Coros HR Arm Band Fun Fact (along the same lines)
So almost the same story: Fully charged the day before my 24H race 🔋. Literally only now just put it in the charger as I got a warning on my phone during today’s run saying Coros was running low on battery 🪫. Didn’t check .. but it probably still had 10-15%. Used daily ‼️
It is still a pleasure to run with too. Rock solid. Responsive on surges. Plus it gives me my VO2Max back 😆🤠😅 (apparently it measures generally lower effort)
This Friday it was “Fathers day” in Denmark 🇩🇰 . A present I got there was some awesome running shorts developed by Stephen Scullion (former Olympian ninja runner 👌🏻) from his 26.2 company (https://262clo.com). I am really happy with them so far.
What makes them unique is that they have inner shorts with a phone pocket. AND they have a zip lock at the back (for a key 🔑 etc). AND they have a huge pocket belt for gels etc.
He knows what’s needed 👌🏻😎
Garmin Enduro 3 fun fact
Remember that 24H run some 9 days ago (started Saturday a week back)….? The evening before the race I charged my Enduro 3 to 100% 🔋.
Now after that 24h race (non stop activity) a week ago and daily running ever since …. The battery is at 39%🪫 … 👌🏻🤠
I feel like I never ever charge it. Such a wonderful device ⌚️
15K Run
Mostly easy run … but with 4 x 1K faster pace in there. Not a crazy hard workout … but enough given the 24H race is just 8 days ago 🙃. I felt like the fatigue caught up with me towards- and after the last interval. I take it as I’m apparently still recovering ❤️🩹😂 (well “doh” Nicky).
Gear: Coros HR band 👌🏻😎 (still great). Saucony Endorphin Speed 5 - first time I’ve used them for speed work : they were fantastic 👌🏻⚡️.

Thank you EVERYBODY for your kind praise and support 🥳🙏🏻🙌🏻. I hope I have reacted to all your messages by now 🤗- if I have missed yours it is not intentional, it is merely because there have been so many kind messages that I am loosing my overview 😅🫣 (I have really tried to click on all messages and recognize your support 🫶🏼)
Mastodon’s running community (you folks) are the best 🙇🏻♂️🥳
| 24 Timer ved Havet | Danish Championship in 24 hours running ✅ |
It was a looong race. Got in 3rd 🥉 in my age group = podium 🤯😂🙌🏻. Position 15 of 85. 194 kilometers. Two sleep pauses … I had to experiment with this as my body refused to run. It worked wonders 🤯🤩🤠👌🏻. RECOMMENDATION: sleep when body stops 😆

Getting excited now 😂😆. I don’t plan on much interaction on my smart phone until tomorrow after the race 😆. See you on the other side 😂🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️.
7.5K Run 🏃🏽♀️
Tapering again again again 😂. Ultra race in 4 days. Still running in my race day shoes: Saucony Endorphin Speed 5s. They are fantastic*. I am somewhat happy that I was so unfortunate that I had to panic buy new shoes for the race 😂.

*It is hard to tell exactly what makes them so good. It’s not that they are my softest or fastest shoes. But they feel incredibly efficient somehow. A sweet spot - perhaps - for faster than easy perhaps…TBD
