape.

Run a kilometer and than walk for a minute. repeat. I get to say i ran
46 minutes and it is harder to overdo it this way. I probaly should
just cut my speed back 10 percent but this method feels better because
I can actually increase my running time.

I would need an operation on my brain to not care what people think.
Seriously, I have a problem forcing myself to run at a pace slow
enough so I dont hurt myself. If I see a pretty girl, I cant help but
run fast even if it is time for me to stop my run.

other than myself. And it is enjoyable if you enjoy feeling your body
in tip-top shape. At bottom, it's about enjoying it, mostly that
exhilarated feeling you get once you're finished for the day.

i'm kind of skeptical. wouldn't you need an aerobic base to use this
it looks like a cross between intervals and negative splits. Also
wouldn't speed work have the same amount of effect?

Actually, the run/walk technique was adapted (some use another term, but
I don't want to bias you too much) by Galloway from a respected
ultrarunning approach used by most ultrarunners (except maybe Matt
Carpenter and a few others). It does provide a break for muscles being
used and may provide a lower-hr break for consuming food and fluids.
Most will hike the ups, run the flats and downs in non-track ultras. The
timed run/walk is more common on tracks and relatively flat, easy
footing races. It's more energy efficient to hike the big hills
(mountains) that occur in many trail races, like ultras - and that's
true for elites as well as mortals. Run/walk is a way of managing energy
and muscle usage to be out there longer.

Run/walk is also used by beginners or slower runners, people rehabbing
after injuries, etc. It provides a really useful way of getting more run
time in a workout. It also provides a way for some "couch to marathon in
4 month" pgms to have someone complete a marathon. Yes, the same as
intervals with the run being the "quality" part and the walk being the
"recovery". It can be used or abused. And some people can run/walk
faster than they can run.

Galloway has taken run/walk concept and commercialized it with his
books, training pgms, and schedules. They may do their run/walk with the
timers set on their hrms, and I've heard drives people around them nutty
with the synchronized beeps. He also makes some claims that may or may
not be true. Where some of the discussion occurs is when a fast runner
walks briefly in an aid station for fluids. As you've seen on the
Galloway charts, I don't think he even goes out to the 25 min run / 5
min walk that some ultrarunners may use in 24-hr races. It can be a good
way to start and allow less experienced / slower folks to do marathons,
esp. if they're raising money for a charity.

Take a look at this forum, in particular the thread about "does the
Galloway program work" (I haven't read most of it, but figure there
should be a concentration of issues there)
http://tinyurl.com/2dbkme
Note the CR note of that forum: "This is our only commercial forum
moderated by CR and the staff from Jeff Galloway productions. Feel free
to submit training related comments. The responses will probably be
related to the products and services offered by Jeff Galloway productions."

You can google for more.

Running and golf have this in common: your competition for the day is
yourself and the course. Nothing else really matters.
