Good morning peeps :)
🌡️20°c 80% humidity @ 0517

Started today's long run with a slightly different 8km out, then and a familiar 13.1km home.

I went off too quickly, slowed on the trails, then took a tumble at 15, before a turtle-esque trundle home.

This is the 3rd time I've run 21.1km, it's also the slowest it's taken me - However; this is my 1st barefoot shoe half, and it has laid down a challenge for me to better for next time..

On 21st May, I'm planning to run a half marathon (21.1km) for Dementia UK.

Dementia affects not just the 900k diagnosed with it but also the loved ones around them, which I'm experiencing first hand through my grandmothers and father.

I've never been a big runner but I am determined to reach a half marathon this month so please encourage me with your donations: justgiving.com/page/21km-for-d

Has anyone had these spikes of HR on a Garmin watch? The first one coincided when it started pouring. I was also climbing fast but the vertical is odd. I snugged the watch at the top as I slowed down and I saw a sharp drop. It happened again a 2nd time but after that I also felt that my HR would climb more than normal. Eventually I slowed down a lot to control it. It has been two weeks of extreme stress and little sleep.But still…

Hoy he salido a entrenar normalmente, preparando la media maratón del domingo. El lunes tuve tirada larga, accidentada por una caída que afortunadamente solo me ha dejado unos raspones y un golpe fuertecillo en la escápula izquierda que ya casi no duele.

Y ya. De aquí al domingo casi todo descanso, salvo la pachanguita de bádminton del viernes. Y a consumir más carbohidratos de lo habitual (mañana toca pasta).
