Low, low, low your boat, gently down the HR...
Another easy session in the bank, was sunny and enjoyable. Will be missing this kind of weather soon, but hope it stays like that for as long as possible.

Easy peasy morning run. Fun fact - lowest max HR in a year! Getting more used to this pacing, it's quite pleasant.

Hit the peak of my training readiness today, apparently. Wouldn't mind if that happened on Saturday, but I'll take it.
Four invervals around HM pace, felt in control and very consistent. It was a lovely sunny pre-lunch run, now happy to dig into some food 😎

Another sub-threshold session done, was feeling quite good overall. The minute of walking in between the faster intervals is definitely helping to recover the HR and have another go so quickly.
Grey morning! Bit of a spray in the air, but wouldn't call it a drizzle.

A long run with a slightly slower pace and a first proper Base one in a while! Miffed a bit about missing one #squadrats but got a plan for next Sunday, at least.
Now just to keep on trucking and have a proper 5K on Saturday - that's gonna change the future paces a bit!

Long Run Sunday, this time the direction was south. Visited Woolton, so some hills were in order, also really pretty streets and houses. Plenty of blooming trees, went through a massive cemetery, plodded up Camphill...
Enjoyable and varied run!

Another subT training, this time around HM pace. Felt good to avoid the rain, just enjoyed the wet asphalt and a gentle breeze. Now a day's rest is in order.
Will need to figure out my next long run location... Where are my future #squadrats? 🤔

Today's run was 45 mins of easy and then 8x100m strides. The air feels great when it's not trying to suffocate you :D

First subT NSM training done! It was a bit weird to get into the proper pace required, normally I was used to going a tad faster, but overall I nailed it.
Now to refuel with supper and to enjoy the rest of the day 😎

Sunday means Long Run day and that means going to the waterfront and enjoying some outdoor time with Liverpool Discord run group members.
Great weather, plenty of clouds for cover and a lovely breeze while running along the Mersey. Pace was truly enjoyable.

Bank Holiday Monday always hits differently when you can go for that morning run a bit later and don't have to worry about work.
Really nice overcast weather. On the way home I saw a fluffy black cat and it was up for some gentle pets, so that was something new 😁

Base morning run done, good weather, albeit a bit windy in the park. Still, happy to have it done and dusted, cherry on top was Garmin putting this effort into the Base bracket. As it should be be! 😅

Another day, another base run. The muscles are definitely feeling the restart of consistent training, but the heart was in the right place. Had to fight with the laziness a bit throughout, thinking about cutting it a bit shorter.
Didn't in the end, so I'm chuffed.

Dammit, had to cut it short again. Oh well, let's make this a lower mileage week already... Some adaptation issue needed from time to time.
I have a 15K route planned in my course selection, so that might be perfect for Sunday.

Just a base run, but due to the heat it didn't feel as easy as before.
Seriously, I'm too tired from this weather to even write anything more.
Hope you're all coping with it, enjoy your day and bring on the next week!

Some lighter running after yesterday's threshold.
Just realised that I haven't done much walking this week, so I'm tempted to rack up some steps over the next few days. Garmin badges are a serious game! 😉

Was considering making one lap less - I feel my glutes a bit and my left knee when not running. But...
Really wanted to continue the consistency. Will continue listening to my body, have Wednesday off and we'll see how I feel on Thursday 😎

Hey hey, I'm still here! Enjoying Poland and roaming around my old neighbourhood, even dropped a quick threshold SESSION, visiting the track. Fastest 7K!
Yesterday we went to Łódź for Project Hail Mary (IMAX) - no surprise, it's a good movie. Today is more of a chill day.

Morning Threshold! Second of the week, didn't expect that. Also didn't expect to be slightly panting while the legs just keep going as usual - the temps are getting to me!
Seems like 7AM is a bit too late, maybe earlier for tomorrow?

Today was a change of pace - literally! Been a while since I had some solid intervals upping my HR, so those seven ~500m reps reminded me how it feels to run hard.
Happy to finish them in a consistent manner!

Traded running in the cold (morning) for running in the rain (well, a drizzle). Felt good, went a bit slower than last time and I think this might be the sweet spot for Base workouts for now.

Kinda repeat from yesterday, but shorter and a bit faster - HR wasn't amazing this time, but it behaved well. Felt great to be running loops in the full sun, a slight breeze and plenty of room to just unwind.
Enjoyed a homemade chicken wrap afterwards, it was delish!
