I have a few questions about running in general and hopefully some people can help me out.
Ive been running for a few months. (Im honestly not sure how long) Right now the most I have ever ran was 6 miles without stopping. However, Im having a hard time getting past this 6 mile mark. By the time I hit 6 miles I am tired, my legs ache, Im bored, and unmotivated to run anymore. Ive noticed my main problem is not being tired or out of breath, but rather my legs hurt really badly. How often should I be working out my legs (lifting) and what kind of exercises should I do? It is always my legs hurting that causes me to stop running.
Also, Ive noticed that some days I can run 6 miles, and then other days I have a large amount of trouble running 3. I dont understand how I can only run half my best distances on some days. What are some ways that I can improve the consitancy of my runs? I havent really been able to figure out what is causing the bad days. (different diet, times of run, etc
