An absolutely perfect morning for a long run... Mid-50s, overcast, and a cool breeze! The whole Fleet Feet training group did really well and a couple runners had their longest runs ever!

Another early morning run with awesome weather before work...starting took like fall! Super easy pace ahead of a long run tomorrow with the Fleet Feet training group.

Nice morning run around town before work (and before it got too hot!) Spreading my weekly volume to six days this week as I get to the 40+ mile weeks.

What happened to fall? Hot and muggy out there, but the group got it done! Asics demo night, so a big bonus to be able to run this one in the Superblast.

It's been way too long since I got in a @raritanvalleyroadrunners club run, but made it out for member appreciation night. A great run catching up with many friends, followed by dinner and beers while keep me my eye on the Yankees/Red Sox game.

Easy run around town, but picked up the pace a bit towards the end. Once again impressed by the hyperboost edge after lacing them a bit tighter than last time.

YIKES That's a tough Boston cutoff! Thoughts? Glad I've "been there/done that" and moved on from the whole qualifying mess/debate...I'm taking on the Liberty Bell Challenge in November to raise funds for cancer research.

Got in another double digit nor'easter training run... This time coaching the Fleet Feet half and full marathon training groups. A little drizzly again and wind gusts up to 50 mph, but got it done and everyone did great!

Mike Given @coachmike.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Was always going to be a tough weekend to get in long run miles, but have to pick spots between nor'easter bands. Gusty wind and drizzle, but not too bad. We'll see if there is any break tomorrow, but it's supposed to be worse.

I might be over posting a bit in very my first week of fundraising, but I kind of feel compelled to do so on World Cancer Research Day...sorry!

The rest of our township run/walk club was walking tonight, so I was the "run" part of our club name... At least I wore the right shirt!

Mike Given @coachmike.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Adding a bit more mileage and dropping the pace down...all good signs! Always nice to runaround the lake as well. Today's gear thought.. the Adidas Supernova Rise 3 is a very underrated shoe!

Running Questions: Have you ever run a race and fundraised for a charity organization? How was your experience and did you think it was harder or easier than you thought it would be? Anyone out there currently fundraising for their next race? (Continued in comments)

We got our run in after morning downpours left a lot of flooding. Behind me to the right in the pic is not a river, but the trail we had to follow! First run I've had to take my shoes and socks off to cross, and we did it 3 times! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🌧️👍 #running #feetures #marathontraining #runcoachmike #njrunning
