9km slow run to load the ankle a bit. Noticed that my other ankle clicks with every step at this speed. I sound like a drumset now.

Signs that it was a great run:
1. The shoes are caked with mud
2. The socks are caked with mud
3. The calves are caked with mud
4. The mud is caked with mud
I’m not looking forward to spring and its pollens!
20 minutes of constant running complete! I’m very happy with that! 🤩
Well, I had my first setback on my #CouchTo5K.
Today was supposed to be Week 5 Run 3, which is a 20 minute run. In the first couple of minutes I felt a lot of tightness and pain in my right calf (cramp maybe), so I slowed down to a walk. I was going to pack it in, but it loosened up again so I pushed on and started over. I had to take a couple of walk breaks in the middle, so I think I’m going to keep trying this session again every 2/3 days until I can nail it.
Still decent today though. Probably did about 18 minutes of running in total, with about 4 minutes of walking, so not all bad. It’s really stepped up a gear this week so just got to keep pushing myself!

Went for an ankle test run. I tried to apply "Impact moderating behaviour", a term I have seen in Mark Cucuzzella's book. I don't exactly know what it means, though, so I mostly tried to feel "light" :)

First run after FOSDEM. It feels really great to get back running, but oh boy did the conference take a toll on me.

Didn’t help that the majority of my last two runs were uphill. 😩

Première séance de ma prépa de mon premier semi marathon officiel, samedi 2 mai à Boulogne-sur-mer.
On dirait pas, mais c’était tranquille en fait. C’est juste qui va falloir songer à aller chez le coiffeur pour être plus aérodynamique !
My January running challenge is now completed - 31 days of running behind me. The rule was simple: run at least 2 km every day, any style. I definitely didn't always feel like running. Many times I ended up doing my 2 km on the treadmill (Zwift). It was nice not having to think "should I run today", but rather "what kind of run should I do today?".
I decided to finish with a long trail run despite the freezing temperatures (approximately -16 °C, equivalent to 3.2 °F, got a bit colder during the run). My snacks and my body froze before we even reached the halfway point, but I still enjoyed it!
Length: 24.24km
Total distance In January: 163.1 km.
Good people run 🫶

In 2013 I started a new running approach, which really worked well for me.
I ran back from work once a week, as far as I could, along the route of the Central line (usually starting near Tower Hill). I struggled to get past 3 miles for a while, but tried to get one station further along the central line each week, then get the tube the rest of the way. Once I got past the 3 mile pain barrier I ramped up fairly quickly, making 4.5 miles to Queensway OTD 2013, and getting up to 7 miles (to Shepherds bush).
Unfortunately I got an injury so didn't manage to sustain this distance -- and have recently just been doing short runs but trying to push back up to 3 miles. #running

Wednesday #Workout:
11 minutes of yoga for runners.
20 minutes of strength training.
20 minutes of shovelling snow.
7.1 KM of #Running (-20°C, -28 windchill, 80% humidity, and 10 KM/H wind).
Good workouts, run was pretty good… except I fell flat on my face while running through some deep snow, which made me laugh. Keep an eye on my @loops account, I guess. 🤣 I was fine, dusted myself off, and kept going. Opted to cut it a bit short, just in case. Picked up groceries, and got on with the day.
The season of running in t-shirts has started here ☀️
Pleasant light 5K jog during lunch break to get the blood pumping in the brain after a difficult night. I’m a happy Thib today.
Went to the physiotherapist today, and he didn't hold punches.
"All my patients that get injured while running, none of them have a physical issue. All of them overtrain, but that's because of underlying psychological issues."
Yo doc, you're supposed to wreck my legs with some training exercises, not break my soul with a diagnosis that hits way too close to home.
@thibaultamartin
But the good thing is, if you can get your trianing under control, maybe the psyche will be affected positively aswell.
I hope it makes sense to you.
