A short long run today, just out for a little over 60 minutes with some half marathon pace tempo running included in the 8k main workout. A little harder than I would have liked but had a tight chest this morning so breathing not at its best #running #halfmarathonpace #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Another day another hot one so a slow jog round trying my best to keep in zone 2 which was quite a feat at 27°C but job done and another one ticked off #running #aerobicrunning #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

2 x 15 minute intervals at lunchtime, not the best plan especially when the temp is 26°C but that’s the only time spare to go. 15 minutes warm up then on with the action. Main aim was to keep in hr zone 3 which tbh was a struggle so trying to keep to a pace was out of the question #running #tempointervals #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Two runs for the price of one today. Had to split my long run into two as my chest strap played up again. 5km zone 2 and 6.5km zone 3. Plenty stops, walk breaks and fluids taken due to the hot weather so today was more about running with hr and rpe than pace #running #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Tuesday intervals and 3x10 minutes in tempo zone with 3 minutes jog recovery. 15 minutes warm up then a short rest then into the workout, had to adjust pace to keep hr in zone 3 as there were a few ups and downs on the route chosen but on the whole a good day’s workout #running #tempointervals #halfmarathontraining #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Half marathon training block continues for Stockholm, feeling a lot better today and an hour easy run this dinner time. Made a conscious effort to keep in zone 2 as much as possible so wasn’t bothered about pace. #running #halfmarathontraining #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Today’s run was not the best I’ve ran tbh, struggled to keep in zone 2 without resorting to a lot of stops and walking. Glad its over and can start again in a day or two #running #slowrun #10krun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Met up last night for our monthly social run organised by our local craft beer pub. Another well organised 5k with the bonus of a beer afterwards #running #socialrun #5krun #polarrunning #beeroclock #runnersofmastodon

Intervals day again and some tempo repeats, 3x8 minutes with 3 minutes rest. Pace ok but hr into threshold towards the end of the reps although where I run for these type of runs is in a dip and rises towards the end so have to compensate with allowing hr to rise or pace to drop #running #Intervaltraining #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Hell of a busy day today, an important video call this morning and an appointment later on so this run was a much needed one. One huge bonus though I got my confirmation email that my application to run Tokyo Legacy Half has been accepted #running #easyrunning #cathartic #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

And first run with new watch, a supposedly zone 2 run but just about managed to average aerobic threshold for the run but mhr about 7-8 beats up #running #longrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Thought I’d have a go at the “Norwegian Method” today, 4x4 minutes with 3 minutes jog recovery. Happy with the effort put in and averaging 4:41 min/km will be a good benchmark to start with #running #4x4minutes #intervaltraining #polarrunning #norwegianmethod #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Got some recommendations from last weekend’s threshold tests. As LT1 is on the lower side it was suggested I concentrate on base building again so running with a hr of 139 bpm or less. Exercise today was to run until heart rate exceeded LT1 #treadmillrunning #running #aerobicbasebuilding #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon
