I signed up for the Paris Marathon on April 12, 2026.
-
Another morning run.
I dropped my kid off at school and then continued running for about an hour. Throughout the second half of it, I cranked my effort up slightly beyond my comfort zone, training my ability to push further on long runs.
One question from English Gardener stuck with me through the run: "If your dream were to come true this moment, here and now - would you be ready?" Would you? Would I?
Distance: 11.65k
Pace: 5'13"#CPH42 in 64 days.
Beautiful weather and great question!
I don't think I am right now!
Well done on pushing yourself a bit, will you do intervals at higher pace going into the last week's of training before the Copenhagen marathon?

Yes, intervals are on the program soon. They are not what the #NikeRunClub app does best, as it does not register the light running that takes place between the intervals - but it is what it is.

Is it because of the "auto pause" feature? Or something completely different?

#52weeks52halfmarathons is done, but I'm keeping the habit alive as I train for Copenhagen Marathon in two months.
Edit: the first half of the run, I felt sluggish and did not catch the wave. But I changed my playlist and made a challenge out of running against the wind, and so I managed to turn things around and make this run fun again.
Happy International Women's Day!!

It was a humid and cold morning, so the fog was heavy. Nevertheless, this run was a nice one.
This was an easy run, but to mix things up I added three hard sprints where I turned the effort to 9.5/10. The challenge was not so much the sprints as the aftermath (where I had to keep the pace steady rather let my tired legs slow down). It was fun.

A long run through the morning.
My training program has moved into the longest distances (21.1+), which is nice. My form is as it should be, I think, and today I was even able to increase pace through the last five km.
The weather is tricky now. Too warm and humid for a lot of clothes, but 2.5hrs ago it was too cold to wear less. There is much more light, though.
This was a good run, and I enjoyed it.

Way to go Aske!
Strong finish!
And yes, it's a gamble out there with the weather, for me it's always the wind that tricks me because I forgot to look at that part of the weather forecast

Two good colleagues, who live just by our workplace, had invited me to join their morning run before going to the office.
I am not really a run-together-with-other-people-and-talk person (because I do not fully control my own pace and effort), but this was a most enjoyable run nonetheless. And it was fun to see Roskilde University and the surrounding areas in a different way than I usually do.

Sounds like a really nice run to me, and always nice with a change of geography for the runs!

An utterly bonkers long morning run:
- I forgot my headphones, so I had no feedback about distance or pace (and no music)
- my app paused tracking - which I did not realize until ~5k later
- I ran in a rural area I had never been to beforeSo I got to YOLO my way through woods, countryside, and small towns. The sun was shining, and it got pleasantly warm). It was glorious.
Distance: 22.32k (measured post-run)
Pace: 5'40"#CPH42 in 48 days.

@askekammer Det virker som noget værre rod. Dejligt, at det - tilsyneladende? - ikke gik dig for meget på, og du alligevel fik en god tur ud af det

Det blev en værre rodebutik af en løbetur - ikke mindst fordi jeg aldrig rigtigt havde et overblik over distancen. (+ Nogle småveje lignede det sted, hvor teenagerne i en gyserfilm træffer en dårlig beslutning og fortsætter fremad.)
Men samtidig var det virkeligt flot i skovene og dejligt med solens varme. Og erfaring, grundform og en god stedsans forhindrede kriser. Jeg tog det, som det kom.
Alt i alt: En ok tur, og jeg skal helt sikkert løbe i det område (10 min. væk i bil) igen.

@askekammer Det er ret fedt, når erfaringen kan tage over og sige: “Bare rolig, vi har den”.
I det mindste var det en stille søndag morgen med masser af solskin, som kunne tage toppen af gyserstemningen på småvejene.

Jeg vidste slet ikke jeg skulle tænke gyser da jeg var i Hareskoven her til formiddag!
Der var fuld af glade mennesker og solskinsglæde synes jeg
Godt kommet ud @askekammer, det var noget af et eventyr, men det lyder som om det var mere spændende end irriterende.
Og fedt at finde noget nyt at løbe i

Today is election day in Denmark, and I started it with an easy morning run.
Spring is coming, and I look forward to brighter days.
Have a good one.

Godt valg!
Og dejligt tempo du kører hvis det er stille og roligt!!
Jeg glæder mig også allerede til de længere dage, synes heldigvis jeg kan mærke det allerede

Tak, i lige måde.
Tempoet var rigtigt fint i dag, selvom jeg aldrig rigtigt pressede på. Det bliver stadig tydeligere, at grundformen er god efter kontinuerlige (både korte og lange) vinter-ture.
Og ja, jeg kan nu løbe i shorts og uden lys-vest. Så det går fremad.

Ja, jeg synes det lyder som en super grundform du har fået bygget op!
Det tager jo noget tid, men kontinuitet i træningen er virkelig det der giver resultater!
Jeg minder lige mig selv om at jeg er startet op igen for mindre end 1 år siden.
