Run -- 12.53k, 1:22:12
Notes
66k, 6:37 time on feet this week. Nice.
Mixing units, but that's the first 40 mile week I've ever done. No deliberate effort to extend things, just got a bit more efficient with morning routine so those runs had the space to be a bit longer. No plans to extend things either, for a while, just settle here and see what happens.
Maybe I'll take the long run out to 90-100 mins now and then. I'm nominally training for a half in October (though really just training to be faster generally without any peaking in mind), so makes sense for LR to be at least as long as I am aiming to do that in (1:25-1:30 I guess I'm thinking atm, since those map to ~18:30-19:30 5k, which I think given my training/current rate of improvement is a reasonable range to expect to be in).
Noticed that sometimes my HR Strap disconnects from watch if I wait to long to start. Wonder if that happened at the 5k (was like 20 mins milling around between arriving and starting the race, and I don't remember if I checked to re-pair the strap) and if so if the HR reading I got from that race is just stride-locked nonsense. Coros app a bit opaque when it comes to telling you whether a device was connected for a give neffort, as far as I can tell so far.
ETA: Average 3450 kcal last week and that was enough to maintain weight. That said, even with cereal, nut butter, smoothies, and biscuits that's just a lot of effort and a bit of a struggle digestion-wise. Might just go with the grace of god and return to appetite-based eating and just ride this where it takes me. Shouldn't lose too much muscle given I'm still keeping up a reasonable effort lifting wise.
