Athlete Accomplishments: October 2019

October is one of the biggest racing months of the year, from big races like the Chicago Marathon to small, local races. Dozens of Team Norris Running athletes raced this October. For many, these races yielded PRs, both overall PRs and course PRs. For others, while they didn't have the race day they trained for, they demonstrated remarkable grit and strength on tough days - which is as remarkable as a PR.  Sam ran a 3-minute course PR in a 5K race and a half marathon PR/course PR at the ...

How Eric Ran a Six Minute PR in the Half Marathon

While running is not solely about finish time, there is something incredibly satisfying about putting in months of hard work and running a hard-earned PR on race day. Eric started working with me in the summer of 2018 to train for an October half marathon, after a few years of long distance running on his own. His PR at that time was a 1:53 from recent race. In the past year of coaching, he’s taken six minutes off of this half marathon time - and is continuing to make progress as he trains for ...
