Do you have another question?

If you have a question that was not answered here please email support at: support@runwithhal.com

Friend,

By now you are most likely feeling the effects of the coronavirus pandemic in your hometown. Maybe you're taking care of children who are stuck at home due to school closures; maybe you're dealing with the loss of a job; or maybe you're even fighting the sickness itself. I want you to know that we at Run With Hal are here to support you through this strange and challenging time.

Your training has no doubt been altered as social distancing rules become more urgent and races are cancelled or postponed. So I wanted to reach out to you with some thoughts and suggestions about training through this time. You may feel like it's hopeless to continue, but I'm here to tell you that continuing to run (at a reduced volume and pace) is a great way to clear your head, stay healthy, and preserve as much of a sense of normalcy as we can—even if there's no particular race in sight. Here are the things you should consider about running through a pandemic:

As runners, we are generally healthier than the general public. But there is one moment when we become vulnerable to illness, according to research by David Nieman, DrPH, director of the human performance laboratory at Appalachian State University. Based on a study of runners at the Los Angeles Marathon, Dr. Nieman showed that runners are vulnerable to colds and even the flu immediately before and immediately after a marathon.

This is because peak training (all those extra miles we run leading into the taper) lowers our immune function, breaking down our natural barriers against illness. As for the week after the marathon, that's another immune system wrecking ball. We get a cold—or worse, the flu—more during that window than the general public.

Apart from your own health, it's also important to respect your local social distancing regulations in order to protect those who might be vulnerable to the virus. The cancellations of key races might be difficult to accept, but they could save lives in the long run.

Let me be blunt: I know how hard you've trained for this singular moment in your life, but you will most likely need to modify your plans in the age of coronavirus. Fortunately this is also an incredible opportunity to focus on the more subtle aspects of your training, and come out the other side a healthier, more driven, and stronger runner. Here's what I suggest in the coming weeks to help you stay healthy and motivated.

1. Cut the miles. Have you reached that critical 20-miler in your training? Stop. Don't go there. Stop short at 16. Will this limit your performance? Possibly, but consider the penalty if you overtrain and get sick.
2. Too late? You already did the 20? You're into the 3-week taper? Cut even the shorter taper mileage in half. Run only every other day. Run slower. Take more walking breaks. It might be tempting to skip your taper with no race in sight, but your body is already fighting to recover from a long block of training, and you need to be extra gentle with it in this period.
3. Shift events. Is there a half marathon connected with your full marathon? Run 13.1 instead of 26.2. If there is no shorter-distance option, drop out early. No one will blame you for a DNF. Just remember to remove your bib and not go through the finishing chute.
4. Let go of any plans to set a PR (Personal Record) or BQ (Boston Qualifying Time). It will be an emotional choice and difficult to do, but at this point continued health should be your mantra.
5. Don't start. Yes, I know you paid a ridiculous entry fee, went through a lottery to get in the field and have airline and hotel reservations, but skipping the race might be your best option. Think about how you want to look back on these times—will you be happy you kept training or happy you took steps to protect your health and the health of those around you?

Nobody anticipated the extent to which the coronavirus would affect our lives as runners. If you're still able to run, just remember that this is not the time to be a hero. Picking one of the five options above may be the smartest move you make as a long distance runner.

Good luck and stay safe,
Hal

Updating Run With Hal for Your Canceled or Postponed Race

Here are a few tips on how to continue to use Run With Hal with your changing race schedule. We also include instructions below on how to set up a new goal race if you're not familiar with the process.

1. If your race has been postponed you'll want to build a new plan for your new race date. If your new race is in the late autumn, you will likely be put into a Base Training plan to start.
2. Add a summer race as your new goal race. We suggest you find a race near the time your autumn race plan will begin (18 weeks before a marathon, 12 weeks before a half marathon, 10 weeks before a 15K/10 mile, and 8 weeks before 10K or shorter).
3. Continue with your current plan and use the race date as a test for yourself. Your family could even make you a medal after you finish your “Hometown Half”. You could run your own race on a treadmill, path, trail, or track (be careful with all those laps!).
4. You could sign up for a virtual event if you want the accountability but don't have a specific race or race date right now (this could align with the goal race you have on your calendar right now).

How to set up a new goal race:

1. Tap the plan personalization icon in the upper right corner of the app
2. Tap Goal Race
3. Tap the pink text at the bottom of this page that reads “Build A New Training Plan” and finally tap Confirm. In doing this, your current plan will be archived. You can access this plan and your runs by tapping the More tab and Past Training Plans.
4. Enter your new goal race information
5. Start training!

A few notes about your new plan:

1. If you are interested in a plan with fewer miles as Hal suggested above, you can shift to a Novice plan, a shorter race distance, or limit the number of days you are able to run each week in the Day Availability.
2. If your new race is far enough in the future you may start with one of Hal's Base Training plans. This could mean you see a large, downward shift in distance for your runs. This is normal, if you were in the heat of marathon training you cannot sustain that until your new autumn race date. This drop will allow you to recover mentally and physically before you ramp back up for your new goal race.
3. Your past training was not lost or deleted. Run With Hal displays your current training plan to keep you focused. To see your previous plans, Tap the More tab and Past Training Plans and tap on any of options to see the workouts from each plan.
4. The Hal Says and Stats data is based upon your current training plan, it does not include data from your archived plan.
5. Your plan cannot be shifted into the future. Due to the adaptive nature of your plan, all of your settings are unique to your current plan and your plan must build from your new start date. This includes the number of weeks until your race date, updates to any of your settings, changes to the days you are available to run, adding or removing Other Races (or if they are no longer within the plan’s duration), or changes to your Blackout Dates.
