Half marathon training continues with an easy paced Friday 5 miler. Same route as 10 days ago, similar conditions but slightly quicker and a good 4 bpm lower on average #running #halfmarathontraining #runnersofmastodon #corosrunning

What a day to decide to do my long run, totally drenched ☔️🌧️ but well happy. Today’s plan was a progression run, 5 min warm up, 5k hr zone 2 and 8k zone 3. Was unable to pick the pace up so kept it steady throughout the run due to the wind, rain and route chosen. #running #sundaylongrun #corosrunning #halfmarathontraining #runnersofmastodon #neverendingstory #falkor

The first of my weekend runs in this HM training block and an easy paced zone 2 6.5km run with warm up and cool down.Tomorrow is a 14km progression run so time to carb up #running #halfmarathontraining #corosrunning #oldguysrule #runchat #runnersofmastodon

Half Marathon Training. Wk6, Day2: Race pace intervals. Today’s workout consisted of 8x800m in zone 3 with 480m floats in zone 2 For some reason I miscalculated and only ran 6 reps but tbh it was enough #running #halfmarathontraining #racepaceintervals #corosrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon

Half Marathon Training.Wk 5, Day 4. Tatton Park 10k Race. First race since September, really enjoyed the atmosphere, just wished I could have gone a little quicker but it wasn’t to be today #running #halfmarathontraining #10krace #corosrunning #runnersofmastodon

Half Marathon Training. Wk 5, Day 2. 2 Mile Warm Up + 5 x 480m easy with 160m Pick Ups. Found a flat route and dug out my Takumi Sen’s for this one. #running #halfmarathontraining #corosrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon

After yesterday’s run tests I can better dial in my workouts for the half marathons lined up in the next 3 months. Today an 8km run with 3 in zone 2 and 5 in zone 3. Pace a little slower than expected due to the more hilly route taken #running #halfmarathontraining #racepace #corosrunning #runnersofmastodon

The lactate and vo2 max test I had booked today had to be cancelled so did my own on a treadmill. It’s not as accurate to determine LT2 but is ok for now. #running #thresholdtest #corosrunning #runnersofmastodon
