Slowdown

I’m training to run and stay in zone 2 for 2 months…I am starting august and will see the results in October.

It’s weird though… This kind of training, this is not the same training I knew, to stay in zone 2 method is not pushing you to your edge capacity, this is the training to hold your ego. I have to walk every time the Garmin shows my heart rate is already at 140 BPM. I wait until it decreases, around 112 and then I’ll start running slowly .. on repeat to the distance of your choice. I choose 5k.

See .. even a slow runner like me feels this training is so … Slow. I know I can run faster than this… But then… The stats. Those boring statistics give me a completely different story. Even though I walk most of the time, the 5k that I do strictly in zone 2 is completed in similar time to the run I did without zone 2 technique! 🙄🙄 Boff.

So, I’ll continue this boring zone 2 technique.

Stay healthy my lovelies.
