A run for fun

22 Celsius in January is enough even to get this hibernating runner out on the road. The only PB this time was for the Garmin, it was online in 5 seconds. This made me very suspicious and yet speeds seemed ok. Perhaps reception is better in the States who knows. As for my atrophying muscles and calcium deposited joints, they had their share after 5 km, and by km 6 I was glad to be back home. I played around with the POSE type of technique focusing on impact, stride, and not landing on the heel, tried to keep the bounce going for 5km and suffered 2 days with my calves sounding their Swiss bell alarms. Tomorrow they call for -8C, I think i'll stay inside and read about you guys' runs.

  1. Well done Jason, for getting out and running. They tested all the alarms in Geneva today, what an odd custom. Anyway sore ankle so went to the pool today.
