Training – 3nd September 2018

Straight walk for 3k. Was actually 3.3k, but Endomondo tracked 3.3k before my Fitbit did.

Training – 30th August 2018

6 intervals today, back to running for each of the fast-walk intervals

Changed the run schedule a bit in @endomondo — Wednesday I’m normally late due to office stuff and Friday… well, Happy Hour ^_^

So next run is now Sunday with a 4x 2min run/1min walk interval.

Training – 27nd August 2018

8 intervals today with two short ones (and that threw me a bit)

Spotted a sign from the local council on a lamp post on the run near the end — apparently, they’d found 2 dead fox cubs with no injuries, implying they had been poisoned, which is in violation of a Wildife Act or something along those lines.

Then on the lamp post opposite “Dog Owners, don’t let your dogs poop on the pavement, clean up after them. You know who you are”

Someone hates animals it seems…

 

Training – 22nd August 2018

First day training back with @endomondo — more a walk today, but I ran a bit during the “fast-walk” intervals.

I used Endomondo for the voice prompts, but tracked the main workout with my fitbit. This led to my graph being a bit out of sync with the workout graph…

Next run is on Thursday. Well, it’s a walk rather than run…. But start slow, and build up, I guess

Training – 21st August 2018

I tried (for the second time) to do the next run in the C25K ZenLabs, which was a 22min run I got halfway, then dropped to a walk :(

I checked out Strava’s Premium Fitness Plan offering and dislike it immediately (for a 5K training, it wants you to run 1-1.5 hours as the first run. Seriously?!)

I went back to Endomondo (who have been acquired by Under Armor since I last used them) and their Fitness Plan offering hasn’t changed so reactivated my premium and will start with their C25K tomorrow.

The Right Mindset…

So this guy did 650 + 650 + 100 km….. Impressive.

But it does prove the effectiveness of having the right mindset.
