This Saturday, @hokaoneone athletes have their eye on breaking the world record in the 100K 🏆, in the new Carbon X 2! You can follow along with the PROJECT CARBON X 2 tomorrow morning AND have a chance to win your OWN PAIR of these snazzy new racers! 👟 In stories, there is a QR code and link to a Guess The Pace entry form where you submit your estimate for @walmsleyruns’ average pace for the event. ❓ 🤔 — 🚨The challenge begins at 7:00 AM MST (5:00 AM AKST) January 23. You can watch the live stream on Hoka’s Facebook page. SRS will be streaming a re-run as well, for those of you not getting up 5 hours before the 🌞. At the first Project Carbon X in 2019, HOKA athletes attempted the 100K world record, with some attempting to break 6 hours - current record is 6:09:14 (men's) and 6:33:11 (women's). While unable to get the 100K record, Jim Walmsley set a new 50-mile world best of 4 hours, 50 minutes and 8 seconds. #timetofly -

5 tips for helping you have a successful running year! ⬇️ 1. Increase running volume (miles or minutes) by approximately 10% from one week to the next. 2. Write down your workouts to see your progression and progress in 1, 2, 3 months. 3. Start with run/walks and work to increase the running portion and decrease walking duration over several weeks. 4. Find what motivates YOU! A virtual race/challenge, hiring a coach, a running friend, or the mental clarity it provides. 5. Get properly fitted for running shoes, so that your feet are comfortable and you don’t put yourself at risk for injury. @ravenrunclub #runningtips #akrunners #runningmotivation -
