The 1st Week Follow-Up Stats

  • Sunday 11.3. - 27K - 2 h 31 min - The first descent long run this year, +4 Celcius, spring in the air, hilly route (road) near Nuuksio National Park
  • Saturday 10.3. - 13K -66 min - nice run in the middle of the day
  • Friday 9.3. - 7K - 39 min - morning run - these have been quite rare because of my lazy bones, but afterwards it feels so good !
The first week, from Monday to Sunday (5.3. - 11.3.), of the "Follow-Up" included five runs. Altogether approximately 67 kilometres. I have not measured the routes, so there is at least 1-2 (about one mile) confidence interval in my evaluations. Anyway I ran more than last week and the long run today was pleasurable and long, indeed.

Plan of the next week: two and a half hour long run, maybe the same route as today. Also another longer than usual (about 16-20K) run during the week. Slow speed as usual. Maybe some intervals during the spring, but not yet. I do not use any kind of pulse meter, so this follow-up takes place on a firm unscientific basis, which you already mght have noticed.... The Firm Basis means that I'm telling the truth without any disturbing technical detail :-) .
