What a fine morning for running through the city of Chester and the surrounding lanes for the #chesterhalfmarathon. Not the result I would have liked but that heat was a killer especially with those hills 🥵🥹 #running #halfmarathon #halfmarathonrace #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Final run before my half marathon this Sunday, wanted to keep as easy pace as possible and not let hr go too high so a couple of slower km’s while going up hills #running #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #easyrun #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Easy 40 minutes to start the taper for Chester Half Marathon, just two more easy ish runs to go and hopefully all will be ok. Also making sure to keep up with carbing up, had some overnight oats this morning and salmon pasta after my run tonight. #running #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #easyrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Well that went better than expected 😊😁 Last long run before next Sunday’s Chester Half managed to keep pace relatively consistent and heart rate not getting too high especially with the weather being so warm. All that’s left is a couple of runs for the taper week to complete the training block. #running #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #sundaylongrun #longrun #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Getting near the end of this training block for Chester Half in just over 10 days and Manchester 10k the weekend after. Was out with the family all day again so was late again when I managed to put by running gear on and was glad I chose my FuelCell Elite 4’s for this tempo run as the definitely helped my feet today. 40 minutes on total , 10 minutes warm up, 20 minutes tempo and 5 minutes cool down. #running #temporun #temporunning #chesterhalfmarathon #manchester10k #adidasrunning #oldguysrule

It wasn’t the best time to do a threshold run mid afternoon when the sun was probably at its highest which showed in today’s threshold run. Also probably didn’t help hardly eating today as I doubt a bowl of muesli, a banana and an energy gel 7 hours before helped 😄 must admit I made up for it afterwards with this plate of carbonara when I got in 😋🤤 #running #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #thresholdrunning #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity #oldguysrule

Final test of my race day shoes before #chesterhalfmarathon in 3 weeks time. Today I allotted a 1 hr 50 minute run with the first hour at easy pace followed by 45 minutes a little faster but keeping hr below zone 4 then completing the run with 5 minutes cool down jog. The New Balance FuelCell’s are bedding in nicely now so I’ll put them away ready for race day. #running #longrun #sundaylongrun #halfmarathontraining #polarrunning #runningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule #hornsup

Tuesday as usual for this training block for Chester Half is threshold day split into two halves of 30 minutes zone 2 easy and zone 4 threshold. Happy for the steady improvement over the past few weeks as race draws near #running #halfmarathontraining #thresholdrun #progressionrun #chesterhalfmarathon #polarrunning #runningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

Sunday long run testing my race shoes out for Chester Half in 4 weeks time. Decided to forego my usual zone 2 run and split the run into 2 parts, first 11km keeping hr zone 2/ aerobic threshold and the next 5km in zone 3 and lower limit of zone 4. Found I need to alter lacing so will adjust accordingly and test next weekend #running #halfmarathontraining #adidasrunning #chesterhalfmarathon #longrun #sundaylongrun #newbalancefuelcellelite #runningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

45 minute progression tempo working through hr zones 1-4 followed by 5 minutes cool down walk. Was hoping on negative splits but slowed a little for the hilly parts in order to save myself towards the end of the workout #running #temporun #progressionrun #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity #oldguysrule

Saturday and the dreaded intervals day 🥵🥹 Polar Flow plan said 3x5 minutes and 2 minutes recovery with 13 minutes warm up and 5 minutes cool down. Been a long time since I ran more than 2 sets so the last one took it out of me and pace slightly dropped for that one. First 2 managed those at 5k race pace, 4:41 min/km and the last at 10k race pace 4:56 min/km #running #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #intervals #polarflow #polarrunning #RunningCommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

Tempo running today building up intensity from easy pace through to threshold then easing off for the last 5 minutes with a cool down jog.

Another progression run scheduled for today as part of my half marathon plan. Took a more undulating route so had to compensate with pace to keep in the right zones for the workout. #running #halfmarathontraining #chesterhalfmarathon #progressionrun #thresholdrun #adidasrunning #polarrunning #RunningCommunity #mastorunners #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

Sunday easy run day came round again and 70 minutes in zone 1/2. Felt really comfortable for the majority of the route but slight rises in hr on some of the undulating parts plus an altercation with a swan didn’t help either 😳 #running #longrun #easyrun #heartratetraining #halfmarathontraining #sundayrunday #adidasrunning #shadowman #chesterhalfmarathon #RunningCommunity #mastorunners #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule
