#31 – 50 runs in 100 days – Just run edition

Decided to do pulse based interval training after work.

Needed this badly since I have been having a very frustrating week. Someone is getting me in a shitty mood and I needed training and get out a lot of frustration. I cannot wait til I will have more positive energy around me. I made a decision a while ago to move away from negative energy.

First interval training where I have screamed during interval training but very healthy for my soul

Decided to wear shorts, long sleeve, flipbelt.

Of course my frustration increased when I couldn’t pair my pulse belt with my pulse watch but I decided I would do those intervals based on a feeling but lucky me the pulse was found eventually during warm up 🙂

So 2K warm up and then 4x2K intervals where I will be a couple of heart beats below my threshold pulse. Try to be around 157 (my threshold pulse is 160) because then I can get to 158 and slow down, when I get to 159 it is easy to get above 160.

First interval went fine. Got to 160 but not above. Some upwind where I have a tendecy to increase the pace but worked hard not to get above 160

Jogged during the 2 min rest

Second interval there is a uphill where I also have a tendency to increase the pace but I did not go above 160 and succeded. This interval felt VERY long.

Jogged during the 2 min rest

Third interval went fine.

Jogged during the 2 min rest

Last interval is the easiest in a way because it is the last interval

And then 2K cool down

Glad that my pulse watch finally synced with Movescount
