Moving day...for one month, then off to Aruba...

Out extra early, 5:00am, this morning for an EASY recovery 8kms - 1:01:27, at an average / comfortable pace of 7:40/km with an Avg / Max HR of just 112 / 125 - A well deserved pat on the back for taking it easy this time.

With tomorrow, Monday, my regular weekly day off from racewalking, I will explore our new area to see how the roads and traffic are as I make plans for new racewalking routes in Week 5 - 8 of this strength 💪 building block.

Well, what just happened? Was it the Maurten Bicarb System 19???

I covered 12kms on the rolling hills in 1:25:17 with an average pace of 7:06/km and an Avg/Max HR of 137/157 bpm - too high overall - I will wait and hear from my coach on this one!!!

This was a negative split effort with the first 6k in 43:25 (7:14/km pace) and the second half in 41:52 (6:59/km) - 1:33 second faster second half.

I really need to make sure I rest and recover well over the next couple of days prior to going into Week 5 of my 8 Week Strength building block.

I am very happy with today's workout but my legs are already screaming 😱 at me.

Out for a much needed 6k recovery racewalk on very tired legs - Making sure to truly go easy!!!

I covered the 6kms in 46:30 at an average pace of 7:44/km with an Avg / Max HR of just 111 / 119 bpm.

I am very pleased with exercising the discipline required to hold back this morning - I should have been more alert ⚠️ two days ago when I was 15 seconds per kilometer faster for my easy effort.

Lesson learned...

Another Tempo Thursday in the books...

This early 🐦 was out and crushing a very good 10k racewalk in 1:12:27, averaging 7:14/km with an Avg/Max HR of 129/145 - Hmmmm! A bit high for the effort I put in today. Maybe I am still a bit tired from Tuesday's session.

It was out for a rewarding easy effort this morning (-1, feels like -4), covering 6k in 44:52, averaging 7:28/km with an Avg/Max HR of 117/128 bpm.

Week 4 of 8 in this strength training block started off with a BANG!

Finishing today's Full Norwegian with the identical distance (7.48kms) and pace average (6:57/km) as last weeks' fastest in this block, I am over the moon.

It was a beautiful morning and I took advantage of this, especially since I felt a bit tired after a couple of days with an average of 5 1/2 hours sleep.

I am now looking forward to tomorrow's easy 6k before "Hammer Day" Thursday

Well, what a gorgeous early racewalk before the dawn - the near full Hunter's Moon helped to light the way.

Out for an easy recovery 8k in 1:00:25, averaging 7:33/km with an Avg/Max HR of 118/132 bpm - a comfortable effort.

Now to just relax and enjoy the day....

Another surprising 😮 effort this morning ...

With legs a bit tired, it was out the door for a 12km racewalk on rolling hills. I covered the distance in 1:26:32, averaging 7:13/km pace, with an Avg/Max HR of just 120/139. Not bad at all.

The real surprise was my negative split with the first 6k in 43:55 (7:19/km) and the second 6k in 42:37 (7:06/km). Yup! Not bad for tired legs.

Finished off the morning with a lot of stretching and a hot shower before cooking up some French Toast and scrambled eggs 🥚. Yummy!

Due to the steady high winds, it was indoor again this morning...

After yesterday's hard progression session today was an easy recovery 6.3k which I completed in 48:12 at an average pace of 7:36/km and an Avg/Max HR of 117/133 bpm. This effort felt so smooth and comfortable - I could have continued for ever!!!!

It was a great time to test out, and break in, the new Saucony Kinvara 16th - Yes, another pair! These will be going to Aruba with me for my winter training camp. Lol! 😆

Time for a light nap before making my 'famous', well, tastes good to me, Spinach and beef/hot Italian sausage lasagna...yummy 😋

Well, nice turn around...

Five hours after a vertigo episode it was off to the indoor track to do a scheduled 10k tempo.

With my legs still feeling somewhat wobbly from this morning's dizziness, I started off slower than normal and eased my way into a 47 lap (10.2kms at 7:19/km with an Avg/Max HR of 131/153) light tempo that turned into a progression session.

I am very pleased with how well I responded to the morning vertigo and completing the workout strong.
