Just a few regular run days

Now that I’m following the myasics plan, the last couple of runs kind of felt a little like starting over with a 5k and a 7k yesterday and another 7 tomorrow. But we are back to a 10.5 on Friday to get things back to normal. I just found a whole separate mobile running app built into my Fitbit app that I did not know about all this time!! And it’s much less annoying than Asics nagging Nancy, so I tried it out yesterday. The interface was bit nicer too IMO as well. And the manual input into the myasic calendar worked fine too.

Hi Decker what is the Myasics? and could I down load it onto my I shuffle ?

Nice to read your post.

Happy running! 😀😀

If you go to myasics.com on the computer, you can setup a training plan after answering a few questions about the distance you are training for, what you are currently running etc. I plugged in training towards a half marathon, to get through the winter. Its quite good in that it then creates a plan that you can shuffle run days forward if needed etc. I could also add it to my icalendar, and it sends email reminders for runs. Its not for everyone, but I like the structure. It also has an associated phone app that i downloaded on the apple store. The app has a voice over option for distance and pace etc, that can be a little annoying, but still works well in tandem with the calendar. I don’t really know if its compatible with the iShuffle though as I use it with my iphone.

I have a fitbit watch and it comes with an app you can download off the apple store. I only just realized it has a deeper mobile gps running app (with voice cues and mapping) built into it😀 after using it for 6 months!

It may be worth experimenting with to see if it may work for you. Some folks don’t love the constant structure, but so far I like it.

Congrats on finding your hidden running app and being able to avoid Nagging Nancy, she sounds like a chore 😆.
