Ok confession. I'm a maths graduate who cant divide 5.5k by 2 to give correct turn around point. Si today was my 5k run. Ran trying to keep HR in lower zone - still needs some work. Glorious run along waterfront in Dundee. Last time I ran here was c25kw9r2 seems like a lifetime ago but it was 1st Oct. Looking forward to 5.5k on Saturday so still no park run. Happy running everyone

Nice job. I never worry about the maths, my tracker tells me when I’m half way, often a mile or two after I want it to 🤣

Haha...I used to do mental maths on my treadmill to pass the time. My personal problem is turning around...I'm ok if I can do a loop but just changing direction to head home seems to be mentally challenging to me 😒

Hope you didn't try turning round on the treadmill 😉 back on home turf tomorrow so just loops round university campus - even I can cope with that. Only have to concentrate on running slow as looking at stats yesterday I was still doing my race speed for 1st 3km

By race speed I mean HR through the roof, I've changed the intervals on my garmin so I look like i do more in zone 4 than 5. Recovery really fast but these big red bands still freak me out

Not what you're looking for?
