#cphhalf — Public Fediverse posts

This morning, I did a 35-minutes tempo run to train stamina. I pushed for a hard (but not all-out) effort, and I kept it up throughout the run. What a nice way to start the day.

I was also pleasantly reminded of how R.E.M.'s "Supernatural Superserious" is an amazing song for some fast #running.

This was my 101st run this year.

Distance: 6.84k
Pace: 5'10"

#CphHalf in 32 days, Malmö Marathon in 45.

I started the day with a cruel 1-hour treadmill exercise through "rolling hills."

The treadmill and the #NikeRunClub app were in huge disagreement about the metrics of the run. The former seemed somewhat conservative, which tricked me into running harder than usually.

More than anything, this was endurance training. And I am glad I did it.

Distance: 11.46k (app) or 10.38k (treadmill)
Pace: 5'14" or 5'47"

#CphHalf in 34 days, Malmö Marathon in 47.

#CphHalf done!

I quickly realized I had "it" today, so from 2k I chased a PR. The challenge: to keep pushing myself, but not to the point of burning out.

Again, experience mattered greatly as I constantly calibrated the effort. I knew what to do and what I could do; this was hard but most satisfying.

At 16k, I knew I would succeed. And I did! Finishing in 1:51:26, I shaved 1:16 off last year's result and got the new PR I had hoped for. All is well.

Today, I run the #CphHalf. 21.097m through Copenhagen.

Races are celebrations of #running. This one is usually a blast!

My goal is to finish strong and enjoy it. But as the course is flat and I am in good shape, I might also try to beat my PR (1:52:42). The light rain, the lack of sleep this week, and the excessive dinner my mother-in-law served yesterday may work against it, though. I'll decide early on when I'm out there.

Stiller Israel premier Tech op til CPH Half? Eller hvad er det gør, at de er bange for demonstrationer til deres løb?

Happy to have completed Copenhagen Half Marathon with a new personal best at 1:45:00 #cphhalf #running #mastorundk

VICTORY!!!

Today, I conquered the Copenhagen Half-Marathon. Only eight days after Arrakis Marathon (see earlier posts), I managed to cut 15 seconds off my old PR, feel in control the whole time, and have a blast. This was close to a perfect race for me. This is what #running is (also) about.

Apologies for the bragging (sorry, not sorry), but this really feels like a major accomplish, and I am most content.

Thank you for the support, everyone!

#MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose #cphhalf

It was a good idea after all. The perfect weather, a conservative goal (around three minutes faster than last year), forcing myself to stick to the planned pace and good hydration/fueling lead to this being my best race so far (and I even managed to do negative splits for the first time). My only regret is that I could perhaps have pushed harder 😃
#MastoRunDK #cphhalf

Here we go - again. This time it's Copenhagen Halfmarathon. #cphhalf

If things go well, I'll attack my own personal record: 1:52:57. If they don't, I'll just have fun.

Tag along on www.cphhalf.dk. In number 5961.

#running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Yay! Family scheduling worked out alright, so I will run the Copenhagen Marathon (#cphhalf) tomorrow after all.

There is a live feed through www.cphhalf.dk. I am number 5961.

It shall be interesting to see how this will go down only eight days after the full and very exhausting Helsingborg Marathon. I will either be on fire or go up in flames, I guess...

#running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

On Sunday I'll find out if this was a bad idea to do only 8 days after Helsingborg Marathon 🙂
#MastoRunDK #cphhalf

It's on!

2024.

The year of my first full marathon (#CphMarathon in T minus 123 days) and at least two half-marathons (#CphHalf in September and Sydkystløbet in October).

See you on the starting line.

@folfdk

Lutter gode løb (som bare passer helt håbløst med min logistik).

#CphHalf-deltagelsen er sikret for mit vedkommende. Det samme er Nordisk AdventureRun (med min bror, som gav mig det i gave) og Cph Marathon - og mon ikke, der kommer lidt ekstra til, i hvert tilfælde når Sydkystløbet åbner for tilmeldinger.

@askekammer
Jeg skulle nok have skrevet "deltaget i"! 😅

Lige nu er det http://FrostCup.dk her til vinter.
Og i sommers var jeg med til Christianshavnermilen.

Kan se #CPHHalf 2024 billeterne bliver revet væk, så har overvejet om jeg skal købe en tidlig julegave til mig selv ! 😀

@gausby

Yes, they did hand out High5 gels at the #CPHhalf

And yes, the route did.
Km 18-19 was on Ingerslevsgade turning onto Enghavevej and then through Kingosgade to Frederiksberg Allé for the finale.
They had "drop zones" and not bins, so it was expected that people would drop their litter on the street.

#running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

First run after #CphHalf. All is good. Next: Sydkystløbet (half marathon) in T minus 23 days.

@LiselotteWiller

Det er fjerde gang jeg løber #CphHalf, og jeg kan ikke huske andre år med så mange "kvæstede" deltagere og så mange udrykninger. Der er altid nogle, som falder eller forvrider noget - men i dag var anderledes. Også folk i målområdet virkede betydeligt mere "kogte", end de plejer at være. Jeg tror simpelthen, at varmen er kommet bag på mange (også på mig).

Så nu glæder jeg mig til at komme hjem i haven og spise en is.

Update: #CphHalf done!

Goal: cross the starting line and have fun ✅
Hope: finish in less than 2hrs ✅
Pipe dream: beat my personal record ❌

My official time is 1:58:09. I am more than happy with that - especially considering the weather (warmer than expected) and the number of people, which at times exceeded the actually capacity of the road.

@Chris

Det var fra i aftes, og ja! i dag er det #CPHhalf

Er næsten klar til starten der går 11:15
Jeg har kunnet 8138 og krydser fingre for at jeg kan holde til tempo 5:00/km hele vejen, og så en lille spurt til sidst 😀

#MastoRunDK #ViLøber

Today is #CPHHalf, which means my neighbourhood is encircled by runners. So I’m metroing to city centre to hear Gustav Piekut play Debussy/Schumann/Rachmaninov at #Glyptoteket, then attend Britten’s The Turning of the Screw at #kglteater 😎

Today is #CphHalf, 21.097 km #running across Copenhagen. It is the fourth time I participate, and #EveryRunHasAPurpose.

I've prepared for this race since April with support at a distance from @coachbennett and the #MastoRunDK community. Thank you!!

Goal: cross the starting line and have fun
Hope: finish in less than 2hrs
Pipe dream: beat my personal record (1:54:16, 2019)

This is my jam: https://spotify.link/WJ3u9pM78Cb

My # is 21361. I think you can follow along through https://cphhalf.dk/en/.

@moelholm

I like how each runner has their own tempo thresholds and targets.

I'd be very pleased if I hit average of 4:55/km tomorrow for the #CPHhalf, which is an easy flat route 😅

Congratulations on finishing with such a nice result!

#running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

#CphHalf in T minus three days. This was the last test, and I am ready.
