Long Distance Running Tips from a Medaling Ultramarathoner

October 10, 2018 by Get Fit with Cedar 6 Comments

“It’s not about ‘how FAST can I do this?’, it’s ‘CAN I do this?’, even if you have already done it before.”

Long Distance Medaling Ultramarathoner Downhill

Today’s post is an exciting one and something I feel very privileged to share. It’s an interview with ultramarathon runner Koby Nelson, who has experience running races from half marathons to 50 milers. Not only has he run countless races, he’s managed to win some! When it comes to long distance running and trail running, Koby knows his stuff. And while he admits that he didn’t exactly have the smoothest entrance into long distance racing, he’s open to sharing the barriers that took him by surprise so that you know what to expect.

Thinking about running an ultramarathon or just running longer distance? From food to gear, Koby provides helpful insights to help novices and even seasoned long distance runners get prepared to have the best run of their lives.

Couch to 5k: How to Succeed

September 19, 2018 by Get Fit with Cedar 2 Comments

“There’s no feeling like finishing a 5k.”

Couch to 5k Run

Are you thinking about getting back in shape, but don’t know how to start? Have you made many resolutions and begun multiple exercise programs in the past, but not stuck with them?

You should consider running a 5k!

What’s a 5k, you ask?

A 5k is a 5 kilometer or 3.1 mile run, typically run as a road race. There are tons of them across the US all year long. They usually have a small sign-up fee, and are often held as fundraisers for charities, organizations, or in memory of someone. While some are more competitive, most will accept runners of all levels (and walkers if that’s more up your alley!).

The “couch to 5k” name in itself shows that this trend is a great first step for those looking to become more active and healthy. It’s an excellent goal to work towards. However, while many start training with the best of intentions, not everyone succeeds. Just because you have this objective doesn’t mean all your old barriers are going to disappear.

In order to help you cross that finish line, I’m providing my tips and tricks for new exercisers/runners. When you lace up your shoes and face that open front door, you’ll now have the ramp you need to hop those hurdles!
