I'm still running, just not posting while I take a bit of a social media break. Keep after it #runsky community!

I’m working on the same thing. Down to 2 cups a day from 3. Gonna start working my way down to 1 here soon

This morning’s run was 5x1km repeats on the treadmill, mainly for pace assistance and to keep dry. Wet week ahead, so might be spending a bit more time at the gym. Additional 2 miles for warm up and cool down

Decided 10 miles in the rain was better than 10 miles on the treadmill this afternoon. Despite the rain and getting soaked, it was a great run!

Decided to do my tempo run at the gym this morning. 6 miles at around 8:13 min/mile with warmup and cooldown. Mostly kept the treadmill at a 1% incline, but dropped it down to 0 for a couple miles in the middle

Week 4, Day (night?) 1. Easy 6-mile night run. Was inspired by yesterday’s halftime show to check out some new music. Feeling good!

10-mile long run this morning. Felt amazing and I’m super happy with the paces I was able to hit and stay in zone 2 for the vast majority of the run. Great cap to a slightly inconsistent week.

That should say lap distance but autocorrect is dumb

It is!

Yeah, it more accurately tracks the Leo distance that way

Not gonna post the run stats because I messed up and forgot to put the watch in track mode for the first few laps. But 6x600m threshold repeats with about 1.5ish miles warm up and cool down. Speed work is hard and having to cool down uphill is harder

That’s probably the only way I’d ever do a triathlon

Week 3, day 1. Really had to fight the urge to not go back to sleep this morning. Got out and got it done. Easy 6 miles on the books.

Nicely done!

Practically balmy for the last day of January, so took the 3-year-old out on my 8-mile long run in the stroller. 2nd week of marathon training in the books!

First above freezing morning for a while made for an easy 6 mile run. Felt nice to not need to bundle up quite as much as the past couple weeks

6 treadmill miles with some strength training to wrap up. Feeling good post-run and looking forward to closing out this week strong over the next couple days.

I’ve found the trick to getting it to stay. And then it charges super fast. I’ve been happy with it for the last couple years. I’ll get another Coros when this one dies

1.5(ish) mile warm up, 8x400m repeats, 1.5(ish) mile cooldown. Didn’t quite hit the paces I wanted and was meant to do a few more repeats, but not bad for my first speed session in a while. Also, found out how to more easily combine images with post-run data in Coros!

Productive afternoon. 6 miles on the treadmill and then meal prepping for the next couple weeks of lunches. Gonna just take my first week of marathon training as a bust and start strong with week 2

Not my first choice, but it’s too hilly to run here when the roads are slick

Felt like I was on a roller coaster for this morning’s run. Cold morning, but I bundled up pretty well. Easy 7 in the books

I live on top of a hill and am also in a pretty hilly town. Most of my easy routes come with some significant elevation change

Getting over yet another cold has put a slight damper on the start of my marathon training. Should be able to put in at least 26 miles this week, might see about pushing it to 30 with a couple longer runs. First speed session on Monday!
#running #runsky

Planned to do more lifting this morning than I ended up doing, but couldn’t quite get myself up in time for a full session. Future plans are to have a separate day for strength training this block. 6 miles on the treadmill with some slight strength work at the end

Week 1, Day 1. 6 easy miles. Felt great about that run and managed to keep my average heart rate in a good spot despite some of the hills on that route. Had to get a bit bundled up against the cold and light snow

A light dusting of snow and slick roads kept me inside again for an 8 mile easy run. Decided to try watching a show to pass the time and it generally helped. Got 3 episodes of Lazarus in. Fun fight scenes and a great soundtrack kept me engaged enough

I love with the Backyards that everyone but the last person standing is a DNF

6 miles on the treadmill. Quite foggy this morning and I was worried about the possibility of icy roads. Last 3 miles were at 1% incline and still felt strong, so I’ll start doing that for all my treadmill runs moving forward. An hour on a treadmill is such a slog though

6 miles this morning. Last week before I hop into the 18-week Hanson’s plan for my Spring Marathon. Finally got the new shoes out on the road. Looking forward to putting more miles on them. Also, that newest Lady Gaga album slaps
