Back once again for everything you wanted to know about running but were afraid to ask.

Rules of the Road:

This is inspired by eric_twinge’s fine work in r/fitness.

Upvote either good or stupid questions. Sort questions by new so that they get some love.

To the more experienced runnitors, if something is a good question or answer, add it to the FAQ.

Post your question – stupid or otherwise – here to get an answer – stupid or otherwise. Anyone can post a question and the community as a whole is invited and encouraged to provide an answer. Many questions get submitted late each week that don’t get a lot of action, so if your question didn’t get answered, feel free to post it again.

As always, be sure to read the FAQ first. Also, there’s a handy-dandy search bar to your right, and if you didn’t know, you can also use Google to search runnit by using the limiter “site:reddit.com r/running”.

Be sure to check back often as questions get posted throughout the day. Sort comments by “new” to be sure the newer questions get some love as well.

    I do have that flagged as a NY option but for some reason it’s not on my radar for next year.

    I do 100% have to do steamtown as my PA race because of my namesake (I promise to sing to song to everyone as I roll down the hill) plus my partner does like trains so we can visit the historic park.

    The nice thing with Baltimore is I could take the train there, no driving or flying! And I would get a crab medal to go with my lobster claw medal from this year.

      If you want to double-up on crab medals, you can do King Crab. Frederick+Baltimore 10+Baltimore Running Festival.

      Frederick could get you the squirrel medal for the Nut Job Challenge too! More animal medals!

      I was considering the Chessie Challenge, but that’s Baltimore and Ocean City both in October. Not sure I could do marathons that close together.
