OK I have finally arrived at my hotel in Interlaken, Switzerland, just in 35 hours since I walked out of my front door in Melbourne, via:

tram
bus
plane
airport shuttle train

on foot

No wonder I'm exhausted! But I approve of the resultant view. :)

Question to the running community:

My favourite person has been using a polar watch for a couple years.
She went running 3-5 times a week, around 10k or sometimes more. She always run the speed that felt comfortable for her - not very fast, but she could run 2-3 hours if needed.
10 weeks ago, she programmed a polar pro running program for a half marathon. She has been following it closely doing slow Z2 runs/walks, and the required runs with Z3 and Z4 intervals.

Doing this, she realised:

  • For Z2, she mostly walks (running on trails, much elevation, altitude 750-1000m).
  • Her total k per week is much lower now than what she usually did before.
  • The polar running index has improved slightly by 2 points.
  • Figure for cardio load has gone down significantly.
  • Since starting the running program, the watch keeps warning her that she is detraining.
  • The estimated time for a half marathon in the app has decreased by 5 minutes.


2/3

rcr,
@rcr@mastodon.online avatar

It has caused quite a lot of frustration:

  • Keeping Z2 with walking feels silly.
  • She feels she cannot run the distances she would like to in the speed she would prefer.
  • It is upsetting that the watch constantly reports “detraining”
  • Ultimately, she feels she is actually loosing her condition.

Can you help us to make sense of this?
Do you have any advice?
Does it make sense to continue the program?


3/3

@bomkatt Thanks for the reply! Wie think the max pulse should be fairly accurate, but it might be worth checking the zones again.
But maybe your last advice might be the sensible thing to do... 🙂

For anyone looking for a stable and easy to use (Desktop Environment) that just works:

Give it a try! 😎

The project and all it's dev's and maintainers do a great job at producing a working desktop that is a breeze to use. :xfce:

Just back from a short run. 800m hillrepeats with 60eg. The tricky part was the 32°C (fels supposedly like 37°C) and the 75% humidity. Now trying to cool down, literally.
Photos from yesterday.

Zurück von eine kurzen Lauf. 800m Bergaufläufe mit 60Hm. Das knifflige war die Temparatur von 32°C (soll sich wie 37°C anfühlen) und die 75% Luftfeuchtigkeit. Versuche mich jetzt abzukühlen, im wahrsten Sinne.

Walking path in the clouds.
After the recent headlines about Boeing, it is kind of comforting to know where to walk away if there is an issue.

Fusspfad in den Wolken.
Nach all den Schlagzeilen über Boeing ist es doch beruhigend, zu wissen wohin man weglaufen kann bei einem Problem.

Another run done today. Was concerned I will have to do it in the rain.
But it didn't rain. It was snowing the whole time. 🌨❄🌨❄

Ein weiterer Lauf heute. Befürchtete, es wird im Regen sein.
Doch es hat nicht geregnet. Es hat die ganze Zeit geschneit. ❄🌨❄🌨

Say hello to another (3rd) member of infamous group, Sophie!🥰 She’s 9 months and that her first ride!😁 That trailer is far superior to the one we had before and it was a pleasure to tow it!🙈 @cycling @rower

Don't often travel by in . But this was very convenient. Except, they take all the possible personal data for the ticket.

Bin in selten mit dem unterwegs. Doch das war ganz angenehm.
Bloss wurden alle persönlichen Daten für das Billett abgefragt.

Blick in das Abteil eines Zugwagens. Es ist ein Wagen mit breiter Spurbreite, drei und zwei Sitze neben dem Gang. Auf den zuvorderst sichtbaren Sitzen liegt eine schlafende Frau.

Bike project for the evening: getting an old 1996 mountain bike back into rideable shape. Replaced old strap type pedals with Chester flat pedals. #BikeTooter #cycling #pedals #MTB

Vintage mountain bike with yellow hexagon stickers that look like honeycomb, with bright yellow pedals that match

@rcr@mastodon.online avatar

@ai6yr I used such strap pedals for years on my bicycles, really loved them. But I know, it is not everyone's cup of tea. It is advisable to have the reflexes in place to open them in time when stopping... 😂

I was looking something up in my 2023 spreadsheet and thought I'd share some interesting bits; the average temperature of my runs last year was 3°C, and wore pants 51 days of the year (for running). Did I mention I'm a giant nerd that tracks everything? 🤣

@WTL This is a very low average temperaturen it seems to me. You must be used to some fresh condition while running!

I like how Malaysians are so kwai* to line up to get into a public bus or LRT

  • Hokkien for "well behaved"
rcr,
@rcr@mastodon.online avatar

@liztai I am always amused how correct everyone lines up in Malaysia. When we were queueing last year at immigration, we were constantly rebuked by the security for stepping out of line. It was a big empty hall, there were at least 30 people in front of us, so we thought we could stand next to each other as family. No chance.
Don't experience this elsewhere in SEA.
