-1 Celsius Tuesday threshold run popsin park

 It felt warmer at popsin than on top of the coulee, -1 Celsius Tuesday threshold run popsin park

I get running with Dixie a threshold run.

🏃‍♂️ almost 4 km and 35 minutes.  I actually ended it short cause I didn’t want to double back on my run at the end for 3-4 minutes 🏃‍♂️ 

My average heart rate was 164 bpm in zone four for most my run in a heart rate variable.

My warm-up and cool down didn’t exactly meet any zone one or two for very long. It was definitely a threshold holder on..

I was supposed to do a cool down for 10 minutes, but I just did seven minutes and a half.  As I said for warm up and cool down, it was intense for me.

How a threshold looked for me with walking and running. 🏃‍♂️ 

Dixie climb to 31 for the leadership board for March.  She is doing great. 😊 

After a run, I pull her close to me to take a photo not very many photo opportunities on the run just trying to keep up with the threshold.

But at the end of the run, I took a quick two photos.

Says it’s minus one, but I felt a lot warmer and pops Park and I was sweating a lot when I go on the van I put pull down all all the windows 🪟 in the vehicle 

🚗 

Dixie sleep quality is great but her sleep interruptions is quite a lot 71 sleep interruptions For an average week.

My heart rate was climbed up to 176 bpm for a part of the run, which was a max.  Runtime in the stats was exactly more than double of my walk, which makes me feel good with this threshold and usually it’s just half-and-half.

Idle time sitting on the bench or picking up two dog poos was about two minutes and 17 seconds I sat at the bench frequently for about 15 to 30 seconds to stretch out my calves so I wouldn’t get shin splints

And to relieve a little bit of muscle pain in my shins and feet.

👣 

I had some drills today I was doing in my run, each to improve my posture while running, I watched a short 3 minute clip for 1/2 hour watching the technique and writing down different drills to try while running to relieve some of those muscles in the run. 🏃‍♂️ 

Over all my maximum on running was running within my pace range, it definitely does know my limitations where I can build on my training. With out going in zone 5 and staying in zone 4 which was the threshold for bpm.  A good coach, 

Looking forward to Kim and my walk tonight will try to add more later today to add to the blog with Kim and I run. 🏃‍♂️

Snowboarding week I was well above my weekly range from family day snowboarding 🏂 

Manage to still get some runs in and was above my weekly range

Fell below my weekly range beginning of March 

Another week below weekly range second week of March 

Third week got myself back into consistent training got to keep myself here so I don’t over do it.  And get below average again.  For two weeks
