30 minutes recovery was today’s planned run, managed to keep both hr and pace nice and slow which was good considering the route was quite undulating. #running #recoveryrun #slowrunning #easyrunning #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Easy pace 40 minute loop, pace slightly higher than anticipated but heart rate in a good place today and only rose when going up some inclines but still within parameters set #running #easyrunning #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

Trust me to find somewhere with a headwind to run 45 second intervals And after a 50 minute warm up run too Anyway job done, feet up and in recovery mode #running #intervalrunning #easyrunning #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

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

Scheduled 30 minute easy pace run this morning extended to 5k … well you have to don’t you #running #easyrunning #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Starting this 10k training week with a slow and steady 50 minute 4.5 mile there and back run. Also experimenting with post run snacks to help with recovery on those faster sessions. First up overnight oats with cinnamon turmeric and peanut butter #running #easyrunning #slowrunning #runslowtorunfast #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

60 minutes easy run as part of my 10k training in 4 weeks time. Got a heavy weekend of speed sessions so didn’t want to push the pace. #running #easyrunning #10ktraining #adidasrunning #runchat #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

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

Today’s 10k training plan run was 50 minute zone 1 pace run, keeping between 7:00 and 7:20 min/km. Chose to run on the treadmill so didn’t have to worry about any hills that might affect hr so to keep in zone 1 for almost all the run was a bonus #running #easyrunning #polarrunning #10ktraining #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Scheduled slow run as part of my 10k training plan. Felt really awesome today, breathing on point hr lower than expected and no issues with knee or hamstring pain #running #easyrunning #slowrunning #adidasrunning #10ktraining #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity

Similar run to a couple of days ago, 60 minutes pace zone 2 run this time in the opposite direction as inclines not as steep just longer so not quite as strenuous on heart rate #running #easyrunning #polarrunning #ukrunchat

60 minutes easy pace running was the plan for this morning and managed to keep within pace zone 2 for practically the whole run apart from a 10 minute warm up and running a few strides to finish off the workout #running #easyrunning #polarrunning #strides #runnersofmastodon #runningcommunity

New shoes day and a recovery run to test them out. Picked up some New Balance FuelCell Propels on sale from the NB website. First impressions are good #running #recoveryrunning #easyrunning #adidasrunning #newbalancefuelcellpropel5 #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Easy run Saturday 7km zone 1/2 run with cool down walk to finish off. Kept pace and hr nice and steady today and happy with the averages for the run. Polar running index up to 45 so slowly getting back to normal #running #easyrunning #heartratetraining #adidasrunning #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

Back at it after a weekend away and an hour’s easy running on the treadmill.
15 minutes warm up, 45 minutes zone 1/2 running and 5 minutes cool down walk. Happy hr stayed in the desired zones, although it did climb towards the higher end of zone 2 which I expected running on a treadmill in the gym #running #treadmillrunning #easyrunning #recoveryrunning #adidasrunning #RunningCommunity #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule

An easy paced zone 2 treadmill run in the company of Gothenburg metal gods The Halo Effect and their brand new album March of the Unheard #running #easyrunning #treadmillrunning #adidasrunning #thehaloeffect #marchoftheunheard #melodeath #gothenburgmetal #runnersofmastodon #RunningCommunity #oldguysrule

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

Aerobic threshold zone treadmill running this afternoon. 10 minutes zone 1 warm up, 30 minutes zone 2 bordering zone 3 and 10 minutes zone 1 cool down. #running #aerobicthresholdtraining #easyrunning #treadmillrunning #polarrunning #zone2running #runnersofmastodon #runnersofmastodon #oldguysrule
