We have been out running in a beautiful weather, the summer has come to Denmark for sure now !

First Tine and I did her 25 minutes and she did good as our speed was a little higher than usual. Now she is only one day from finishing her running program that ends with 30 minutes.

After that I went out for my 5540 meters with a max pulse of 155. Don’t know if it was the 5 more heartbeats per minutes or if I was just faster today but I ended up with a total time of 27:10 and a pace of 4:54 min/Km. Feels nice to be under the 5:00 min/Km again

Just home from our running today. The weather started out cloudy and a bit cold but before we got home it was sunshine and pretty warm.

First Tine and I did her 23 minutes so now she only got 2 days left of running to reach the end of her program.

Then I did my 6040 meters as this is a recovery week for me. I will run a little less than last week to not push my body all the time. For some reason my pace was on recovery too as it was quite a bit slower than expected… 5:07 minute/Km.

Today Tine and I did her 26 minutes according to her schedule, the longest so far. She did good and now she is only one week from finishing her program that ends with 30 minutes of running.

After that I went out for my 6660 meters. It went quite easy so the only annoying thing was that I had to keep my pulse below 150 when I both can and wanted to go faster. In spite of that I did the 6660 meters in 33:33 witch gives a pace of 5:01 minute/km and that’s a bit faster than last Tuesday.

Today Tine and I did her 23 minutes of running. Sadly she didn’t feel to good but she managed to do all of the 23 minutes so if you ask me I think she did very good !

After that I did my 5540 meters. This time I was allowed a max. pulse of 160 and I have to say that it made it all much more fun. I’m holding quite a lot back when I run with a max of 150 but this year I will try to keep out of injuries so that’s why I’m holding back.
As I said it was fun to be allowed to run faster, and I did the 5540 meters in 26:40 equals a pace of 4:48 minute/km….. I’m looking forward to see with an even higher pulse….

Once again we are home from running…

Tine and I did her 21 minutes according to her schedule without problems other than she feels it’s hard work. But I think she is very happy as she is only 5 days from her goal of running 30 minutes and I’m very proud of her.

After that I did my 6660 meters according to my own program. That took me 33 minutes and 45 seconds which is a bit too slow, or maybe not but I would have hoped it was faster. It gives a pace of 5:04 minutes/Km and I hoped it was under 5:00. Ok, maybe I can’t expect to be under 5:00 minutes/Km now I make the run longer and longer and still keeping the pulse under 150. Maybe it’s just because I didn’t feel too good today. Yesterday I was feeling quite bad, today I was just a bit unwell.

I’m running again Thursday, but shorter (5440 meters) and with a higher max. pulse of 160 and I’m looking very much forward to see what pace I can do then….
