Forest Park Forever announces improvements for end of 2014

Walkers and runners in Forest Park will soon notice some changes There will be less chance

of getting lost Forest Park Forever and the City of St Louis announced July 15 that the City had begun in-stalling a visitor-friendly Park-wide way-finding system Park maps 239 new directional signs informational

kiosks and banners will assist the Parkrsquos 13 mil-lion annual visitors in navigating the Park About

one-fourth of the annual visitors to the park are estimated to come from outside the Saint Louis area and in particular need of direction The cur-rent number of signs will be doubled The signs have been designed to fit more pleasingly into the natural landscape of the park and to be more accurate and complete Twenty-five new kiosks will feature park maps on one side and informa-tion including historical vignettes on the other side Forest Park Forever and the City also an-

nounced the first phase of improvements to For-est Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains The facility improvements are targeted for comple-tion by December 2014 ldquoFor a runner hoping to stop amid the Parkrsquos 12

miles of recreational paths or a family needing a restroom break after an early spring picnic For-est Parkrsquos facilities have offered an underwhelm-ing and spare experience mdash or no experience at all The majority of the Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains close from October through mid-April having no heat source to keep them openrdquo said Stephen Schenkenberg of Forest Park ForeverThe Phase I improvements will begin at the

restroom near the Parkrsquos highly trafficked Hamp-ton Avenue entrance Plans call for heating the comfort stations for year-round operation as well as new bicycle racks new landscaping and expanded drinking fountains which will include both bottle fillers and pet bowl fountains The stations are to have increased accessibility for all which will include improved connections to the recreational paths Other facilities scheduled for Phase I work are on the north side of Steinberg

Skating Rink and the on Wells Drive east of the Government Drive In addition the restroom on Clayton Avenue just west of Aviation Field will receive critical upgrades Each location was chosen to serve quadrants of the Park cur-rently lacking year-round facilities ldquoTogether these projects will dramatically

improve the experience of millions of visitorsrdquo said Lesley S Hoffarth Forest Park Forever president and executive director ldquoThe top two requests we receive from visitors are to help them better navigate Forest Park and to improve our drinking fountains and restroom facilitiesrdquoForest Park Forever a private not-for-profit

organization was founded in 1986 to work in partnership with the City of St Louis and the Department of Parks Recreation and Forestry to restore maintain and sustain Forest Park as ldquoone of Americarsquos great urban public parks for the enjoyment of all mdash now and foreverrdquo The entities work together with the Forest Park Advisory Board to ensure that the projects are consistent with the spirit and intent called for by the Forest Park Master Plan (adapted from ldquoForever and the City Announce New Way-Finding System and Restroom Improvementsrdquo Internet press release by Stephen Schenken-berg Forest Park Forever July 15 2014)

athletes because it features five waves Elite Menrsquos and Womenrsquos Competitive Recreational and Kidsrsquo 14 Mile Dash Originally the Mack-lind Milersquos focus was to grow by attracting faster athletes but it has adapted to accom-modate the increased of popularity with the entire community Now roughly half of the event is made up of competitively registered athletes and the other half of recreational athletes ldquoThe Elite wave had 12 stellar athletes race

Nick Happe from St Charles was the Elite male winner with a time of 410 Lisa Carey took the title in the womenrsquos Elite wave with a time of 453 lsquoI really enjoy racing at the Macklind Milersquo said Carey lsquoThe course is nice and the crowd support and fans really pump you uprsquordquoldquoWhile the Elite wave is a fan favorite the Kids

14 mile dash might very well steal the showrdquo Jeffrey said ldquoOver 100 kids participated this year and earned finishersrsquo ribbons But no mat-ter which event you participated in or if you were just a spectator there was a lot of fun go-ing on The post-race party is always a favorite and this yearrsquos was the biggest ever Open to the public there were two giant- sized inflat-able playhouses for kids live music vendors games Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer or Smoothie King smoothies for participants and more ldquoJeffrey Promnitz director of event develop-

ment at Big River Running Company was first-time race director of The Macklind Mile this yearldquoMy goal was to bolster attendance which

we increased from 1100 to 1500 and to beef up the youth eventrdquo he said ldquoI would like long term for (The Macklind Mile) to be a [nation-ally] recognized 1-mile eventrdquo

Indy Mini-Marathon course gets thumbs up from Bernie Violand

Bernie Violand reported from the Indy Mini-Mara-thon which he completed May 3ldquoIf you are looking for a great half marathon within

driving distance of St Louis I highly recommend itrdquo he said ldquoIt is the largest half marathon in the USA and

this year there were 29000 runners It is named the lsquoMini-marathonrsquo which is misleading to us runners since it doesnrsquot really describe the distance but it is the name they have always used They have an Expo before the race which is as large as most mara-thon expos They do an outstanding

job of hosting the race This was the 38th year The race starts downtown At mile six you enter the Indy Speedway and do a complete lap around the track mdash 25 miles with music blasting over the speedway loudspeakers mdash before exiting and going back to the streets It ends in a beautiful park with lots of music food and activitiesldquoIt was one of the best half marathons I have ever

run and I plan to go back next year It is a fast course mdash mostly flat I ran 13121 and was able to win my age group They have a 500 Club because of Indy 500 The top 500 finishers receive a special medal I finished 457th so I received itrdquoThis summer Bernie has been running as well as

cross-training on the elliptical and stair stepper and regularly goes to Bikram yoga He has been training for a half-marathon in Fort Collins Colo this Septem-ber which he feels will be a particular challenge be-cause of the elevation

Steve said ldquoHaving just had another knee surgery four days before the race I had all I could do just to get out of the hotel and limp down to the finish line But my timing was perfect as Shalane Flanagan just finished when I arrived (109) Having turned my attention to timing races (MO Run Race Mgmt) I was watching the race with a different hat on ie observing how they handle the finish line times instant results etcrdquo

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

A s k S t y l e s

Forest Park Forever announces improvements for end of 2014

Walkers and runners in Forest Park will soon notice some changes There will be less chance

of getting lost Forest Park Forever and the City of St Louis announced July 15 that the City had begun in-stalling a visitor-friendly Park-wide way-finding system Park maps 239 new directional signs informational

kiosks and banners will assist the Parkrsquos 13 mil-lion annual visitors in navigating the Park About

one-fourth of the annual visitors to the park are estimated to come from outside the Saint Louis area and in particular need of direction The cur-rent number of signs will be doubled The signs have been designed to fit more pleasingly into the natural landscape of the park and to be more accurate and complete Twenty-five new kiosks will feature park maps on one side and informa-tion including historical vignettes on the other side Forest Park Forever and the City also an-

nounced the first phase of improvements to For-est Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains The facility improvements are targeted for comple-tion by December 2014 ldquoFor a runner hoping to stop amid the Parkrsquos 12

miles of recreational paths or a family needing a restroom break after an early spring picnic For-est Parkrsquos facilities have offered an underwhelm-ing and spare experience mdash or no experience at all The majority of the Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains close from October through mid-April having no heat source to keep them openrdquo said Stephen Schenkenberg of Forest Park ForeverThe Phase I improvements will begin at the

restroom near the Parkrsquos highly trafficked Hamp-ton Avenue entrance Plans call for heating the comfort stations for year-round operation as well as new bicycle racks new landscaping and expanded drinking fountains which will include both bottle fillers and pet bowl fountains The stations are to have increased accessibility for all which will include improved connections to the recreational paths Other facilities scheduled for Phase I work are on the north side of Steinberg

improve the experience of millions of visitorsrdquo said Lesley S Hoffarth Forest Park Forever president and executive director ldquoThe top two requests we receive from visitors are to help them better navigate Forest Park and to improve our drinking fountains and restroom facilitiesrdquoForest Park Forever a private not-for-profit

organization was founded in 1986 to work in partnership with the City of St Louis and the Department of Parks Recreation and Forestry to restore maintain and sustain Forest Park as ldquoone of Americarsquos great urban public parks for the enjoyment of all mdash now and foreverrdquo The entities work together with the Forest Park Advisory Board to ensure that the projects are consistent with the spirit and intent called for by the Forest Park Master Plan (adapted from ldquoForever and the City Announce New Way-Finding System and Restroom Improvementsrdquo Internet press release by Stephen Schenken-berg Forest Park Forever July 15 2014)

this year there were 29000 runners It is named the lsquoMini-marathonrsquo which is misleading to us runners since it doesnrsquot really describe the distance but it is the name they have always used They have an Expo before the race which is as large as most mara-thon expos They do an outstanding

job of hosting the race This was the 38th year The race starts downtown At mile six you enter the Indy Speedway and do a complete lap around the track mdash 25 miles with music blasting over the speedway loudspeakers mdash before exiting and going back to the streets It ends in a beautiful park with lots of music food and activitiesldquoIt was one of the best half marathons I have ever

run and I plan to go back next year It is a fast course mdash mostly flat I ran 13121 and was able to win my age group They have a 500 Club because of Indy 500 The top 500 finishers receive a special medal I finished 457th so I received itrdquoThis summer Bernie has been running as well as

cross-training on the elliptical and stair stepper and regularly goes to Bikram yoga He has been training for a half-marathon in Fort Collins Colo this Septem-ber which he feels will be a particular challenge be-cause of the elevation

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

Forest Park Forever announces improvements for end of 2014

Walkers and runners in Forest Park will soon notice some changes There will be less chance

of getting lost Forest Park Forever and the City of St Louis announced July 15 that the City had begun in-stalling a visitor-friendly Park-wide way-finding system Park maps 239 new directional signs informational

kiosks and banners will assist the Parkrsquos 13 mil-lion annual visitors in navigating the Park About

one-fourth of the annual visitors to the park are estimated to come from outside the Saint Louis area and in particular need of direction The cur-rent number of signs will be doubled The signs have been designed to fit more pleasingly into the natural landscape of the park and to be more accurate and complete Twenty-five new kiosks will feature park maps on one side and informa-tion including historical vignettes on the other side Forest Park Forever and the City also an-

nounced the first phase of improvements to For-est Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains The facility improvements are targeted for comple-tion by December 2014 ldquoFor a runner hoping to stop amid the Parkrsquos 12

miles of recreational paths or a family needing a restroom break after an early spring picnic For-est Parkrsquos facilities have offered an underwhelm-ing and spare experience mdash or no experience at all The majority of the Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains close from October through mid-April having no heat source to keep them openrdquo said Stephen Schenkenberg of Forest Park ForeverThe Phase I improvements will begin at the

restroom near the Parkrsquos highly trafficked Hamp-ton Avenue entrance Plans call for heating the comfort stations for year-round operation as well as new bicycle racks new landscaping and expanded drinking fountains which will include both bottle fillers and pet bowl fountains The stations are to have increased accessibility for all which will include improved connections to the recreational paths Other facilities scheduled for Phase I work are on the north side of Steinberg

improve the experience of millions of visitorsrdquo said Lesley S Hoffarth Forest Park Forever president and executive director ldquoThe top two requests we receive from visitors are to help them better navigate Forest Park and to improve our drinking fountains and restroom facilitiesrdquoForest Park Forever a private not-for-profit

organization was founded in 1986 to work in partnership with the City of St Louis and the Department of Parks Recreation and Forestry to restore maintain and sustain Forest Park as ldquoone of Americarsquos great urban public parks for the enjoyment of all mdash now and foreverrdquo The entities work together with the Forest Park Advisory Board to ensure that the projects are consistent with the spirit and intent called for by the Forest Park Master Plan (adapted from ldquoForever and the City Announce New Way-Finding System and Restroom Improvementsrdquo Internet press release by Stephen Schenken-berg Forest Park Forever July 15 2014)

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

Forest Park Forever announces improvements for end of 2014

Walkers and runners in Forest Park will soon notice some changes There will be less chance

of getting lost Forest Park Forever and the City of St Louis announced July 15 that the City had begun in-stalling a visitor-friendly Park-wide way-finding system Park maps 239 new directional signs informational

kiosks and banners will assist the Parkrsquos 13 mil-lion annual visitors in navigating the Park About

one-fourth of the annual visitors to the park are estimated to come from outside the Saint Louis area and in particular need of direction The cur-rent number of signs will be doubled The signs have been designed to fit more pleasingly into the natural landscape of the park and to be more accurate and complete Twenty-five new kiosks will feature park maps on one side and informa-tion including historical vignettes on the other side Forest Park Forever and the City also an-

nounced the first phase of improvements to For-est Parkrsquos restrooms and drinking fountains The facility improvements are targeted for comple-tion by December 2014 ldquoFor a runner hoping to stop amid the Parkrsquos 12

driving distance of St Louis I highly recommend itrdquo he said ldquoIt is the largest half marathon in the USA and

this year there were 29000 runners It is named the lsquoMini-marathonrsquo which is misleading to us runners since it doesnrsquot really describe the distance but it is the name they have always used They have an Expo before the race which is as large as most mara-thon expos They do an outstanding

job of hosting the race This was the 38th year The race starts downtown At mile six you enter the Indy Speedway and do a complete lap around the track mdash 25 miles with music blasting over the speedway loudspeakers mdash before exiting and going back to the streets It ends in a beautiful park with lots of music food and activitiesldquoIt was one of the best half marathons I have ever

run and I plan to go back next year It is a fast course mdash mostly flat I ran 13121 and was able to win my age group They have a 500 Club because of Indy 500 The top 500 finishers receive a special medal I finished 457th so I received itrdquoThis summer Bernie has been running as well as

cross-training on the elliptical and stair stepper and regularly goes to Bikram yoga He has been training for a half-marathon in Fort Collins Colo this Septem-ber which he feels will be a particular challenge be-cause of the elevation

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

driving distance of St Louis I highly recommend itrdquo he said ldquoIt is the largest half marathon in the USA and

this year there were 29000 runners It is named the lsquoMini-marathonrsquo which is misleading to us runners since it doesnrsquot really describe the distance but it is the name they have always used They have an Expo before the race which is as large as most mara-thon expos They do an outstanding

job of hosting the race This was the 38th year The race starts downtown At mile six you enter the Indy Speedway and do a complete lap around the track mdash 25 miles with music blasting over the speedway loudspeakers mdash before exiting and going back to the streets It ends in a beautiful park with lots of music food and activitiesldquoIt was one of the best half marathons I have ever

run and I plan to go back next year It is a fast course mdash mostly flat I ran 13121 and was able to win my age group They have a 500 Club because of Indy 500 The top 500 finishers receive a special medal I finished 457th so I received itrdquoThis summer Bernie has been running as well as

cross-training on the elliptical and stair stepper and regularly goes to Bikram yoga He has been training for a half-marathon in Fort Collins Colo this Septem-ber which he feels will be a particular challenge be-cause of the elevation

Steve said ldquoHaving just had another knee surgery four days before the race I had all I could do just to get out of the hotel and limp down to the finish line But my timing was perfect as Shalane Flanagan just finished when I arrived (109) Having turned my attention to timing races (MO Run Race Mgmt) I was watching the race with a different hat on ie observing how they handle the finish line times instant results etcrdquo

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

A s k S t y l e s

The one and only Mr Styles

When should I replace my shoes

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

A s k S t y l e s

The one and only Mr Styles

When should I replace my shoes

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

A s k S t y l e s

The one and only Mr Styles

When should I replace my shoes

Need race day advice Want to know how to prevent embarrassing marathon mishaps Just want to annoy someone with random inquiries

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

A s k S t y l e s

When should I replace my shoes

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Q Hey Styles is it smart to run a marathon on one week of real training - Matt G

A Well I wouldnrsquot recommend it So smart no but doable if you are an experienced runner and pre-pared for the hurt Just remember the consequenc-es could be greater than the medal at the finish You could end up on the shelf with an injury if you are not properly prepared However if you must take it easy and throw away any time-related goal Try to have fun and use the experi-ence as a starting point for some real training for a future event

Q Hey Styles my running shoes have about 900 miles on them when is the right time to replace them - Gerald J

A For some real advice head to your local running store and consult an ex-pert From my experience an everyday training shoe should last 300-500 miles I think your running style and the surface you run on also may play a role in how long they last I typically rotate 2 pairs of shoes and try to get between 400-500 on each I can start to see the wear on the bottom as well as other certain ar-eas based on my stride I will usually feel my legs particularly my knees getting a little achy when

my shoes are worn down Next time you buy shoes keep track of the miles you put on them and then use that as a gauge going forward

Q Hey Styles what are your thoughts on drinking a beer during a marathon ndashJohn F

A If you want to enjoy a cold one late in a race I say go for it If you are chasing a goal then I would certainly skip the beer station I think it is all a matter of what you want to get out of that particular race If you are just running for fun and want to get a start on the afternoon party then have a small drink If you are looking to PR BQ whatever then say ldquono thank yourdquo and wait until you cross the finish line before you start to party I am no doc-tor never played one on TV or stayed

at a Holiday Inn Express for that matter but I have to imagine that running for that long and alcohol canrsquot be the best

combination So if you do plan to have a beer please be sure you arenrsquot already loopy and be careful

Disclaimer Styles is not a professional He is a just a guy that likes to runhellip every dayhellip sometimes twice For professional help

please contact a running coach local running store physician and of course the Google

A s k S t y l e s

The one and only Mr Styles

When should I replace my shoes

Need race day advice Want to know how to prevent embarrassing marathon mishaps Just want to annoy someone with random inquiries
