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

Sunday long run day done ✅ had planned on being out for 2 hours split into easy, tempo and fast finish but tbh even with stops for fuel & hydration I’d had enough so called it a day and thought no point carrying on just to put unnecessary strain on the body as there’s always another day #running #longrun #sundaylongrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

Wasn’t expecting to go out for a run today but luck was on my side so shoes laced up and out for an easy pace jog round #running #easyrunning #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

Had to consolidate both weekend runs into one as we’ve got a family get together tomorrow. 14km with 5km at a more faster pace. Not as fast as I’d like, the aim was to keep in zone 3 as much as possible but today’s warmer temperatures meant it did creep up a little #running #longrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Happy chocolate egg day 👊 zone 2 metric half ran today. Felt strong all the way round although did stop to take in fuel a couple of times but happy with pace and heart rate stayed pretty much constant throughout #running #longrun #eastersundaylongrun #heartratetraining #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

6x6 minute intervals was the plan for today. Was hoping to push a little harder but it’s been a while since I’ve ran an intense rep time wise for a few months. Aim was 5 min/km actual was 5:11 min/km so hope to improve on the next one #running #intervaltraining #10ktraining #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

It was one of those days were I didn’t feel like dressing for running in the rain even though it wasn’t heavy so decided on a treadmill run. 40 minutes at mostly zones 1 and 2 with a slight drift into 3 towards the end #running #treadmillrunning #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

20 minutes shakeout run to finish this training block for my 10k race. Kept pace and heart rate nice and low, 6:50 min/km, 140 bpm average #running #10ktraining #shakeoutrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Just one more week until Tatton Park 10k and a 60 minute progression run in the bag. 25 minutes easy, 25 minutes tempo and 5 minutes race pace. Wanted to keep pace as steady in the sections as possible so allowed hr to rise on the inclines #running #progressionrun #onehourrun #tattonpark10k #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

Intervals day today, 20 minutes warm up, 10x2 minutes at 5:20-5:30 min/km, my present threshold pace but managed to average 5:15 min/km and heart rate still in zone 4 so fitness definitely improving finishing with 10 minutes cool down # running #intervalrunning #thresholdrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Tempo intervals was on the plan for today’s run for a 10k race in two weeks time. 30 minutes warm up, 4.43km at 6:43 min/km, 6x5 minutes at 5:36 min/km average and 10 minutes cool down, 1.34 km at 7:28 min/km. max hr 176 bpm average 156 bpm #running #temporunning #tempointervals #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon

60 minutes easy pace running today. One of those runs were you feel like you could have gone longer #running #easyrunning #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Tempo intervals today. Socks chosen today; the wolf to represent endurance and the cheetah to represent top end speed #running #temporunning #intervals #tempointervals #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

A nice and easy out and back 40 minutes to start the running week #running #easyrunning #polarrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

What a difference a day makes. Probably one of my best days out running, everything went almost to plan. 40 minutes easy pace plus 14x25 second hill repeats #running #hillrepeats #10ktraining #polarrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Spring is in the air but not in my steps. Wish I could write today’s run off and start again 😔 Even though I hit the paces it felt really tough all the way round, whether it was the route chosen, footwear or not enough fuel 🤷🏻‍♂️Breathing heavy, heartrate up just not feeling it. Maybe tomorrow will be better #running #progressionrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

Goal pace repeats was the order of the day. 20 minutes warm up, 8x2 minutes with 1 minute walk recovery followed by 10 minutes cool down. Got a 10k race in 6 weeks and plan to run it around 51-55 minutes so to average 5:11 min/km is about right #running #runchat #polarrunning #intervaltraining #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Kicking off this running week with a 7k slow and easy effort. The only objective was to keep pace slow and steady and hr low but with allowances for any inclines so to keep average around 144 bpm is well within my limit #running #easyrunning #slowrunning #polarrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

That’s the weekend’s running done! Today was intervals day and a session of 16x30 second repeats at mile pace after a 40 minute easy pace warm up. Dug my old Alphaflys for this one as there’s still a bit of life in them for speed work #running #intervals #10ktraining #polarrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Not really up to it today as a few errands to run and only got out the door later on so a little incentive was needed as it was tempo day with 8x2 minute repeats which went to plan so that was a bonus #running #temporunning #polarrunning #10ktraining #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity
