Wk1 Run 3 of JuJus Magic Plan Distance

Like my last 5K I was going to have a nice , easy pace run and enjoy it . Just needed to add 500m onto the route . I’m enjoying putting my thoughts into routes rather than stats . I have to say though, that early on in the run, I began to get a bit concerned about the stats πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

The β€˜man from Strava β€˜ kept telling me things that just were not so ! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

What can I say πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ The stats speak for themselves .

I think I have a Garmin problem or satellites? πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Distance 5.5K βœ…. Time 30:39 πŸ€” AvePace 5:34 Km πŸ˜²πŸ€”

Wait ! it gets better πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ€£

Best Km pace 3:53 πŸ₯΅πŸ€£πŸ₯΅. Best Pace 3:02 πŸ₯΅πŸ₯΅

Average speed 10.8 Km/h πŸ† fastest speed 19.8 Km/h πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†

Elevation 56,041 πŸ”πŸ”πŸ₯Ά

β€˜Sea Running’ 10Km 🐬🐬

So all the pictures tell the story πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

My stats are I ran 5.5 K , at a steady happy pace and 10/10 for enjoyment 😊

I used NRC β€˜I need this Run’ as recommended by Blossom- , I’ve run with Coach Bennett a few times but this one was a good one . Only 20 mins but it was the only accurate bit of the run πŸ˜‚πŸ‘Œ

I went a walk with the dog afterwards and the walk showed me starting about 8 miles away ,up a hill and again the dog and I were walking on the North Sea .

Anyone had this before ? is it a complex thing like switching it off then on ? πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚

Good run once I decided not to bother about it all though πŸ‘Œ

Wow! Certainly is epic! And all so fast! No I haven't had this happen with my phone strava ....only very straight lines when I was low in battery!

It was certainly some run πŸ˜‚ my brain knew I wasn’t running at those speeds though but it was strange having the Strava guy telling me I was πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I won’t complain about my hills again πŸ”πŸ”πŸ”

...this is why I use multiple apps πŸ™„

There’s nothing more disappointing than to get home, eager to see your stats...and find a pile of πŸ’©

Not had it for a while...used to happen with Map My Walk...the dreaded straight lines cutting corners, or going off at weird angles 🀨

So at least it tracked your distances ok...which is the main thing! Sounded like a lovely run πŸ‘πŸ»

...running with dolphins though...sounds like fun 🐬

I was annoyed at first but then it got so ridiculous I thought it was quite funny .Just what I needed possibly in my new β€˜simplify’ mode but I wanted to check the pace of my β€˜this feels good pace’ and I know it wasn’t anything that started with a 5 πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

Theres β€˜doing a coastal run’ but across the sea is taking it a bit far πŸ™„πŸ™„

Happy to have done the 5.5K , nice route I will use as a template for the increasing distances 😊

The Garmin needs to sort itself out though πŸ₯΅πŸ₯΅

Garmin blew out on me too. The satellite thing expired on 12/31 for many users. I was very frustrated yesterday when Garmin had me starting across the river, running across water, and covering .5k in about 5 seconds. Second run that that happened. But I checked my watch "about" info last night and it now appears to have updated. Which it had not before I set off yesterday morning. You get to it by going to settings, about, and then scroll through the screens and look for CPE. It will say either current or expired. Recommendations for getting it to update are to take it outside and get the GPS going and then leave it in GPS without starting a workout for a few minutes if it says expired. Not sure if that is what did it for me or not.

Thank you for taking the time to give me this info ., really helpful and useful to know.I followed your path and my Garmin says β€˜current’ , so I’m hoping it’s updated itself . My dog walk today seemed to make sense too , no β€˜walking on water’ and no quick ascent of Everest πŸ˜‚ so all good hopefully πŸ‘Œ

I think I’ll keep the stats and Pb’s as a reminder of my β€˜golden run’ πŸ˜‰β˜ΊοΈ

So you’re giving the dolphins a run for their money now?! 😯🀣 Ha ha!

With those screen shots you could phone up Coach Bennett and ask to join his crew!

10/10 for enjoyment makes this an astounding WIN✨ Well done you for being able to look past it all and just enjoy the simply act of running. I will learn from this πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’•

Happy continued running x
