Pitfichie forest again, an early run before a later meeting. Fab sunshine and a 🦊 on the track. Lovely views although I’m not used to the hills.

History of England podcast? Must admit I hated History at school, it was taught so badly, but I’ve enjoyed many history audiobooks in the last few years of running.

Pitfichie forest run in the rain - it was thoroughly enjoyable 👍. The stone circle is 4000-4500 years old 😲. Hopefully I’ll get in a few more early runs here during the week - and the weather will be better👍

Visiting Aberdeenshire where I lived for >20yrs and taking the opportunity to run some trails. An easy 8 miles in the sun, though more hilly than at home 😬

6x400m intervals this morning. Normally a plodder I find these easier than 4x1 mile intervals. At least I met the pace target although at 131 bpm my Garmin watch may be underestimating my HR. Enjoyed it.

Bon voyage and I hope the race goes well. Enjoy 👍

Easy run this morning, overcast, dry and 12°C. Trying to keep HR below 113 bpm except in the strides in the last mile. Enjoying my 175 bpm playlist. Audioslave’s ‘I am the highway’ is my current fave.

My mantra - basically enjoying your running is foundational, everything else (pace and distance) can be built on that. No point in running if it’s not fun.

I’m in the same place, 66 and enjoying the running, camaraderie and community encouragement more than ever.

That’s just beautiful. Thank you for your loving care 👏👏👏

Lots of Strava records 👏👏👏

4 x 1 mile intervals this morning. Tough going as it was well above my normal pace but strangely enjoyable and a good learning experience. I find there are positives in every run.

Hope the new job works out, is an enjoyable environment unlike the last one and no bathroom photos are required 👍

Christopher Hitchens day.

Congratulations, great achievement 👏👏👏👏

I agree with your post. This is a meme I created to describe what I feel about running. Even at 66 I’m passionate about running and probably appreciate the benefits of running more than when I first started.

Easy morning run with some strides at the end. Blue skies, frost, no wind - perfect running conditions. Monday miles always feel good - great to start the week by feeling you’re ahead on the training plan.

Easy paced run this morning with some strides at the end. Garmin HRM working today after turning my watch off and on. Enjoyed being in the sun and listening to my audiobook - lectures on Norman conquest.

Yay, lots to cheer about! Congratulations 👏👏👏

Great achievement 👏👏. Feel rightly proud!

Random music or do you, like me, choose music to match your cadence? I find that really helps.

An hour on a treadmill - I can only ever manage 30mins🥱. Well done 👏👏👏

A planned slow, low HR, 6 miles this morning although my Garmin wrongly measured my HR >145 in the first mile. Swapped wrists and the watch behaved! Nice, slow, fun although a bit chilly 🥶

Rain seems to be forecast for most of the month ahead 😢

6x400m intervals this morning. Not used to speed work but I hit the target zone and strangely enjoyed the run.

Welcome back to sunny Liverpool

Me too…..8 miles in the sun. A bit of sunshine makes the run even more enjoyable.

Slow, low HR run this morning. Marvellous Spring sunshine, perfect weather to be out.

Intervals this morning - tough going against the breeze. Getting good advice from ChatGPT to mix up these intervals with 6x400m sessions
Cruise intervals = building your engine
400s = increasing your ceiling
