Day 365+75 - Sunny, breeze, cold, damp.
An off road Wilbur dog wander along the trackways. Scrutinising the freshly plowed field edge for interesting finds while taking too many photos on a lovely morning.

Ultra-runners; very interesting podcast about fuelling with Paul Booth of Salomon;
1. Start slow with carbs in long races
2. Gut issues often linked to dehydration
3. More carbs not always better (risks upsetting gut)

Stats for a run: 21.61 km at a 5:52 min/km pace.
A view from a bluff out toward the ocean. There are plenty of small bushes and some pine trees on the edge of the bluff. The sun is coming from behind, so the ocean floor is visible in places. There are three pairs of swans on the water. The ocean is a deep blue and the sky is baby blue with a few fluffy thin clouds.
A view from a barren limestone cliff, with a few tiny juniper bushes clinging to the edge. There's grass on the cliff, but it's brown. The ocean is sapphire blue and the sky is baby blue, with a very few fluffy wisps of cloud.
A long view from a limestone cliff along the coast. The cliff is mostly covered with brown grass. In the distance, you can make out the skyline of a medieval town (if you know what you're looking for). Even further away, there's a single skyscraper. The sky is baby blue, with lots of fluffy white clouds over land and almost none over the ocean.
Lovely day for a long run. First oystercatchers sighted (no picture, though), which means spring is coming. A gaggle of swans and the long view back home (gave me range anxiety the first time I saw it). #trailrunning #runsky #running
Too old for back-to-back 🍻 sessions and unhealthy eating. 😖
Real struggle today! ~4 1/2 miles at 10'17 pace.
Cucumber and Carrot sticks with Hummus today methinks.

12+ inches of snow through the night and day, but the plows came through. Stuck to the residentials to the low rumble of snow blowers and snowy winds. [28F, 15 mph wind] #running #runsky #run
Run around glover Park, Washington DC

Slowly building back up after a torn labrum in my right hip last September. Feels like I'll be able to push towards 5 miles next weekend maybe. Another marathon feels pretty far away at the moment! #running #fitnessafter40 #runsky #recovery

Took my time to appreciate a few trees along my route on this cloudy #sundayrunday. I’ve been enjoying a book about trees that has given me a new appreciation for them and a new perspective for my runs and hikes. 🌳💕#motherrunner #BAMR #runsky
Fab run here in Charlotte NC, flying home tomorrow. 8°C & the music seemed to assist the effort needed on the inclines. Looking forward to running at home. Must admit Jessie J’s Price Tag is perfect for bounding up hills.

Woohoo! Finally achieved the fully green bar! I've still a lot to improve on, but what a contrast to the "overreaching" and "strained" statuses I was getting 18 months ago, when I was half marathon training while anaemic with bowel cancer and didn't know. #Running #RunSky #BowelCancer 💚
Well, would you look at that. I have a Zone 5 heart rate, a huge hangover, and head full of regrets. Sometimes, the camera does indeed lie. #running #runsky #ukrunchat #runchat
Go out. Do hard things. Set new records.

Not feeling great today but wanted to stick to my intended miles. Last 1.5 miles did me dirty. #runsky #runnersofbluesky
A post-run selfie of me, my pal and my sister in law. The bottom of the photo displays the following info about our run: 10.02km distance, 1:09:39 total time, 6:57 /km average pace.
A 10k with the gals while home for Mother’s Day weekend 🌸 found it tougher than usual but pushed through! 🏃🏻♀️ #running #runsky

Long run Sunday. This run felt good. My feet started to get sore around mile 11, so it may be time to swap in the new shoes I have been breaking in on shorter runs the last couple weeks. 🏃♂️. #running #runsky
Another 5k done. Ready for the warm spring weather to remain. #RunSky
First trail race. HR strap came undone in the first mile, was in a pack of 5 that went the wrong way at the end and ran an extra .25 miles or so but otherwise success!

My Strava summary
Pace targets in the first two blocks achieved but I couldn’t hit the final 2km target. Good run though.
Garmin badge for running 10km today.
The first 8km of my #LongRunSunday went great and I hit the pace targets in my Runna plan. The last 2km were hard and I struggled.
Week 5 of training completed.

Week 13 / Day 7 👟
Did it tired. Grateful for a cutback next week and looking forward to hitting some trails out of town next weekend.
#marathontraining #runsky
Amazing race and experience
learned lessons
Knew in first 3 miles that a 3:30 was off the table but kept pushing till mile 6
Stomach went sideways and puked for 10 miles
While struggling, the support from the crowds made me tear up more than once
Recovered and managed a PB

The best way to spend a rainy sunday. A long #run topped off with an ice bath and swedish fika.

Easy run today, no walking. Post injury training going well. Looking forward to the next run! #runsky #shinsplintrecovery

Tomorrow's run will also be a sluggish one 😖

5 km recovery from long run, Gatmin was against it, but I think it was a good idea. Sunny Sunday to everyone, its raining here ☔️ #Runsky #Running #Runningpunks
