Pretty a regular one, however, the data (.tcx taken from strava) are good, and some nice looking plots were produced as a result. The data presented in a human-friendly format really improve the understanding of how parameters in the running stats are linked together. This time it will be about distance, elevation grade, speed and heart rate. The idea is to use that for boosting running performance.
An easy 12km run, well known terrain, a short looped route - perfect conditions to compare elevation data coming from raw .tcx files. Given the previous experience with glitches, fluctuations and unexpected values of elevation in the stats, it's really interesting to know, which platforms offer more reliable data.
Practically, a night run. Pretty flat and steady in terms of pace, except of a mild downhill part around km 6, which was relatively fast.
What's interesting here is that the heart rate is aligned with the speed in the first half, however, it is well above the expected level in the second part of t...
This one felt a little bit easier than a 25km run the day before, probably due to lighter and bouncier shoes. Light conditions were also somewhat better, street lights were present practically everywhere along the route.
To give an idea on what this blog is going to look like, let's start with a 25k Sunday run on 25th of January.
