Another running recap!

Training load peak is just passed. Now the running load is lowering a bit to increase form until the 5k race. And last week i already secured a 5k improvement! During "RunWalkRun" exercise i did a race test and got at 7s to the target time 💪

The other days i did the usual exercises and indoor bike training. BTW in just 1 week we went from ~20°C to ~10°C...it was a bit of a shock for running but i handled it...

But today was a bad day for me...i think i injured myself during today run...
After around 10m of warm up i had to do "magic mile" (1mi at sustained speed). Almost near the end i felt pain in the biceps femoris zone. I lowered the pace and then walked back. Pain still here, can't walk normally now (can't extend correctly the leg).
Tomorrow will try to do some indoor bike to see if i have pain also with cycling or not. If yes i have to stop for some days and do some other exercises (stretch or else).

Despite the injury i run at just 2s from my 1mi PR...so the disappointment to what i can do in the next weeks (5k "race is in 2 weeks) is even higher...

2 weeks and half passed since my last running recap and it's time to do another one.
In this phase the plan consist in increase resistance and speed.
I have to do longer version of the exercises (more reps or more km to do).
I also increased "manually" the training days from 3 to 4 to grab garmin badges improve faster my form. 😛
In the middle of the week i still do low intensity indoor cycling training while in the weekends i do some walking or some low effort cardio exercises.
After a month of garmin saying "unproductive" training status and lowering my running VO2 from 51 to 48 now it finally switched to "maintaining". I don't know exactly what caused it, i just followed the plan, maybe because my load while commute by bike was higher? I don't have a clue.
Despite what it said i improved both 1km and 1mi PR since last post...well i just shaved by 0.1s the 1km today but still 😛 (1mi PR improved by 6s)

Today is exactly 1 month to the 5k test...will i make it to improve my best? 😀
Let's see...
