Do you make friends on your runs?
Once a guy stopped me while I was running. He wanted to practice speaking English with me. We became friends, and now we hang out over icecream every once in a while.
Where I run, other people run and walk, hang out, and enjoy the riverside view. What goes on where you run? What's your local community like?
Day 8 of my efforts to run a marathon one day, found me running this evening along the Mekong river. A 4k run at 10k/h.

After about a week of recovery from some pain, I'm back at it by a night run, on DAY 9 of #running efforts till I run a #marathon!
The more I go longer distance, the more important it is to be mindful of your own body. As I've increase intensity of my exercises, some challenges have crossed my path: dehydration, weight loss, cramps, burnout.... But all of these challenges I'm learning to overcome.
One shortcut to learning and overcoming these challenges, is mentorship (the which I'm thankful is set to thrive on #Nostr): learn from people who been where you're trying to be.
