Easy run 13K @ 1:17:00

Ties longest sub-6' pace ever, but today average pace was 5:55 , previous was 5:57 , so that is again some kind of silly  :personal-record: :ibrunning:

31 March

Low aerobic zone run

9.5K @ 1:14:27 . 7:50 pace / 132bpm

So that is the fastest low aerobic run ever ( previous was 7.5K@7:55 ) AND with lowest average HR (previous was 134 ).  :personal-record: :ibrunning:

Willing to continue this experiment (low aerobic zone) for the rest February and all March. I missed last week's such run but i expect to start seeing improvements the next (2) time(s).

I started late February, pace needed to stay below 140bpm was 8:34. Progress is evident, and also i see general progress in all running stuff i do, every session is a PR lately! I can't attribute that to low HR zone training only, but im sure it plays an important role, looks like it was the missing link to bring balance and help break plateaus. I'm keeping it.

3 April

Tempo run:

3K slow jog warmup
3x1.5K / 2 minutes walking rest
1K slow jog cool down

Target pace for the 1500s was 5:06
I got 4:51 / 4:54 / 4:59

That was brutal! Did this run in the midday sun at the hottest day of the year so far. Not too hot but body was totally shocked.
Very happy hat i got all sprints paces below 5:00!

4 April : 5K walking

5 April

Easy run 13.5K @ 1:18:40 ( 5:49 pace )

Yet again this is the longest and fastest sub 6' pace run ever, previous was lat week's 13K @ 5:50  :personal-record: :ibrunning: :personal-record: :ibrunning:

This fast-easy run PR every week is fun and nice and all, but i am becoming worried it is trapped in the  too-slow-for-fast-and-too-fast-for-slow area. I should:
  • Stick to the training pace calculator target pace, for easy run and my fitness level it is 6:07
  • Re-evaluate that fitness level. Its been 4 months since last 5K time trial and there is strong evidence i am faster now

9 April : 3K walk
11 April : 5K walk

10 April:

2.5K warmup
5K TIME TRIAL : 23:06  :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record: :wowthatwasnutswtf: :ibrunning: :headbang: :almostascoolasnyancat:
Watch also said it included an in-race 1K PR of 4:17 (previous was 4:27 ) and a lifetime mile PR of 7:05 ( previous was 7:19 )  :personal-record: :ibrunning: :personal-record: :ibrunning:

Previous 5K PR was 24:09, over a whole minute of improvement!!! Such a rewarding feeling, it feels even better than my first race that i PRed from 27:30 to 25:20, going from 24 to 23 is a really great achievement and very motivational for me to keep pushing. I thought that was it, my plateau is low 24/high 23. But its not. I'm now chasing 4:30 average / 22:30 5K.
Go get it.

12 April

Easy run 14K @ 1:20:32 ( 5:45 pace )

3rd week in a row that i score a longest and fastest sub 6' pace run ever, previous PR was last week's 13.5K @ 5:49 :personal-record: :ibrunning: :personal-record: :ibrunning:

Re-evaluated pace for easy runs is 5:52 so im right on target.

Also, i want to note how accurate those calculators turn to be. All my recent performances, for easy/tempo/VO2max/speed form, all synced perfectly with that calculator (updated with Saturday's 5K PR , see new signature).
Even more, the 5K time to VO2max calculator says my VO2max is barely over 42 , 42.06. Well, garmin said i went to 42 from 41 right after achieving this PR.
It feels so great when everything falls in place.

13 April

ATG PAUSED SQUAT ( tempo 3:2:1  ):
5x12 @ 25kg
Finisher 35 @ 25kg ( +2 reps ) Skipped, legs dead from 2 big lifetime running PRs the previous 3 days, decided to show them some mercy.

SS1a : PUSHUPS : 15 @ BW
SS1b : BENT OVER ROWS : 15 @ 25kg
SS1 info : 7 rounds
Finisher:
PUSHUPS : 30@BW
BENT OVER ROWS : 33 @ 25kg ( + 3reps )

As of this Monday i started doing 16:8 intermittent fasting as an experiment. I've semi-tried it unsuccessfully in the past, but i haven't read enough. Back then I was thinking that a few calories like 50-100 in the morning do not interrupt the fast, but they do. Going more strict this time, the only thing besides water I'm consuming in the 16 hours fasting window is my morning coffee, no sugar/milk added. Lets see how it works...

Good luck with IF, ive done 16/8 or similar for years now and gound it beneficial from a fat loss and keeping fat off point of view. I find my focus is better whilst fasted and do nearly all my runs fasted. Also think it's great to get up and get on with my day rather than worrying about getting my 'most important meal of the day' in. Plus if im ever in a situation where i can't eat its way easier to cope with. Black coffee is a constant though and certainly helps with appetite suppression.

^ x 2.

Also remember if you ever struggle with headaches or anything like that to up your salt intake. I often add some to my water bottle in the morning.
