The Veluwezoom trail run went as planned today. The goal was an average pace of 7min/km. To achieve that, I'd decided to run the first 20km at my base heart rate of 129. If I still had some energy left in the last 10km, I could let go. And that's pretty much how it went. Although the heat and high humidity also caused a slight increase in heart rate.
Final verdict: Mission accomplished! 😊✅

You might run into @npub1xmw…4d4d while roaming the cake shops 😃 .
But that sounds like a nice plan.
The problem I encounter with (non-competitive) fastpacking compared to bikepacking is that I can only run (enjoyable) a few hours a day. So what to do the remaining time? So your plan of traveling a part of Friday compensates for that.

Easy run with the statistic inevitable fall 😆.
Luckily no injuries, just some scratches.

Ahaa! I hope they make you an offer you cant refuse 😉

Up until now I have been reluctant to do back-2-back runs. Always 1 recovery day between runs.
But after a few years of continues running and strength training I am now ready to try to run 2 days in a row again.
I hope that my body has become strong enough in the meantime to keep injuries at bay
.
So from today 4 runs per week of which 2 on consecutive days.

The beautiful winter sun kept calling me today. So I quickly packed my things for a nice long hike. On the way I couldn't resist the temptation to jog a bit (but I saved my energy for the long run tomorrow 😁).

Back at home I rowed for 15 minutes on the #concept2 and finished the planned strength workout.

Now put my legs up and watch a movie with my #valentine. Great afternoon!

That's exactly what makes the difference. On the other hand. In summer the opposite applies. Go for a ride to cool down a bit by the wind 😊

Since I switched from cycling to (trail)running as my main sport, I notice that I am less and less motivated to go cycling outside in winter. I used to cycle outside all winter long, but now I prefer the warmth on the indoor trainer 😆. Running outside in winter is not an issue 🏃‍♂️✅

My running buddy Bas said he could really use them running the WildStrubel recently. Lessons Learned from that I want to bring them with me on the ARC50M.

That's what I am looking for. There are cheaper ones on the market but I am afraid they will break if I have to run on them for a long distance (worse case: ARC, 80km 😬 ).

Thanks!! Gonna check them 😃

@npub120q…r9jk @npub1pwa…yw5r
Guys, need your advice on good/not to expensive spikes for under my running shoes in case of icy/snowy condition.
Found these but I am not sure if they are suitable for running.
