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.

    Duke City is a cool one. The weather in ABQ in the fall is about as perfect as it gets for running, but the altitude is a bitch if you’re not ready for it. Parts of this city are higher than Denver.

      With that one I would fly out a week early to acclimate and would definitely depend on my friend being willing to put up with me visiting for an entire week to save cost, but I’m a sign up early person and I feel if I ask them now they will probably say something about it being too far away to know yet so it would be a gamble on the lodging costs.
