Running General Chat - Weekly Thread Sat 16 November 2024

Just a general thread about running. How's your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

Went on a run for the first time in a month after a bad sprained ankle in early October. Really hoping I'm in the clear and don't wake up limping tomorrow because it felt great to get back out there.
I love running
New Parkrun for me this morning. Along a creek, looks nice, trying for an easy run today.
- .... PB ...woo
  
  Nice! Was that the easy run you were hoping for? 😅
  
  Congrats!!
I went on a longer run this week. It felt really great. I'm torn if I should continue using a tracker. I'm just so tired of data and this incessant pressure to track everything. But at the same time I want to get better and data would definitely help.
- There’s no need to look at the data now, but it can help in the future.
  
  When I’m feeling discouraged, I look at my resting heart rate trend over the last 6 months, and my vo2 max trend, and it convinces me to keep going
Finally recovered after an injury. The weather is cooler and running is feeling good again!
