5.34K Flat run

#12 – 50 runs in 100 days – Hardcore edition
#119 – 100 Days Of Miles Challenge

I decided I would run a regular run early evening now when the temperature was perfect 13oC (55F), hardly no upwind and no rain 🙂

Best to bring headlight and reflective vest and the headlight was used during the run. I am not sure if it was goo or horse shit I was running into in the dark, before I put on th headlight. Good reason to use it when you are running in the semi dark on a gooey road. No gloves and hat.  When I did my forefoot running earlier I did not know where I could put my mobile so I left it at home but before this run I remembered I have a flipbelt. so I had a good place for mobile and keys.

The pace was not so bad.

Thought it would be colder so I actually put on a fleece, I survived but could have been without it too but did not get too warm.

Distance: 3.32 miles (5.34K), time: 33.05.5 min, average pace: 6.11 min/k, max pace: 4.57 min/k, cadence: 176, VO2 Max: 27 ml/kg/min

3.28 K Forefoot running

#11 – 50 runs in 100 days – Hardcore edition
#118 – 100 Days Of Miles Challenge

I took some time off from running after the race last weekend and when I was planning my running this weekend I realized that I had not done any forefoot running in a while.

Since the cadence did not get registered during the race last weekend it was an idea to do forefoot running to see if it was just a temporary issue and also work on my forefoot running.

I am still at 20 min forefoot running, since I had not done it in a while it would be 20 min I would do this afternoon.

Earlier today it had been grey and rainy but then the sun showed itself, the temperature was 15oC (59F), perfect.

Decided to use my regular running shoes and run around the neighbor hood on the bike paths.

Sometimes I am wondering what people think of me when I run around on my fore feet. I am not sure how it looked like.

Great colors on the trees and the leaves on the ground, it was magic running surrounded by all the Fall colors.

I who was sceptic in the beginning about forefoot running might end up bying barefoot shoes later this Spring.

Distance: 2.04 miles (3.28K), time: 20.04.5 min, average pace: 6.07 min/k, max pace: 5.13 min/k, cadence: 190, VO2 Max: 27 ml/kg/min
