Side run. 3km @ 5:54 min/km

Tracks: ZR (Beta track here), Endomondo, Strava

Target: 7km @ 5:54 – 6:02 min/km

Achieved: 5.1 km @ 5:34 min/km (Strava measurement)

Endomondo really screwed up measurements on this run, for some reason, registering that I ran 5.06 km in 5d:3h:03m:20s. Uh, sure – I can crawl 5 km in less time than that. Sure, I was below the 7km I was aiming for, but that’s because I did the wrong route and went my 5km route instead of 7km.

In other news, I had my first Zombie attack on my base:

But it would take 5 materials to fix, and I don’t have that (it would take me 2 runs to do that, and I’d much rather extend my base first)

I also encountered two bugs — a base render corruption:

And a duplication of messages (Okay, I heard you the first time!)

Next run:  Thursday — 5km Intervals: 5:36 – 6:02 min/km pace

10K Training – Day 17: Getting Faster – Day 13

Tracks: ZR (Beta track here), Endomondo, Strava

Target: 5km @ 7:43 min/km. Target Finish: 38:35 mins

Achieved: 9.99 km @ 6:08 min/km, 1:01:20 hrs Completion. I wanted to try to run a 10K today, being a bank holiday. Whilst I did it, I fell way short of my target sub-1 hour time. MyASICS has detected my general slow down in pace and offered to adjust the pace in my plan (which I accepted).

In addition, I did the second Zombies, Run! race mission, which was, ironically, 10K, and it fit in quite nicely with the run. Considering the missions drive by distance and not time, they overlay the music, rather than stopping it, so you can hear the music still going in the background whilst the audio is being played.

Next run: Tuesday – 7km @ 5:54 – 6:02 min/km

Achieved: 5.45km @ 6:00 min/km pace. Reverted to an older route but wasn’t able to keep my pace up well enough.

Tracks: ZR (Beta track here), Endomondo, Strava

Target: 3km Intervals 5:23 – 5:47 min/km

Achieved: 2.64 km @ 5:53 min/km. My ZR track was just to finish one of my previous missions, and as soon as the mission ended, I had a zombie chase. I stopped the run there, and it logs as a failed evade. :-( Mind you, one thing I did learn from the zombie chase is that a slow jog to a fast jog doesn’t help. It has to be a full sprint.

Next run: Saturday – 5 km: 5:39 – 5:47 min/km. Completion Time Target: 28:15 – 28:55
