#medalmonday Its not often I have chance to participate in this but why not after the weekend’s #tattonpark10k with #runthroughuk #running #10krace #racephotos #ukrunchat #therunningcommunity #runnersofmastodon

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

Another day another treadmill run, maybe I can get outdoors later in the week 🤔 Anyway tempo/threshold session today, 25 minutes after 15 at warm up pace. Ended up 2 or 3 beats lower than threshold so could possibly have ran a little quicker #running #temporunning #thresholdrunning #adidasrunning #treadmillrunning #therunningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

Finishing 2024 with a hard worked 30 minutes. Definitely a struggle today, heart rate up to over 90% of MHR and lungs fighting to take in oxygen. So with my level of fitness lately a sub 30 5k is pretty damn good. Hope to return to previous years fitness as soon as possible #running #5krun #adidasrunning #therunningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

Thumbs up for Christmas Eve running 👍👍 #running #adidasrunning #feelinggood #christmas #christmasrunning #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity #oldguysrule

Today’s run was a good 55 minute zone 2 loop with a few walk breaks up some inclines to keep things in the right zone. #running #zone2running #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity #oldguysrule

5k fast ish pace in a 5 mile sandwich. Not the speediest I’ve ran but to push well under 30 minutes for the fast bit is a huge bonus at the moment #running #5krun #5milerun #thresholdrun #adidasrunning #therunningcommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

a failed … well sort of … tempo run. 10 minutes warm up then was supposed to do around 70 minutes in zone 3 but had to call it a day about 6 miles in 😔 my hamstring starting causing problems again and affecting tendons around the knee making running painful and difficult. It would have been a little more favourable if I wasn’t so far home and had to walk a good 2 miles. #running #temporunning #failedrun #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity

Today’s long run was a much better effort than last week. Slightly different route ran in the opposite direction and wearing different shoes, my Nike Invincibles which are a bit lighter. Same time ran but an extra km done #running #longrun #easyrunning #zone2running #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity #oldguyrule

Been a while since I’ve done a fartlek and boy was it hard going, enjoyable but tough. Mile warm up, 13x200m fast 13x200m walk/jog recovery finishing with a mile cool down #running #fartlek #fartlekrun #speedrun #polarrunning #runnersofmastodon #therunningcommunity #oldguyrule
