I feel so good, the run today was amazing! 12K without an effort. Put on a death metal playlist and felt the runner's euphoria in high speeds. My average speed is about 6,5min/km so this time I ran much faster, my race pace which is below 6 most of the time.

I think runs are like life, full of ups and downs and even a downhill doesn't mean it's going to be easy. The start and the midway of the route feel in parts effortless, but when it's near end, you'll start to count the amount that is left of it and when it's done oh boy. If my life ends up like this run, I'm happy.

Happy to be alive.

🎶 This is my life and I'm still amazed
I should have turned and walked all over
This is my life and I've now prevailed
And reached my goal
This is my time cause it's all erased
This is my time and I'm turning to you
It makes me strive in a conscious way
But not alone

@rolle
Read that and thought 6.5km/, that's not fast, I hike about 4 km/, oh wait, that's an hour. Moral of the story - details matter.
PS- I couldn't run 1km if, well I probably could if my life depended on it, but otherwise no.

@the5thColumnist Someone just pointed out my mistake, of course I meant 6,5min/km 😂 I'm not a superman.

@rolle 6.5 km / min sounds awfully fast. Maybe 6.5 min / km?

@harald Hahah you're correct! Fixing...

@rolle if I'd been a runner I probably wouldn't have noticed and just read it correctly. But I have a habit of calculating speeds between knots, km/h and m/s constantly so wanted to check.

@rolle Music is a great motivator, I usually gain a lot of speed from listening to music. But I do prefer audiobooks or podcasts. Nevertheless, I‘m happy it worked out that great for you! 💪🏻

@sebastianhahn Most of the time I listen to audibooks. But this time chose music. You're right, it's a booster.
