Just two more weeks until the training plan ends and I’m running a virtual 10K race to beat my PR. I have messed up the training schedule a bit since Coach Greg actually thinks I’ve still got three weeks to go. So for next two weeks I have three easy runs, two versions of goal …

It’s week 4 of my training plan towards a faster 10K with Garmin Coach and it’s been an interesting week. Besides the workouts selected for me by my virtual Coach Greg, I will also be running my first virtual race. All races for the coming weeks have been cancelled and it’s unclear at the moment …

It’s the second week of my training towards a faster 10K with Garmin Coach. I did lots of speed work, a tiny bit of strength training, one easy run and I skipped a run. The social distancing is impacting my mood, some days in good ways and some days in bad ways. Strength training is …

After finally running my first half marathon two weeks ago I had many plans to continue training and racing after that. I wanted to share those plans with you, but since all races in my area have been cancelled or postponed I’m not seeing much point in that. Instead, I present you: plan B! Plan B …
