Run --
w/u (6.3k easy)
5k progressing from steady to subT [5:03, 4:56, 4:42, 4:43, 4:33], so 23:57 total
c/d

14.5k total, 1:20:30

Notes

Well, that was a glorious run. Easy pace was popping from the start (same effort and HR as I usually target, but like 30s/k faster). Then hitting a 23:xx 5k after 6k+ of easy running with HR splits [162, 165, 170, 171, 175] like that is pretty exciting. Fitness is actually coming.

Nice, nailed it. Unsurprisingly, oing the rep on a smaller loop makes it easier to be consistent.

10k / 54:00 total

Notes

Feeling tired but fitness is clearly coming, the ideal I guess. Rep HRs were like 159/165/168, with a max at 173, so that's a good sign. Probably will bump up 5-10 when it gets hot again.

Notes

Bit flat, got the lift done in like 25 mins, just not feeling in the mood for much more than that. Guess I'm really in a gym maintenance phase.

Run 11 days in a row, lol, that's defo a PR, not sure I ever did 6 in a week before this block even. Taking easy days turbo slow definitely helps with that.

Starting an exciting new job in like 10 days' time which will mean more work, so getting as much training in as I can in the run-up. Will see how training adapts to that.

Run --
7 easy, 4 moderate [5:08, 4:59, 4:55, 4:51], 1 easy, 2 moderate [4:53, 4:56), c/d

Total -- 17.61, 1:42:23

Notes

Probably longer and harder than is strictly wise, but I needed 17.1 to get to 60k for the week so decided to it. Then went on a 3 hour walk with a buddy after showering, so pretty long day in the sun. Hydrated a lot pre, on, and immediately after run, but not judiciously during the walk, so feeling a bit grim now.

Think this is narrowly my longest every run (17.27k back in 2018 the closest).

Notes

Furthering the uncanny parallels with LBSS, as predicted by the "grim" feeling, I had a headache rest of the day and through the night. Managed to sleep eventually but not pleasant. Gone in the morning until...an incredible thunderstorm broke out during a lateral raise set. Exactly at that moment I got a different epic headache radiating from right trap up to top right of skull.

I do often get pretty bad headache with pressure chage/sudden weather shifts, but then it also hit my neck/trap which is a bit unusual. That area was cramping some yesterday evening. probably just perfect storm of a...a storm, needlessly hard run, and poor hydration management in the afternoon (tho I was really ploughing back the water all evening to try to catch up, just felt like it "wasn't absording" somehow -- not an electrolytes issue i think had lots of salt, fruit etc).

Anyway, headache + storm means no run today, which was probably a good idea anyway.

Run -- 5.7k, 40 mins

Notes

Okay cool to hit the big milestone of 60k etc, but probs not worth it in terms of net training load over time to cook oneself so thoroughly. Session tmrw tho.

Notes

If HR is to be believed, and I guess it should since it's from an H10 chest strap, then I need to be upping the paces soon. HR maxed at 171, rep avg 154/160/162/164/166 in 23 C weather. Legs still don't feel great though, but I guess I should just ignore that and respect the facts.
