Such a bad run. So tough and so warm
No idea why it was tough for. I have done race with more hills and ran when I was warmer
But that was wild
Don’t think I got under the hour (Fitbit said 1:00:45) and I stopped once, walked a few steps and some girl shorted at me and told me to keep going and I did and that was me until the end
Sprinted as much as I could through the finishing section as fast as I could, fitbit said my max heart rate was 195, so I think I’m dead lol
Had my phone on battery saver mode, so my gps is up the left, not to worry
Ps from what I hear Paula (bib number 1) came in 164 with a time of 42.35

Thats a decent time you clocked, well done, my wee girls time was around 47 mins, havent seen her yet, the young lad never got doing it, he got a bad burn on his foot last week, he's a chef and one of his workmates dropped a scalding pot of water and part of the splash got him, so no running for him for awhile.

oh that isnt good. thats one job i always wanted to do then i found out they worked bad hours lol
47mins is very good, the other half she got 48 mins
2 mins quicker than Armagh last week
so we are going to run it again on Sunday. get up early and head down and try and match the same loop

You will have to keep up the training to try and get a bit closer to her, it was 47 minutes and so many secs, near enough 48 mins for the wee girl too, and she has been running the last 8 or 9 years on and off, your other half is a pretty good runner then, with her time, maybe this time next year you will be close to that sort of time , heh, heh.

when i look at the other halfs states they are a solid straight line, mine are a roller coaster of ups and downs. i need to smooth them out
thats the thing i have been doing it for just under a year, the other half would be doing it 5 or 6 years on and off. plus she is a tall twig and im more the bark that fell of the old tree lol

so re-did the the run from last week
not fully over the cold yet but still a bit hanging on but far better than last week, but she rained for most of the run, so i did get soaked
so many people must run that route all the time
but here is some stats
last heart profile
this weeks
such a difference in how smooth my heart rate is
so my times the official race time was 1:00:07 and todays time was 58:23, so im happy enough with that and with the race im sure slowed me done
but didnt stop, didnt need my inhaler that much, once at start and once after lap one of the lagan section and that was it.
average pace was 9:34 a mile some how
im happy enough with it, like that run. nice and flat

The fact that you knew the route today a bit better than last week, might have played a small factor to improve your time, plus no crowds of runners to worry about it, are you planning to run the route regularly now?

has fitbit done something with their setup
as my results are up the left
ran the same route, but the distance was shorter than it should have been and went a bit extra and the distance was still short
last week the other half and me, the five mile mark was pretty much the same
this week the five mile mark was past and a god bit back on its self too
so why would that be
its like last week too
way there, ran to five miles, but on the way home five mile would have been past home a good half mile, even i took the same route
