5.11K Flat Run

#1 – 50 runs in 100 days – Just run edition

I was suppose to run my first run in this challenge yesterday but my weaker me won so I decided I would run when I got back from work tonite.

Temperature: 15oC (59F)

I decided I would be tough and wear my Spring/Fall compression tights, long sleeve, no gloves and hat 🙂

My flipbelt came in handy tonite where I could keep my key and mobile phone.

First run this year that I felt that spring really was hear in the city. So much greener, birds singing. Hope it will go in the right direction from now on. I want a bit warmer temperature.

Nice pace from the beginning. Just slowed now for a short moment when I was running uphills.

Nice way of starting the weekend.

Tomorrow it will be a trail run at my favorite spot and a longer run, need to see in what shape I am in for my first ultra race in June. It is going to be interesting to see how wet or dry it is.

5.14K – Flat Run

#30 – 50 runs in 100 days – No excuses edition

Turned out that this run actually is the last run for me in the challenge that ends at midnight. The next challenge said it was going to start April 19th 0.05 but is actually April 20th 0.05.

When I left work the sun came out and it felt good to know that I would run a 5K run when I got back home.

Temperature: 12.5oC (54.5F)

It was nice getting out even if it was fresh winds.

The pace was ok, felt that I was influenced by that I was tired. Have not managed to get to bed in time this week but work on it 🙂

When the sun came out in the afternoon I just had to go out for a run before it got dark.

Temperature: 7oC (45F)

It is February and wouldn’t mind getting more snow that stayed a bit longer but not wet and icy but dry would be perfect but today it felt that Spring is getting ready. I heard the birds singing, the fields was green

In the beginning I had a good pace but then I slowed down, it was more tired legs, I think that I am still tired in my legs after Monday’s intervals.

Nicer today to run because it was no rain and the sun was out and brightened the run
