I did my first track workout on Thursday. Felt good so went for a run yesterday. Took some wrong turns (live in a new city) and ended up doing 15 miles. Today is supposed to be my long run but I might just do a recovery run because I'm so tired!

That sounds like a blast! And a great way to explore. You’ve definitely earned some recovery

I took the last week off after rolling my ankle and it feels better so I'm going to try a run out today! We'll let it determine how far I go.

I'm training for a marathon the weekend after next. I'm excited for it. It's an evening event, and since the sun doesn't set till almost 11pm it should be really nice. I signed up for it on a whim last week after my long runs went super well and I felt good about my running, also after going for a few "barefoot" runs (wearing sandals), which is new for me. I ran a half marathon in my racing flats not long ago, but I think for this marathon I will stick to my regular distance running shoes.
It feels a bit weird not to be on a proper training schedule but I think my instincts are guiding me well at this point (and my endurance is still pretty high from an ultra two months ago).

What the hell watch... I'm pushing myself here, almost making 5min/km for the whole run and coming within 10-20 seconds of my 5km pb each time, and apparently I'm maintaining or in recovery....

A few features I really like in ActivityLog2 are the ability to chart aerobic efficiency over time, to do my own critical power/velocity analysis, and also just plot weekly volume (by time or distance). That way I have a multifaceted view of what's going on rather than just whatever Garmin finds worthy of highlighting.

Been feeling a little under the weather so missed my weekend run. Got out this morning though. It's getting darker and colder in the mornings here. Doesn't seem to affect how much I sweat.
