Name’s Chris, 5 years retired and counting. Dreadlocks since 2002. Love running, music especially metal, quality beers, bourbons and ryes.
Not the best run I’ve done but at least I’ve some guidelines to work with. Planned on running 10k but with my chest feeling tight and needing to slow to a walk on numerous occasions, I decided to call it a day after 4 miles #running #adidasrunning #thresholdrunning #runsky #runchat

Another Christmas Eve jog round the block. 6.5 km/4 miles with 5 minutes warm up and cool down. Not the best run I’ve had tbh couldn’t keep hr in the right zone without a lot of jeffing done but as usual glad I got out there. Merry Christmas 🎅🏼🎅🏼🏃🏼🏃🏼🤘 #running #adidasrunning #runsky #runchat

8k treadmill run done experimenting with how far it takes to go between LT1
and LT2 at a set speed. So pace set to 8kph, 1st lap at LT1 157 bpm 2.31 km 15:20 min and then at 8k, 175 bpm 53.20 min. Hope to improve on that over time, either faster pace for same hr or lower hr for same pace #running

Treadmill run this morning, 5 minutes warm up then 40 minutes pace set to 8kph. Hr average 143 bpm max 154 bpm. Last time I ran a similar session, hr average was 135 bpm so some work needed to return to previous fitness levels #running #treadmillrunning #runsky #runchat

Decided to set a baseline for future runs, hoping to see some improvement ready for next years races. 30 minutes zone 2 with 5 minutes warm up. Hr up towards the end on a final climb but on the whole managed to keep within the limits #running #easyrunning #zone2running #corosrunning #runsky #runchat

A little less jeffing done today, just on some uphills although was running more in tempo zone this time round. Pace still not up to previous standards but trying not to get too discouraged as fitness will return in the future #running #adidasrunning #runsky #runchat

Today’s run … well more run/walk was to keep hr in zone 1 so plenty of jeffing done. 6 weeks not running has meant fitness has took a tumble and needs a lot of time to get back to where I was before #running #aerobicbasebuilding #adidasrunning #runsky #runchat

Another easy 5k and a bit. Still keeping to a nice gentle pace for now, hoping to pick up speed as the weeks go on #running #aerobicbasebuilding #corosrunning #runchat #runsky

Managed a good amount of steps yesterday, almost 11,000 and virtually pain free. Will take it easy today maybe a few light exercises to strengthen the area #herniaoperation #runningfitness
