Arkansas 20K: Three Weeks to Go! Getting ready for 12.4 miles on October 24? Now’s the time to build confidence and fine-tune your race routine! Stay consistent. Stick with training you can comfortably handle. Avoid cramming in extra miles to make up for missed runs. Practice controlled hills. Keep your effort steady uphill, even if your pace slows. Save some energy for the miles ahead! Rehearse your fueling. Use your remaining longer runs to practice the breakfast, fluids, and fuel you plan to use on race day. Test your gear. Make sure your shoes, socks, and clothing work comfortably on a longer outing. Make recovery count. Give yourself easy days and plenty of sleep. As race day approaches, ease back so you arrive feeling fresh.What are you most looking forward to—meeting the challenge, enjoying the fall miles, or crossing that finish line?

WHY JOIN A RUNNING & WALKING CLUB?Because you don't have to figure everything out by yourself.Running and walking seem pretty simple—until you start having questions. What kind of shoes do I need? How fast should my easy runs be? Do I need to carry water? What should I eat before a race? How do I build mileage safely? When am I ready for my first 5K? Should I run today or take a rest day?One of the great things about being around other runners and walkers is realizing:Somebody has probably asked the same question before.A running club gives you people to learn from, share experiences with, encourage—and eventually, you'll probably find yourself helping someone who's just getting started too.That's how a community grows. We learn from each other. Experienced runners & walkers: What's ONE thing you wish someone had told you when you were first getting started? Saline County StridersDifferent Paces. Different Goals. One Community. Ready to Run, Walk & Connect? Learn more about the Striders: salinecountystriders.com/ ...
