Hi all, I'm looking for clarification please. I've read the rules and all posts in this thread. I'm using the 100/100 as motivation to get back to training consistently. My goal is 50/100, and my plan is to run 15 minutes twice a day, until I've built the fitness and stamina to run the minimum 30 minutes in 1 run. (I'm coming back from 18 months of no running and very little of anything else).
On my first 3 runs I've walked 5 minutes to warm up, then ran a total of 15 minutes, and walked the remainder of my route home, or if on a treadmill, for another 15 minutes to make a 35 minute workout.
My question is, do I need to add up and log the 2 x 15 minutes of running and the distance I ran, or can I just sync both run-walks through Strava and be done?
i think you'll probably need to hack it manually, in the training log. but i defer to those more knowledgeable.
Thanks Dan, I get that 2 x 15 minutes needs to be manually entered as one run, and that's what I've done so far.
Perhaps I could have been clearer, as my question is as much about the rules as the process. What if I ran for 3 minutes, walked for 2 minutes and repeated that a total of 6 times? The activity would qualify by meeting the 30 minute time requirement, but I have only run for 18 minutes. Would it count as a "run" on it's own (in which case I could just let Strava do its thing) or would I be required by the rules to do another one of these at least an hour later, with at least 12 minutes of running, to meet the minimum 30 minutes of running?
What prompted my question was seeing Dev's post about doing the 100/100 as rehab with a bunch of walk-runs as his build up to meeting the minimum in 1 continuous run. I aim to, eventually, run longer and further each run, but I am only aiming at 50/100, so will either cut back to one run every second day, or take advantage of the rules and have more rest in between run days, but do 2 a day when I'm running for 30 minutes or more each run.
Thanks,
Bernard
