Kind of easy run. I run slowly but it’s still feels harder than it should be. I was thinking it could be that I don’t drink enough and also maybe my trainers are making my legs tired because they’re very high!! 🤔😂 I feel I have more bounce when I wear the old style Brooks Hyperion.
Stretches done in the morning before parkrun with Solomon.
5 bonus pts from the other day in case you were wondering why the numbers were off. At the moment it’s probably just a fact your aerobic base (engine) is quite small, but once we continue to build that, these runs will get easier, so I wouldn’t worry too much. Also probably still too quick. You were only around 30 seconds slower per km than I ran today (my easy run), yet our 5k paces are 1 min 35 seconds apart. So if you were to slow the easy run down further, you might find it’s easier from a breathing point of view. You’re likely to get more benefit (build more aerobic fitness) running a 35 minute parkrun than a 32 minute park run at the moment. It feels counterproductive but the science proves that to be the case. All that said, well done on banking the points. Any questions about what I have written just ask.
