Friday Fartlek Run: Garmin Recommended Tempo Run #1

Tempo is an intensity that means different things to different athletes and coaches. For me, I define Tempo as an effort comfortably below the Threshold pace. It is the sort of intensity that if you had to you could maintain for a duration longer than a half marathon. It is higher than the aerobic running pace, sort of in the mid-zone between the two levels. Spending more than 15-20 minutes at this intensity, helps the body practice clearing the small amount of lactic acid generated at this pace, without needing to slow down to do so. This is a perfect session for runners and triathletes running events up to full marathons and further.

New York Marathon

Best Laid Plans for NYC Marathon……

Running the New York Marathon has been on my bucket list for years. So it was pretty exciting to be amongst the 50,000 starters at this year’s event, made even more special with my daughter Tayla lining up next to me for what would be her first ever marathon.
I had heard it was like going to a street party, running through the five New York boroughs of Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Manhattan. Biggest marathon in the world. Thousands of fans lining the streets with cheering, bands, signs. Finishing in Central Park. What could be better?
