Am I a Real Runner If I Walk?

Most runners wait too long to walk. I did too. In my early 40s I thought walking meant failure, so I only used it when I was falling apart. It cost me my first marathon. I ended up on the sweep bus at mile 22 with my knee wrapped in ice, watching other runners pass me. A year later, walking helped me finish the same race strong. In this video, I share the full story. How I went from “walking is quitting” to “walking is my secret weapon.” Why my early attempts with walking intervals failed. How short, planned breaks helped me run stronger in my late 40s and now in my 50s. And how walking helped me train smarter, stay injury free, and actually enjoy running again. You’ll hear: • The mistake that caused my blowup at mile 22 • Why walking intervals felt terrible at first • What changed when I shortened my walk breaks • The exact run walk ratios I used for long runs, speed work, and races • How short walks on rest days helped me recover faster • The strategy I used to finish races I wasn’t fully trained for • How walking helped me become a stronger runner at 54 than at 43 If you’re training for your first marathon in your 40s or 50s, this might be the shift that changes everything. Try a 4 to 1 ratio on your next long run and see what happens.
