Riverbank Run?

Diana Prince · February 2011

Is anyone doing the 25K race at the Riverbank Run this spring? I'm thinking about it...

I'd be lucky to get into 5K shape by that point. I always watch though - I have several family members and friends that run it every year.

I'm doing the 10K. I don't have time to train for the 25K. =P

You betcha! My husband and I and a few of our friends are running the 25K.

I haven't started really training yet. I'm keeping a base of a about 20 miles a week and throwing in some long runs (up to 10 miles). I'll probably start sticking to more of a scheduled increase of long runs sometime in March.

Have you started training? Good luck and I'm glad you're at least considering it! It's a great race - good course, well organized, etc.

I haven't started training at all, but went for two 3-mile runs last week and now I feel all ambitious. The race is 12 weeks from Saturday, which is enough time to safely train for the distance I think. The next price hike isn't until April 22, so I think I'll start training and see what things look like in a month.

That's awesome! I think 12 weeks is the perfect amount of time to build up to race shape. Some might recommend more time, but I'm a low mileage, run 3 or 4 times a week kind of runner.

I'll be there, likely running it as at training run for the Bayshore Marathon that is two weeks later.
