Training – 17th June 2019

10-interval run today, with 2-minute run/2-minute walk intervals. Target distance was 5.34 km, ran 7.24km according to Endomondo, 6.87 according to Strava and FitBit

Training – 8th June

After several days of missed runs due to rain, I finally got a run in, in between bouts of showers.

Strava and FitBit logged this run at 4.66 km, but Endomondo logged it as 5km

Training – 2nd June

Today and yesterday were hot days to run in (~25degC) and today’s run was a 9-interval,

6 of 60sec run/30sec walk and 3 of 30sec run/60sec walk

Training – 27th May

No schedule C25K run today, so I went for a lap around the park with the intention of checking my 12-minute test run distance (aka Cooper Test)

Cooper Test: 2.13km, average pace 5:42 min/km. Endomondo shows a blip towards the end, but Strava doesn’t. And they’re both fed from my FitBit and while that does indeed show a blip, it’s not as extreme as the one in the Endomondo feed.

Regarding the test results. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooper_test, my results (2130m sits in the “good” range, but just about (2100-2500)) my record is 3.78km — though that was assisted by a downhill ^_^

 

Training – 23rd May

Lovely hot day today so a run in the park for my C25K plan with 4x 2 minute run intervals. Although the plan wanted a specific speed, there was no way I could jog that slow. Let’s hope the plan adapts…
