Great to see you Ian! It sounds like a really good run with or without the tech. We were possibly doing our 3ks at exactly the same time this morning - you even popped into my head as I wondered how you were! A lovely photo of Misty 😊.
I adore Misty 😍 she is so cute. I’ve read that if we copied cats the way they stretched all the time we would be much less achey and more supple. Which is why the cat stretch is one of the best stretches I do! 🙂
Technology is wonderful when it works. Well done on the run 👍
We'll done on getting out and again for not turning back when your Tec failed 💪I also had weeks out and know how tough it is to get going again..but you did 🏃👏👏👏
Hopefully you get the watch problem sorted and you earpods charged all ready for the next Run 🙏
What was going i. with your watch? did you sort it? furlongs? thought that was cricket pitches, I did an hour walk once that recorded as a. hour yoga! So pleased to see you back running though Ian and Misty has the right idea
I think I have sorted the watch , it was acting funny last week and then I updated it a couple of days ago.Just done a reset and now looks ok , we will see !
Haha, I think Furlong's are a nautical measurement 😁
I had something similar once . My watch was telling me that whatever strange unit of length it was using I was doing it at 4.5 mins. As my running spreed was usually around 8 min/km at the time I have no idea what it was. And I was none the wiser when I got home as my watch battery also died partway round. I chalked it up to experience.
My best one was about a week or so ago when I had charged my watch, phone and headphones, switched Bluetooth in and connected my headphones, selected which podcast I was going to listen to and set off for my warm up walk. Then about 4 mins in I setup my watch to record my run when I started, pressed the start button on the podcast and then realised my fully charged headphones were still sitting in their case in my settee, at home!!!
SO, so glad that you got out and got a run done... tech' glitch or no tech' glitch! You ran and you felt okay!!! Slow is perfect... I did a 3K this morning too, slower than slow !
It is so good how we get to know instinctively, how far we have run and whether our pace is about the same or slower..
I did not run nekkie... I had Coach Cory with me ! But, maybe that was good, for you, for that first run back !
I feel that Misty has the right idea... relaxed and really chilled !
Isn't Misty so cute, lovely little cat, that's great that you are back running Ian, of course you know that you should be well hydrated and correctly updated your watch, sorry that your watch did not dis[play anything. so just as they say a naked run, one thing about running the same route is that you know where all the kilometres are without having a watch or Smartphone, I just hope you can sort things out on your watch for your next run, apart from the watch situation that was a nice 3k run you had.
Last week I had a sore hip but I still managed to run my mid-week run, it was 5K in a time of 44.04, I am glad to report that my hip is almost back to normal and on Wednesday (31/8) I ran my 116th (not) parkrun midweek 5K in a time of 34:45
My watch has stopped talking to me! I can't think what I've done to offend her! Relationships are such a mystery. Maybe it was because she was on when I popped in the shops and she had to keep saying running has been automatically stopped and then started again numerous times. Seeing other people look for where the voice had come from was amusing! But you're quite right, running without the gadgets is a slightly strange experience, and Naked is quite a good description.
Pleased to hear that you had a good run. These running watches seem to have a mind of their own. Hope it works for you on your next run-maybe threaten yo leave it at home if it misbehaves? .My Garmin has developed a white blob on the screen which covers part of the time countdown on my training plan so I end up practicing my mental maths based on the distance run and my average speed to work out how long I have to run!I see that Misty is not bothered by such trivia!
