Updates · Running
Below are my latest updates from Mastodon (similar to X, Bluesky, Threads, etc).
8K Evening Run
I never do this: evening runs. Unless - like today - I have to. We attended a family party celebrating a new highschool graduation. And for some reason I didn’t plan very well and got my run done in the morning 🤦🏻♂️. So I did it after we got home instead.
Now I can’t sleep. Adrenaline pumping. Need to wind down for an hour at least 😆. But I got my run in … which is the most important thing 🤗✅👌🏻
Goodnight mastodons 🥱
15K with 5 x 1K Vo2Max
Runna prescribed 8 (8! 🤯) tough intervals. But after 5 intervals I didn’t find more motivation for the rest. So I stopped at that - having met the pace targets so far. I even ran in my Metaspeed carbon plate shoes …. But it didn’t help much. At work I was already considering to have an easy run. Guess it wasn’t my day today 🤷🏻♂️
Runna wants to decrease my pace targets as a result. But no ! 🧐😂 Not yet 🙃
Meh! I’ll be back 🦿

And btw this was also where I crossed 3000 kilometers of running for the year so far. Much more than the previous years 👌🏻🥳
I won’t have quite the same volume for the remaining months though. Going to relax a bit on that part 😂
7.5K Run
Ran to a very tiny “forest” 🌳 … then I repeated an “X” kind of pattern there quite a bunch of times 👌🏻☀️🤗
☀️🏃🏻♂️👌🏻 25K Runs
My wife joined me today, on her bike while I was running. We stopped to meet the boys on a cafe near LEGOLAND / Lalandia (bath dome thingie). Grabbed some cake there and ran home alone. Then back on bike to play mini golf ⛳️👌🏻☀️🤩
I mixed in 6K tempo pace - as 2 x 3K with 1K recovery.
22K - with my wife on her bike… to cafe

3.5K - run back home from café

Good morning 😃☀️ - whOooiOoot happened while I was sleeping? 😴
I haven’t found out what happened with Hans - perhaps he hit the wall big time due to the record leading push. In any case … looks like top 4 all ran faster than Jim’s previous course record 🤯🤯
On the women’s side Jennifer beat Courtney’s course record 🤯🤯
I am impressed about how long Hayden Hawks fought on … dropping many places before DNF’ing after 13h23m … admirable 😎
Another update: Hans is still in the lead 🤯🤩 - this young guy destroying the GOATs 😂
Isn’t that amazing? 🍿🎥🏃🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️
Crazy watching them blazing through Miller’s Defeat. 54K through … 1/3 of the race … they look like they are sprinting (and I mean … there’s elevation behind them and around them right there 😎👌🏻💪🏼💪🏼)
Most insane field 👌🏻🤯. Very veeeeery interesting
Meanwhile on my TV 🤗🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️. Troyer leading … Walmsley, Jornet etc behind … I still don’t get why they didn’t give me a special invite to participate (just to push the field a bit 😂)
