We just ran 4 miles after work
That’s about it too, nothing spectacular just a run, didn’t get our negative splits and was 2 minutes slower than the last 4 mile run but that was the week I took a holiday from work not the week I have worked through the night twice
It was hard but we did it and my vo2max increased by 1 point
Well done WillowandSola, I was going to say that we are on the same VO2 Max but I’ve just checked and I’ve gained a point too so I’m on 33. Mine doesn’t tell me my fitness age but I’m quite happy to accept yours of 54!
That’s 10 years younger than my real age. For me I just love to see it going up, one day I might be in the blue area, it has been a tough week, but we did it, Willow is in a hot bath and dinner is in a hot oven so I’m happy
😊
Still top 30% and another run in the plan done WillowandSola!! Well done to you both!! 🤗❤️
Thank you, we are chuffed
Good run for you W&S, after working to run 4 miles is excellent, I notice that your fitness age is 54, that certainly will make you very happy, I have not got an app that tells me my fitness age, probably is more than my actual age of 74, so it's better just not to know. 😊.
Al, I’ve read your posts and seen how far and how fast you run, your fitness age must be way lower than mine 😀
Took us over an hour that’s really slow but we’re tired before we started
👍 🏃🏾
Having seen your 5k and 10k times on here, there’s no way your fitness age is anywhere near 74!
Thanks UNM, as you say it's probably less than my actual age, not more.
Sounds like a great run, especially as it sounds like you're having a hectic week. Well done on your VO2 max 😊🎉
Thanks, we are happy about it
Excellent 💜
My vO₂Max went backwards!
Well done W&S. To do your 4 miles after the working week you have had is fantastic - two running miracles. I love reading your posts. Your drive is infectious 😉 and always perfectly timed to pick me up when I need it 🤗.
Aww thank you Delly-dot and yours have inspired us
Nice one... that blue zone is coming. I crept into it for a day, but it was a blip and the very next run put me back in the green... should have quit running 🤣🤣
Lol I was in the orange zone for months and the best I could think of was, well at least it’s not red
We all start somewhere... I was top end of orange when I got a watch, but I’d been running a while, I think if I’d had one from the start they’d have needed a new bit below red.
I was ok until i got sick and ended up in hospital in January, then as we increased running the vo2max went down and down, at one point it said my fitness age was 79 I was horrified
Haven’t looked at my fitness age for a little while... was scared of having to go back to school 🤣
Lol
You're an inspiration both of you! It's really hard to keep focussed when dealing with real life. It may not seem spectacular to you but yo those just starting out you are giving encouragement and goals to aim for. Well done W&S👍
Thanks Allbarron, we do love being able to run
Great effort! VO2 max is a fickle friend at the best of times but it seems to be smiling on you at present, so maybe it has mended its ways! Hope the work pressure eases...don't these people know that you have runs to do 🙄🙂🙂👏
Yes!
4 miles done ✅
Willow and Sola going places. You are on your train getting ready to step off at the platform for 10k 👏👏👏👏👏
I won’t attempt that after a long day at work but yes we are getting there
Week 2 run 3....
1 hard run per week
