I got back to running today with a Threshold / VO2 Max type run.
Warm up, 3km at half marathon pace then intervals 5mins down to 1 min at VO2 Max, cool down

Simple easy paced run with some sprints thrown in. Garmin has finally now reclassified me as “Productive” 😆

Just wasn’t with it today (under the weather), so I set out a fartlek type run for my intervals session but I just couldn’t do much speed, difficult to breathe. That’s all part of winter eh

Today’s long run after it’s been raining throughout the night, puddles and mud everywhere but at least it wasn’t raining on me during my run 😄

Getting back into the difficult VO2 Max sessions 😮💨
12x500m at 6:26/mile (4min/km), this should definitely boost my anaerobic effort.
Mostly got them on target within 5s or so, a few outliers though when there was hills on my route 😬 but overall happy (that it’s over).

Went too fast on today’s long run and turned into a tempo run 🏃♂️ ah well it’s done now
I must admit I loved the colder weather, wrapped up the legs and arms today.

That was my first winter type run in the dark this evening (yeah I know it’s autumn). It was pitch black in areas so need to be careful I don’t do something stupid like twist my ankle . The run type was a short easy paced run.

Today’s long run was in the rain and weirdly I enjoyed it. Makes a change as only 4 weeks ago to the day, I was melting in the Berlin marathon. I threw in some sprints also as I’m really lacking anaerobic work these days.

Today’s workout intention was a Tempo run today consisting of:
10mins warmup,
21 mins Tempo - 07:40 per mile (4:45 /km)
10mins cool-down
It was great getting a bit of speedwork back into the mix 🏃♂️

45‑min run yesterday, pushed the pace after a small group of oncoming pedestrians blocked the entire path. One shouted as I squeezed passed. I asked them to share the space with others.
Runners and walkers — let’s be considerate and share the path. You don’t own it and neither do I.

Berlin marathon done 🔥 3:30 target, 3:30:33 reality in 26°C heat and 83% humidity.
Hot day, hard effort, and a finish I’m proud of. Grateful for every cheer, every gel, and every open cup of water.
Took a break from socials to soak it all in and enjoy the moment 😊

An easy 5km today. Not much to say as it’s the final taper week. Legs need plenty of rest for whats up ahead.

Today’s intention was a Tempo run with 4 intervals of 5mins at 7:25/mile + 2 mins recovery.
Pace was ok, quads still feel fatigued though. I only plan 2 short runs between now & Berlin to allow them to freshen up.
