He learned about zone 2 running. We all know the destructive power of even a few minutes of zone 3-4 running during a marathon! 💀

I also 3D print my participation medals. Less hassle, can do it from the couch.

I think that’s where the term “couch to 5k medal” comes from.

I should've trademarked that shit. Eh... too much effort.

I kind of regret signing up for so many virtual races after COVID. I was looking for some grittier 5k ultras and unfortunately the company I settled on awarded medals as NFTs rather than physical medals. I was wondering if I got a 3d printer or something if I could use AI to create physical versions. But I'm a runner, not a techie and that stuff is all French to me.

I presume these are 5k marathons? I’ve started commissioning 2 and 3k medals for sprint marathons. My medal collection is my self worth and haven’t got any for a while.

I see it took 14 years to recover from shin splints and learn to run in zone 2
