I got to the point where I was doing 5 min run, 2.5 min break, 8 min run, 3 min break, 5 min run. something like that at least. I promptly got shin splints and didn't run again for a week then found out I was pregnant, which was a nice excuse to not run again ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969927 Sun, 28 Jul 2013 01:01:32 +0000 HLK208 969927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did 6.3 miles today without feeling tired at all! The beginning of June, I could barely run a full mile...which is sad because I use to be a great runner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969872 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 23:41:48 +0000 PointeShoesTutus 969872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably a few minutes? I can't even use being pregnant as my excuse. I have never, ever been a runner. I was a dancer and my knees are just not cut out for running. Heaven help me if I ever have to outrun someone trying to do me harm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969824 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 23:00:00 +0000 Sapphiresun 969824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha... running... </p> <p>I think at the moment I could make it maybe 100 meters if I really had to... but I'm 38 weeks pregnant.</p> <p>But before I got pregnant, I could easily run a 10k straight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969719 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 21:56:22 +0000 skibobrown 969719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well I ran 3 today, so at least that much! I've been trying to get back into running lately, but it's hard b/c usually I have to run with the jogging stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969675 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 21:41:45 +0000 Mrs. Bee 969675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i hate running!!! but when i'm in shape i can run for an hour easily -- runner's high! not sure the distance, but i keep a steady pace the entire time.</p> <p>unfortunately i'm almost always out of shape. i did run recently when i was late meeting some friends -- made it 4 blocks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969668 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 21:39:48 +0000 Littlebit 969668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A couple months ago I had worked my way up to 4.5 miles...and I was NOT a runner. Since the summer though, I've fallen off the wagon and haven't ran in about 6 weeks. It's just too hot outside! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969631 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 21:26:35 +0000 MsMamaBear 969631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just started, so I'm at 5 minutes before I have to walk. I do a run/walk thing right per my trainer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969563 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 21:05:22 +0000 MsLipGloss 969563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: I was training for a marathon when I started law school . . . I never finished my training though (school just took over). I think my average long run was 12ish miles? It didn't take long to realize that that kind of mileage (I was averaging 30-40 miles a week)can take a toll on your body! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969554 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 21:01:33 +0000 deactivated_account 969554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can run 5 on a treadmill with at least three trashy magazines to look at and zone out on. But I really have a hard time running outside. This causes me a HUGE problem.</p> <p>DH is graduating from the sheriff's academy in a couple of weeks and he has some kind of "hot dog run" (sounds lame) that is like a 5K and the families and whoever can run behind them. The guys run about an 8 minute mile. I would fall out of formation pronto! I thought about taking a leave of absence from work to try to get my a** into gear. But basically, I just don't want to run in it. Can't I just stand on the sidelines and wave a flag or something? Thanks for listening... pitty party over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969535 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:55:32 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 969535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: @Mrs. Pen: if my Spanxx aren't clean, I can't use the treadmill that day. I can't handle the jiggle.</p> <p>I can run like a mile? I have always been an interval runner.<br /> I run a mile, walk a min or two, and then go back to running.<br /> I have NEVER been able to just and run and run without breaks.<br /> I feel proud of myself for any time I put in working out ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969532 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:54:28 +0000 hilsy85 969532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: ah I totally get into competitions with the ppl on the machines next to me!</p> <p>I think I could run about 3 miles now if I paced myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969531 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:54:23 +0000 IRunForFun 969531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now? Probably 12 miles or so. I've run 26.2 miles without stopping in the past though! :wink: I'm not in that kind of shape at the moment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969529 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:54:10 +0000 chopsuey 969529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: haha someone was running next to me and I ran a little longer even though my vag bone started hurting because I didn't want him to think I was a wimp too!<br /> @Mrs. Pen: omg I really enjoy the jiggling feeling for the same reason! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969527 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:53:34 +0000 Foodnerd81 969527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a block if I was about to miss the bus?? </p> <p>But to be fair, I *am* 9 months pregnant. Even before I'm more of a run/walk person (run 3 min walk 1 or whatever). </p> <p>@chopsuey119: It's smart that you listened to your knees. You also can develop shin splints really quickly and you'd have to stop for a while for them to heal. Of course, I'm all about "listening to my body" when it means I can stop exercising sooner... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969523 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:52:29 +0000 Mrs. Pen 969523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: when I run and feel my fat jiggle I feel like it's just being jiggled right off my body hahaha. it works in my head :-P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969518 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:51:06 +0000 MsLipGloss 969518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About a mile . . . although it is certainly not nearly as fast as I was pre-pg. The only reason I ran that far is that there was someone else in the gym, and I didn't want them to think I was a wimp. I would have stopped at right around 3/4 of a mile . . . I am jigglier than pre-pg, and running made me feel ridonc and sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969513 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:49:55 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 969513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>like, 30 seconds? so sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969512 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:49:31 +0000 chopsuey 969512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: that's really good! you could slowly work your way up to running more. I was so determined to run at least 1, but my old knees started hurting a lot. didn't wanna injure myself so I walked a bit, then started running again! haha. I actually ran another 1/4 mile before I walked again. </p> <p>@grizz: wow!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969509 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:48:40 +0000 delight 969509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was trying to get to 5k before I got pregnant. I think I could do about 2.5 km or so. Maybe about 10-15 mins. I can't wait to get back into running but I am going to be so out of shape. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969508 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:48:39 +0000 MrsBrewer 969508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ummm, not very far at all. Im just beginning training now, and I go 3 miles total, but I jog 2-3 blocks outside then walk 1-2. And repeat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969498 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:46:53 +0000 Boheme 969498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pre-baby: 13-15 miles when I trained for a half marathon</p> <p>Post-baby: lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969490 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:44:07 +0000 Mrs. Pen 969490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: we are the same!! I can run about half a mile and then I need to stop for 1-2 minutes, then I can run another .25 miles... BUT to be fair I've NEVER been a runner, I think the furthest I could ever run was maybe a mile? But I never really tried. I wish I was a runner and I wish I could go further. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-run-before-having-to-stop#post-969484 Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:42:26 +0000 chopsuey 969484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got back from running on the treadmill.<br /> I used to be able to run 5+ miles without stopping, no problem.<br /> I did .54 miles and slowed down to walk. :P<br /> Sad thing is, I was really proud of myself. haha. </p> <p>You? </p>
