Updates · Running
Below are my latest updates from Mastodon (similar to X, Bluesky, Threads, etc).
15K Run
Felt hard. Despite recovery jog. My legs are busted these weeks.
3 x Sessions ✅: WODROX + Strength + 5K Run
Had to split todays activity into 3 parts. A WOD (Hyrox sim) training before work. A post work strength training (biceps, back and Squat). And a post dinner 5K run. Now I’m also very tired and done … some 2 hour of scattered training 😅
Oh … my HRV is returning to green slowly 🤞🏼🙃

1/2 Strength Training 🏋️
One of those days that calls for creativity to get the exercise in. I did half my program today: the rest will have to wait for tomorrow.
Planning on getting a short run in later in between family stuff.
13K Run 🏃♂️
Today’s run was “assisted” by some DOMS. I think it was the Sunday workout that has caused this … in particular the sandbag lunges and wall balls. It’s right in the quads 😂. Added some pace - not because my body needed it … but more because my mind needed it in order to focus and not get too bored.
HRV etc is still below normal. I know what I’m doing wrong (not allowing proper recovery), yet I stubbornly continue 🤞🏼🙃.
✅🏃♂️🏋️10K Running ( 7K Compromised )
Started with 7 x 1K runs with 6 fitness stations in between. This is called compromised running. Wall balls, lunges, farmer carry etc.
Then I took 3K easy jogging on the treadmill afterwards.
In total almost 100 minutes or so
✅ HCA Marathon
Just came home from this awesome city marathon 🤩. It was an excellent race💯🥳. Lovely route, perfect race org, nice t shirt + medal etc. Best weather I could have wished for. I optimistically decided to follow the 3H balloons … but after the first half marathon I was out of power. Perhaps I wasn’t supposed to believe I could pull this off so close to the 100 miler and also otherwise lack of real recovery🙃🫣. Ah well: still happy proud 🤠
7.5K Run
No photos from today. So screenshots instead to make up for it. Had a very easy run. Finished in time to have 24 hours of recovery until race start tomorrow … the HCA* Marathon in Odense, Denmark 🇩🇰.

My overall Garmin training readiness is “Poor” (14). Status is “Strained”. HRV is “Unbalanced”. Recovery time is “High Need” with 52 hours.
But other than that everything is fine and I should be ready for the race 🫣😂.

45min WOD 🏋️+ 7.5K Run 🏃🏽♀️
WOD Before work: strength heavy. Run after work (easy effort).
Lovely run in mild weather 🤩. As easy as possible
WOD: burpee box jumps, pushups, dumbbell snatches, kettlebell deadlifts, band assisted pull ups, dead hangs, goblet squats, Bulgarian split squats and more. I love these workouts - so much variety and novelty. So fun and also very hard 🏋️🤠.

✅ 7.5K Run && 75Min Strength
Before work: Strength training. After work: easy run. I can feel my legs need recovery now - the easy run revealed that 😂.
Work today was “easy”: Our internal IT conference day at the LEGO Group. We had a visit from Scott Hanselman 🤠😎. What a delightful session. You can probably get what the subject was about. He was amazing at giving a nuanced view on the subject👏🏻
